In individual decoration projects, balcony sealing is generally required, especially for those who live on the ground floor of the building or open balcony, and the balcony should be treated. Encapsulating the balcony can play the following roles:
First, it is safer: after the balcony is sealed, the house has an extra layer of protection net, which will set a big obstacle for criminals when social security is not good, and can play a role in safety prevention.
the second is cleanliness and hygiene: after the balcony is closed, there is an extra layer of window to block dust, which effectively blocks the invasion of wind, sand, dust and rain. The indoor sanitary condition is better than that of households without balcony, and you can rest assured to dry clothes without worrying that the clothes that have just been dried will be blown away by the wind.
the third is to expand the scope of use: in the case of tight living conditions, the closed balcony can be used as a space for writing, reading, goods storage, fitness and exercise, and also as a living space. Compared with when the balcony is not sealed, the use forms are more diverse, which increases the use area of the room.
1. Balcony packaging form:
Balcony can be divided into two packaging forms. One is the anti-theft net sealing method, which can only achieve the effect of security and anti-theft, and other functions can not be exerted, so it can be adopted if the living conditions permit and are loose; The other is to block in the form of windows, which is the most common form.
2. Balcony sealing material
(1) Solid wood window: (advantages) It can make rich shapes, use a variety of colors, and have good decorative effect. (Disadvantages) Wood has poor anti-aging ability, large changes in cold and hot expansion, and is easily corroded after sun and rain.
(2) Ordinary aluminum alloy window: (Advantages) It has good weather resistance and aging resistance. (Disadvantages) The heat insulation is not as good as other materials, and the colors are only white and tea.
(3) Plastic steel window: (Advantages) It has good sound insulation, heat insulation, fire prevention, air tightness, water tightness, corrosion resistance and heat preservation. (Disadvantages) After all, it is a PVC plastic profile. After a long time, the surface will turn yellow and the window will be deformed. The service life is 2-3 years.
(4) Broken bridge aluminum alloy window: (Advantages) Aluminum with a thickness of more than 1.4 is added with a heat insulation layer on the basis of all; It also has good sound insulation, heat insulation, fire prevention, air tightness, water tightness, corrosion resistance, heat preservation, maintenance-free and so on; It is a metallic aluminum profile that can be used for a long time without deformation or fading. (Disadvantages) The price of aluminum is expensive and the production cost is relatively high.
(5) frameless window: (Advantages) It has good lighting, maximum air convection, beautiful appearance and easy folding. (Disadvantages) Poor thermal insulation, poor sealing and poor sound insulation.
summary of cost performance: under normal circumstances, solid wood windows and ordinary broken bridge aluminum alloy windows will not be selected; The most used material is plastic-steel window, the price of which is generally between 15-6 yuan/square meter, which is acceptable to most people. The cost performance of plastic-steel window is the main factor for its hot sale. Broken bridge and broken alloy is a new type of material that has only appeared in recent years. Many of its properties can be compared with plastic steel, and it is more durable than plastic steel. The price is generally 4-12 yuan/square meter, which is generally used in villas and high-grade sun rooms. Only a few people follow the trend and use frameless window products, and the price of frameless windows will generally be between 36-7 yuan/square meter.
