The whole network is telling you that don't make big glass when sealing the balcony, don't make big glass, but there are still many people who like it, like its appearance, even if you spend several times more money, don't want the vertical bar in the middle.
There is it to a large glass floor-to-ceiling window.
Obsessive friends, since I can't convince you not to make big glass, then I summarized this big glass guide you can take a look, I will help you avoid the big pit of big glass from the glass selection of doors and windows, profile structure and installation and landing.
1. Why is it expensive to choose large glass?
The main reason is the difficulty of the process, the general small factory equipment is not large enough, so a lot of large enough glass is shipped from other places, which increases the cost of long-distance and short-distance transportation.
Secondly, the glass is easy to be damaged during transportation, because the value is high, so the large glass business will generally bear the transportation insurance, and finally, the equipment and labor used in the hoisting process of the large glass are higher than the general ordinary glass, so it is not recommended to do too cheap large glass, because any mistake in the middle of the link may make you lose more than you gain.
Then there is the size and thickness of the glass, the larger the glass, the thicker the glass, otherwise the glass will be shaky, basically according to this formula to choose. Warm reminder, it is recommended to choose ultra-clear glass for large glass, which is more transparent, mainly because the self-explosion rate can be reduced from 3/10000 to 1/10,000, which is safer.
Second, if the profile structure first has to make large glass, do not consider the old national standard 14. The wall thickness is thick, and the wall thickness of the load-bearing part should reach at least 18 or more. Secondly, it is necessary to choose a heavy-duty crimping process, a special heavy-duty crimping line for large glass, and a wall thickness of 20. The material is solid and more reliable, and the process of screwing and fixing the crimping line is adopted, which will never fall off and be more stable.
Third, the weight of the installation of the floor glass is very heavy, we must pay attention to the installation, the screws inside and outside the cross must not hit the heat insulation strip, the screws are stainless steel cloth screws or self-cutting screws, do not use small yellow croaker. Secondly, the installation of the large glass glue must not be saved, and the sealant is applied at the interface between the inside of the glass and the bottom of the profile, which is both stable and sealed. Share these with your decorator to ensure that you don't step on the big glass.
