Separate spaces with sliding doors

Spatial flow

One of the main advantages of sliding doors is their ability to create a continuous flow in space. When open, they can fluidly link two rooms together, turning them into a single large space. And if you need to divide the spaces again, simply close the sliding doors to achieve the confinement you want. This makes it possible to extend the views of the floor and therefore the floor is perceived more widely.

Mobile panels for maximum flexibility

If you're looking to take flexibility to the next level, mobile panels are the solution. The panel may consist of several doors or one large door. These are the ultimate expression of sliding doors, since they allow you to fully open a partition. Mobile panels are ideal for projects where you want an unimpeded transition between two spaces. You can create a sense of unity in a room, and at the same time, have the option of separating it when necessary. This makes a home very flexible in its uses, allowing you to carry out several different activities in the same space.

Soundproofing

One of the drawbacks of sliding doors is that they offer less soundproofing compared to traditional swing doors. Because they don't close as tightly, sound and privacy may not be as effective. In this case, the decision to install a sliding door will depend on the type of life that takes place between the two spaces. For example, if a room directly faces the living room and the house is home to a person who sleeps a lot and another who is going to sleep soon, it would not be recommended. In this case, it is better to distribute the house in a day area and a night area. On the other hand, there are uses that complement each other perfectly, such as the dining room and the kitchen, and do not require acoustic insulation.

Excellent in small spaces

Another important aspect when choosing them is the available interior space, and in small spaces, every inch counts. Sliding doors are an excellent solution in such situations, since they move parallel to the wall instead of opening with a swivel radius that takes up space. In addition, once opened, they do not take up as much space in the transit area as the hinged doors, which will never be completely folded against the wall. In small floors, it is preferable to sacrifice some sound insulation to make the most of the available space.

Precision in design and installation

When installing sliding doors, precision is essential, especially if the doors are larger than normal. The placement must be designed very well to reduce tolerances as much as possible and that the spaces left between floor, ceiling and walls are as small as possible, ensuring that they work properly. A poor fit or poor design can result in operational problems and an unprofessional appearance.

In short, sliding doors are a versatile and elegant solution for separating environments into architecture and interior design projects. Their ability to create flow in space, their versatility, and their adaptability to different space sizes make them an essential choice for any project. However, it's important to consider who and how will live in that space to design the best solution. With a good design, sliding doors can completely transform the functionality and appearance of a space, making your project even more impressive.
