Casement door or sliding door? Choose the right door based on your space needs!

Space Occupancy

The hinges of the casement door need to be fixed on one side of the door frame, , opening the door to the door shaft as the center of the rotating open, need to reserve fan-shaped area, open and close will occupy a certain amount of space, so it is not suitable for smaller occasions; on the contrary, the sliding door sliding horizontally, only occupies the doorway on one side or on both sides of the wall space or only need to be installed at the top of the top or on the ground installation of the track can be. This way of opening will not reduce the utilization of space, will not affect the placement of furniture, especially suitable for small spaces.

Sealing 
The most important thing about a door is the seal. If the door is not sealed properly, it will not only be poorly insulated, but will also generate noise. Different opening methods have different sealing effects. Because the sliding door is composed of two or more leaves, in order to maintain the distance between the push and pull, must be connected to the door with a cone, so its airtightness is worse than the sliding door. Casement doors do not have this problem and therefore seal much better than sliding doors.
