When choosing the material and model of doors and windows, you need to consider multiple factors, including the overall style of the house, safety, sound insulation and thermal insulation performance, service life, maintenance difficulty, and budget. The following are some specific selection suggestions.
Material selection
- Aluminum alloy doors and windows have the advantages of high strength, light weight, and corrosion resistance, and are moderately priced, making them a more common choice. When choosing aluminum alloy doors and windows, you should pay attention to the wall thickness of the aluminum profile. The new national standard requires the wall thickness to be no less than 1.8mm to ensure the stability and safety of the doors and windows. In addition, you should also pay attention to the glass selection of aluminum alloy doors and windows. It is recommended to choose explosion-proof tempered glass that has passed the 3C safety certification to improve safety.
- UPVC doors and windows have good sound insulation and thermal insulation performance, and are suitable for occasions that require higher sound insulation and thermal insulation requirements. At the same time, UPVC doors and windows also have a long service life and low maintenance costs.
- Wooden doors and windows have the advantages of natural beauty and environmental protection, but their prices are high and they require frequent maintenance. They are suitable for occasions with high requirements for beauty and environmental protection.
Model selection
- Choose a model based on the use of the house: Aluminum alloy doors and windows are generally divided into five grades: 60, 70, 80, 90 and 100 according to their models. The numbers represent the thickness of the door and window frames in mm. Generally speaking, the 60 series is suitable for ordinary residences, the 70 series is suitable for mid-to-high-end residences, the 80 series is suitable for villas and high-end residences, the 90 series is suitable for commercial buildings and high-rise residences, and the 100 series is suitable for high-end customized doors and windows. When choosing a model, factors such as the size and position of the windows should be considered to ensure the stability and safety of the doors and windows.
- Consider the lighting, sound insulation and anti-theft performance of doors and windows: Different models of doors and windows have different lighting, sound insulation and anti-theft performance. When choosing a model, you should weigh and choose according to your needs. For example, if you need better sound insulation performance, you can choose doors and windows made of broken bridge aluminum alloy or plastic steel; if you need higher lighting performance, you can choose larger models of doors and windows.
- Consider the cost issue: The prices of different models of doors and windows vary. When choosing a model, you should consider your budget and cost. Generally speaking, larger models of doors and windows are more expensive, but they also perform better; smaller models of doors and windows are cheaper, but the performance may be compromised. Therefore, when choosing a model, you need to weigh and choose according to your actual situation.
