Material and type

1. Tempered glass: With compressive stress on the surface, also known as reinforced glass, it has high strength and superior wind pressure resistance. It can withstand a temperature difference of 200 ° C, and its strength is 3 to 5 times that of ordinary glass, effectively preventing debris from injuring people. When making a selection, please ensure that the glass has a 3C certification mark.

2. Low emissivity coated glass (Low-e): Anti UV, with insulation and thermal insulation effects. According to the transmittance, it is divided into low transmittance, medium transmittance, and high transmittance Low-e. The commonly used one on the market is high transmittance Low-e, with a transmittance of about 62%.

3. Laminated glass: composed of two or more pieces of glass and an organic polymer intermediate film, which are permanently bonded to the intermediate film after special processing. When broken, the fragments are tightly attached to the middle layer, enhancing safety. It has excellent sound insulation and high strength, especially suitable for exposed balconies and guardrails.

4. Hollow glass: composed of two or more pieces of glass, forming an interlayer structure with a dry gas space. It has the advantages of energy conservation, sound insulation, and anti condensation, and is often used in places such as exterior windows, balcony sliding doors, sunrooms, and indoor partitions.

 

Performance and Standards

1. Sound insulation performance: The sound insulation performance determines the noise protection ability of the window. Choosing appropriate soundproof glass can reduce background noise and improve the comfort of living or working environments.

2. UV protection performance: The UV protection performance determines the UV protection ability of the window. Choosing glass with good UV resistance can protect indoor items and personnel from UV damage.

3. Insulation performance: Especially in cold areas and places that require insulation, glass with good insulation performance can enhance energy-saving effects.

4. Safety: Choose glass that meets local safety standards, such as performance requirements such as impact resistance and wind pressure resistance. Ensuring that glass meets these high standards helps ensure the safety of residents.

 

Specifications and craftsmanship

1. Thickness: The thickness of the glass determines the insulation performance and safety of the window. Generally speaking, the thicker the thickness, the better the insulation performance and safety.

2. Transparency: Transparency determines the lighting performance of windows. Appropriate transparency means that glass has a clear appearance, neither too transparent nor too opaque, which helps light pass through and provides a good view.

3. Processing technology: including cutting, edge grinding, tempering, and other processes. Appropriate processes ensure the quality and safety of glass.

 

Other considerations

1. Budget: Select the appropriate glass type and quality based on individual or project budget.

2. Aesthetics: Consider whether the appearance and style of the glass are coordinated with the overall building or interior decoration.

3. Maintenance and upkeep: Understand the cleaning and maintenance requirements of glass to ensure its long-term good performance and appearance.

When selecting door and window glass, it is necessary to comprehensively consider material, performance, specifications, craftsmanship, and other factors. By carefully comparing and evaluating different options, you can choose the door and window glass that best suits your needs.
