For sliding door track, do you choose hanging rail or ground rack? Netizens hold different opinions. Some netizens think that the traditional ground rack sliding door is more reliable; Others think that the sliding door of the hanging rail is more fashionable and practical; The remaining netizens are very confused and have different opinions. I don't know which is better? Today, I will talk to you in detail about whether to choose the hanging rail or sliding door for ground rack.
Sliding door is very convenient to use and beautiful, which is favored by many families. Ground rack sliding door is the most common and widely used type of sliding door, so you may choose it partly because of the mentality of conformity;
the service life of ground rack sliding door is longer; Generally ground rack sliding door in order to fix the door leaf, you need to bear a lot of pressure when using it at ordinary times. Ground rack can distribute the pressure to the entire ground rack track and disperse the power, stronger durability and longer service life.
Ground rack sliding door can better play the functions of heat preservation, sound insulation, and lampblack blocking;
ground rack sliding door uses the ground track. After closing the door, it can effectively block the sound and lampblack (kitchen) of the functional areas on both sides, and the heat preservation effect is also very good in winter.
Ground rack sliding door is easier to install. Weight capacity is mainly on the ground without climbing. The installation is safe and stable.
However, ground rack and sliding door also have their own disadvantages: the convex part of the track installed on the ground is easy to trip family members (especially the elderly and children in the family); The convex part of ground rack, after a long period of time, it is easy to hide dirt, which brings difficulties to cleaning.
Compared with sliding door ground rack, the hanging rail sliding door is more fashionable, beautiful, and better in appearance.
Hanging rail sliding door hides the track in the top door frame, which can be said to be "invisible" design. There is no direct contact with the ground below, and it is in a suspended state. It is very convenient to clean the bathroom on the ground, it is also conducive to ensuring indoor hygiene. The hanging rail track is on the top surface, and there is no obstacle to the track on the ground. Children and the elderly are unimpeded and will not trip, which can ensure the safety of their families.
Similarly, the hanging rail sliding door also has disadvantages:
because the hanging rail track is in the top door frame, the whole weight capacity is on both sides of the wall and the top track. At this time, there are certain requirements for the track and wall (high cost): the quality requirements of track hardware are extremely high; The walls on both sides must be solid walls.
Poor sealing (sound insulation, lampblack insulation and poor thermal insulation) especially in kitchens, it is not recommended to install hanging rail sliding door in kitchens with heavy lampblack. If the hanging rail didn't need to be slotted on the ground, I would never install this kind of sliding door! The service life is less than ground rack sliding door.
Generally speaking, the hanging rail and ground rack sliding door have their own advantages and disadvantages. We recommend that you choose sliding door with upper and lower tracks, which is more stable and safe to use, as long as you clean them frequently.
