Contemporary architecture seeks to create a harmonious and coherent space that seamlessly blends the interior of the home with its surroundings. This trend, colloquially called “home open to the garden”, is gaining popularity, bringing both aesthetic and functional benefits. One of the key elements of this trend is modern, sliding patio doors that allow maximum use of natural light and open the house to the outside.
Large glazing: convenience and comfort
Large glazing is one of the most important elements of modern terrace doors. They allow you to bring a lot of natural light into the interior of the house, which not only visually expands the space, but also creates a pleasant atmosphere. The view of the garden becomes an integral part of the interior, which promotes relaxation and contact with nature. Such solutions increase the comfort of living, allowing free movement between the house and the garden. Deciding to follow nature, we can use a wide range of solutions in the opening joinery: sliding windows, terrace doors or large solid glazing. Currently, sliding systems such as KST, PSK or Smart Slide are the most popular.
HST System (Lift-Sliding)
Panoramic Glazing: The HST system allows you to make really large, panoramic glazing. Thanks to this, the interior is exceptionally illuminated and acquires a unique character.
Comfort of Use: The lift-and-slide mechanism ensures smooth operation and exceptional ease of use. Even small children can cope with it without the slightest problems. In addition, the HST system provides the possibility of a threshold-free connection of the house with the terrace.
Aesthetics and Functionality: HST doors allow you to create large structures. Impressive glazing and narrow frames maximize the amount of light that enters the interior of the room.
Economical: PSK systems are slightly more affordable compared to, for example, HST sliding systems.
Functionality: In addition to the obvious possibility of opening, PSK systems offer the possibility of tilting the door, which provides additional ventilation.
Space Saving: PSK systems take up less space when opened than traditional patio doors, at the same time it should be borne in mind that they usually do not reach as large a size as HST solutions, which limits the size of the glazing.
Sliding windows type PSK can be made both on our PVC and aluminum profiles. It should be borne in mind that in PSK systems the fitting mechanism is moved to the outside of the profile and, in addition, we cannot sink the window frame into the floor due to the guide system.
Slide Systems
Ease of Use: The Slide system combines the best features of the HST and PSK systems, offering smooth sliding on special strollers that can handle even children without problems.
Excellent Insulation: Multi-chamber design and triple seal system effectively protect against moisture, noise and heat loss.
Functionality - the Smart Slide system is also a low-threshold system that we can partially immerse in the floor. The minimum threshold height of approx. 3 cm allows you to move freely from the house to the terrace.
We invite you to familiarize yourself with our offer of windows and exterior doors. Including, among others PVC windows, aluminium door whether steel door.
Modern terrace systems - which solution to choose?
When choosing a patio door system, it is a good idea to consider your needs and expectations. The HST system, although expensive, offers the possibility of making very large panoramic glazing and ease of use. The PSK system, more economical, provides functionality and space saving. On the other hand, Smart Slide combines the best features of both systems, offering ease of use and excellent, unfortunately it does not allow to make such large structures as the HST system. Regardless of the choice, modern terrace doors will certainly contribute to the creation of a harmonious and functional space in which the interior of the house blends seamlessly with the garden.
