Sliding partitions for the zoning of the space in the room and 4 on their application the Board

An example of how nice and simple to divide the room into two functional areas

Do without redevelopment and capital construction of internal walls can be if we apply the sliding partitions for zoning of space in the room. I'll tell you how to construct the structure, and the way they are, and give recommendations on zoning rooms in the apartment.

Tips on zoning by partitions

Manual partitioning choice is very simple - buy and install that will be combined with the interior

• Tip One. For zoning of space in the room of small apartments, using the transparent glass screen with a minimum degree of matting and dimming. As a result, the two parts of a small room will seem larger;
• Tip two. Not recommended zoning bathrooms dull screen. Use the partition of frosted glass. As a result, you do not need to arrange the room additional light sources. After all, light from one part of the room will illuminate the entire room as a whole;
• Tip three. Improvement in the regeneration of a classic design is preferable to use cloth screen or wooden structure. All-glass construction or metal sliding partitions for the zoning of the space will look good only in modern minimalist interiors decorated;
• Tip four. For the separation of the room to a large and a small part it is preferable to use two-color septum. Lighter side can be deployed in the direction of a smaller part of the room.

Sliding partitions: what they are

illustrations	Classification by type of opening and closing
	sliding shutters. The design of the valves is suspended on roller assemblies and longitudinally moved along the guide profiles. The guide profile as well as the roller assembly is selected according to the size and mass of the valves.
	"Harmonic". Sash in such a structure are formed on the basis of an accordion. Each static fold edge is fixed in a guide profile, while the other leaflet free edge moves.
	rotary screen printing. Each segment (leaf) design - independent and rotated around its axis by a turning mechanism, which in turn moves longitudinally along the guide profiles. In such a construction can be made both extending laterally, from one of the walls, and the middle partition.

illustrations	Classification by type of installation
	Fixing to the ceiling. This mounting method is relevant for sliding partitions models. Segments structure through the roller assembly, suspended on the guide profile.
	Mounting in the opening. This method is most common when zoning premises. way popularity is due to ease of installation and reliability with their hands set design, since opening on all sides keeps the frame, ensuring that it is static.
	Attaching the top opening. This method is used when a wide sliding partition in a room is installed over at least a wide doorway.

	With a transparent filling. Such structures are assembled from slats made of tempered glass, insulating glass, or of organic (polymer) of glass. Design Advantages - light transmission and excellent appearance. The disadvantage - low degree of soundproofing. However, this problem can be solved by fitting the pattern, made up of double-glazed windows.
	With opaque filling. Such constructions consist of opaque segments made of metal, wood or plastics. The advantage of opaque structures - excellent sound insulation, since the gap between the inner and outer skin laid sound-insulating material, such as cardboard honeycomb.
	fabric partition. This screen, which run across the room and divide it into two parts. Screens can be suspended on the guide rods or tensioned between upper and lower guide profile. Despite the seeming impracticality of fabric partitions, with the duties they cope perfectly well as bad sound miss, are not transparent, and at the same time look great.

illustrations	Classification by type of application
	Household. In the design and manufacture of such structures, the emphasis is on aesthetic design. That is, a set design serves as a decorative element, and after that is perceived as a functional structure.
	office. In such designs, the aesthetic design combined with practical application. For greater usability, design office made soundproof. Because of this, one room can be divided into two functional areas and be sure that the sound from one part will not work in another.

Design features of the screen "bunching"

The photo is an example of how there is "accordion" - one side of the segment remains on the guide, and the other steps aside

Partitions "bunching" consist of individual segments which are interconnected door hinges. When folded, accordion folded segments have one or two walls. In the unfolded state the segments form a smooth partition.

Quality fittings - is the first thing to look for when selecting partitions

For fixing segments in the unfolded state the end stops are used, which by turning or when lowering the handle latches enter the cavity of the adjacent section and thereby block loop.

In accordance with the dimensions and design features, the partition can be parked in one wall or the entire design is divided into two parts and formed at two walls.

Silicone sealant when collapsing flaps forms almost a sealed connection

In qualitatively partitions made by the connecting line between the segments are silicone or rubber seals, which provide sound insulation up to 50 dB. Seals also prevent the noise of the whole structure when folding and unfolding "bunching."

Roller folding "bunching" of the screen assembly for attachment to upper (left) and the lower (right) profile

The last segment in the construction of the function of the door at a decomposed partition. In order not to spoil the wall, which is adjacent to this door, a locking mechanism is arranged at the junction of the extreme and the previous segment.

The design features a sliding partition

Sliding mobile partitions for zoning space different from the bellows structure and the guide profile unit roller assembly.

All three segments are shifted to the outermost point

If the folding versions applies one upper and one lower profile, in the structure with sliding segments using two or more profiles. The need to use multiple profiles due to the fact that several segments are moved longitudinally independently of one another.

The roller assembly in sliding versions immovable, while in folding versions it is fixed on a rotating hinge. Due to easier hardware, sliding constructions price affordable cost folding models.

To summarize

Now you know what a sliding partition for a room zoning, and how it is used for its intended purpose. To learn more details, watch the video in this article. And if you have any questions, ask them in the comments.
