Space Saving Ideas - News - doorchic

Is space a premium? Are you looking for a way to create a free flowing environment for your home? Are you looking for that contemporary, architectural touch? Are you looking for an alternative to swinging doors?

If you answer yes to some, or all, of the above then we at doorchic.co.uk, in conjunction with astec design, have found the answer to your needs. The astec sliding door system is another affordable, exclusive product unique to doorchic, and compliments well the new and innovative style of the products that are contained within the site.

The ‘Stainless steel on show’ effect of the astec designer sliding door system gives a modern, architectural styling for the home DIYer. It’s simple to install, giving a clean aesthetically pleasing solution for your space saving dilemmas, or simply for that modern, unique look. It truly is a simple solution for a sophisticated, compromise free sliding door system.

The astec is designed for interior applications, although it can be fitted externally, and due to its clever, solid and versatile design it allows for infinite permutations.

It is available for double and single openings and can be used in conjunction with both wooden, up to 40mm thick, and glass doors up to a 8-12mm thickness. Doors can be supported up to a weight of 80kg.

The simplicity of the design allows for easy installation; besides an electric drill, a cross tip screwdriver, and an Allan key of 4 and 5mm’s, these are all the tools you need. Brackets on the wall hold the carrying rod for the door runners, plates are clamped to the door and then hung on the rod to run quietly and smoothly on their ball bearing runners. The doors are guided by an unobtrusive door guide which is attached to the wall. There are no other fixings, and nothing is fixed to the floor, so there are no worries about your existing flooring. It really is that simple; there’s no need for complicated building work to achieve that unique, contemporary, architectural style.

The space that can be reclaimed by using this system is simply remarkable, with upwards of 600mm of floor space reclaimed per room. Free flowing environments can be created easily, giving your home a sense of harmony, and can quickly be altered to suit your ever changing living requirements and moods.
