Doors & Handles
There are so many different types of frames. The same is true for the colour, and the same is true for the shape. The property is based on a bold rectangular shape with a strong black colouring, and the entire garden face of the building is made of glass so that the garden can be seen from all sides. It even looks fantastic when lit at night. Aluminium sashes are used in this project. It is light, strong, has excellent anti-corrosion performance and is widely used in general. Aluminium is easy to process and can be kept airtight. Its light weight also makes it highly functional, for example, reducing the burden of opening and closing windows. From that perspective, it is one of the materials with all the performance required for housing and is very good.
Withstand distortion, deflection and warping
Buildings are exposed to a variety of changes on a daily basis, such as deformation of components due to sunlight or constant minor shaking caused by trucks passing on the road. This is even more pronounced in times of disaster, when they have to withstand storms and earthquakes. Today, there are many components that are incredibly strong. Glass, metal, plastic and so on. However, when these are combined, the strength and durability of the building as a whole is now questioned as the structure becomes more complex. Of course, this is the result of advanced design and structural calculations, but our quality also depends on whether or not we can also meet this structural strength. It is difficult to understand this if you are only aware that we are simply a sheet metal shop supplying building components. We have developed this sense through our involvement with many excellent architectural design professionals.
Finished product is communication
Consequently, it goes without saying that it is important to have the reliability and security of being able to rely on us for the entire process, from sample to assembly. However, that alone will always lead to overconfidence. That is why communication is so important, and we understand that we need to be aware of the need to listen and evolve our own technology as we listen. In housing, the items that we work on are surface design items. However, it is of utmost importance that we also have a solid understanding of the foundations and structure of the building. This is where we can hone our skills and ideas to respond to orders with a high level of design, while ensuring that the design is fundamentally safe and secure.
