Doors & Handles
There are so many different types of frames. The same is true for color and shape. The property is based on a bold rectangular shape with a black coloring that gives it a strong presence, and the entire garden surface of the building is made of glass so that the garden can be overlooked. It even looks fantastic when lit up at night. Aluminum sashes are used in this project. It is light, strong, and has excellent anti-corrosion performance, and is widely used in general. Aluminum is easy to process and can maintain high airtightness. Its light weight also makes it highly functional, reducing the burden of opening and closing windows, for example. From that perspective, it is one of the materials with all the performance required for housing, and it is very excellent.
Withstand distortion, deflection, and warping.
Buildings are subjected to various changes on a daily basis, such as deformation of components due to sunlight and constant shaking caused by trucks passing on the road. This is even more pronounced in times of disaster, when they are subjected to wind storms and earthquakes. Today, there are many materials that are incredibly strong. Glass, metal, plastic, and so on. However, when these are combined to form a complex structure, the strength and durability of the building as a whole is now questioned. Of course, this is the result of advanced design and structural calculations, but our quality also depends on whether or not we can meet the strength requirements of the structure as a whole. It is difficult to understand this if one is simply aware that we are a sheet metal shop supplying mere building components. We have honed this sense by working with a large number of outstanding architectural design professionals.
The finished product is communication.
Consequently, it goes without saying that reliability and peace of mind in being able to rely on us for all processes, from sample to assembly, are important. However, that alone will always lead to overconfidence. That is why we understand the importance of communication and the need for an awareness of the need to evolve our own technology while listening. The items we work on in housing, including and not limited to this project, are surface design items. However, it is of utmost importance that we also have a solid understanding of the foundation and structure of the building. It is in this understanding that we can hone our skills and ideas to respond to orders with a high level of design, while making the design fundamentally safe and secure.
