Why choose Japanese sliding doors

The biggest difference between Japanese sliding doors and ordinary doors is the material. Ordinary doors are generally made of wood or mixed with glass, while Japanese sliding doors are made of wooden door frames with a grid design and “Dacron” fabric.

Since Japanese sliding doors generally have left and right openings, they can save space. For small rooms, saving space is very important. In addition, Japanese sliding doors have high light transmittance and can be used during the day. Natural lighting is added to the interior, and it becomes unique when the lights are turned on at night. In addition, the fibers on the fabric have many breathable holes, which also have the function of filtering air, absorbing moisture and keeping warm.

Furthermore, as long as Japanese-style sliding doors are installed, the atmosphere of the home will immediately transform into a Japanese-style room. This style is very popular among young customers, so many families have chosen Japanese-style sliding doors in recent years.
