I want to discuss the topic of soundproof sliders, particularly in the context of the increasing trend of installing glass sliders in bedrooms and living rooms, and the importance of making an informed decision when selecting a branded product. While choosing a reputable brand such as fenesta, schueco, or RSVP can certainly contribute to ensuring quality, it is crucial to also consider specific requirements for soundproofing. It has been observed that many people are often swayed by brand names without fully understanding the potential flaws or limitations of the product.
Pl read my previous articles about fenesta soundproof sliders & tostem single point locking sliders. In the case of sliders, it is important to note that conventional sliders with brush seals may not provide the desired level of soundproofing. The brush seal connection between the frame and sash can have a low impact on the effectiveness of noise insulation as well as dust proofing. Considering recent weather changes and sandstorm incidents in Delhi and Mumbai, my belief in the need to address this issue has only grown stronger.
Over my 18 years of experience in visiting numerous projects, I have witnessed installers attempting to smoothen sliders by removing the brush seal at the bottom or top, solely to satisfy the customer. Unfortunately, this ignorance on the part of customers becomes an advantage for installers who are often hired on a contract basis, as their focus tends to be on the handover rather than the long-term performance of the product. To overcome this bottleneck, we have taken the initiative to form our own team for installation as well as after-sales service.
Visualize the infiltration of PM10 dust particles into your living space as a result of inadequate or deteriorated brush seals on your sliders. This occurs even if you have opted for premium luxury brands like Fenesta, Schueco, Tostem, and others that provide traditional sliders equipped with brush seals. To prevent this issue, it is essential to regularly inspect and maintain the brush seals on your sliders. Additionally, consider upgrading to modern Lift & Slide with advanced sealing technology to effectively block out dust particles as well as unwanted soundproofing. Properly sealed sliders can significantly improve indoor air quality and prevent health issues related to dust exposure.
We are delighted to announce our collaboration with Sobinco Belgium, a trusted OEM partner of prestigious brands such as Schueco and Reynaers. Together, we are unveiling the Slim Lift & Slide, a groundbreaking product that we confidently believe presents one of the finest solutions available in the industry. The Lift & Slide distinguishes itself by its innovative gasket design, replacing the conventional brush seal typically found in the connection between the frame and the shutter. I wish to clarify that my intention is not to merely promote our company's Lift & Slide but to emphasize the advantages of opting for this superior alternative over traditional sliders featuring brush seals. Its exceptional air tightness rivals that of a casement window. For further clarity, please refer to the explanatory video provided below.
Thank you for your time and consideration. I look forward to discussing this further with you and exploring how our slim lift & slide can meet your specific requirements for soundproofing.
