The increase in small buildings caused the strong trend of sliding doors and the search for practical solutions that consciously optimize each m². If you are one of those who want to innovate, invest in the shrimp door, which has now been modernized with a more elaborate design.
The shrimp door, also known as a hinged door, allows full or partial opening depending on the users’ needs. It has the same effect as a sliding door, but its operation is slightly different when it comes to the arrangement of the leaves.
The door, when opened, leaves the leaves folded on top of each other, collected on the sides of the gap. There is a rail in the lining or on the floor so that there is this sliding movement of the leaves. However, when closed they normally function as a panel, as in the sliding door.
The shrimp door has gained space when it comes to integrating environments and enhancing the facade. In the first proposal, it easily divides the rooms of an apartment, without disturbing the functionality of each room or circulation. In the second proposal, we can find a design full of wooden slats that also work as brise.
