INSIDER GUIDE
THIS SLICK DESIGN FEATURE IS A GOOD MOVE – GIULIO MALBERTI, GENERAL MANAGER AT RIMADESIO LONDON AND PART OF THE THIRD GENERATION OF THE FAMILY-OWNED ITALIAN COMPANY, OFFERS HIS ADVICE
Internal glass doors not only look slick and sophisticated, but they’re practical, too. We specialise in producing systems for subdividing environments and the main benefit of an internal glass door is creating different zones while maintaining connection between spaces. The doors are not only room dividers, but become an intrinsic element of the design.
The contemporary look and the technological features make the doors suitable for any kind of property. With Rimadesio, the sliding panels are always custom-made and work on a sliding rail that guarantees perfect levelling and smooth movements, even when dealing with big dimensions. Open spaces are not gone within the home, but adaptability is increasingly crucial.
Our styles can be classified on two scales: the level of transparency required and the level of decoration desired. Our sliding doors are produced in a wide range of glasses, from fully transparent to smoked, frosted and reflective. The newest laminated glasses have fabrics between the layers of glass that show a veiled transparency, making them very decorative. The Velaria sliding panel (shown above) can be highly customised – both the glass and the aluminium structure are available in various versions and in 46 glossy and matt lacquered colours.
Consider whether you will need planning permission – if you are demolishing walls and replacing them with glass doors, it is likely that you will. Get installation performed by a qualified installer who will check the suitability of the location where you want to install the product. If the fixing is not carried out properly by a qualified installer, the product could get damaged.
We follow the principles of safeguarding the environment and its resources through a production process powered by solar energy.
Products like Velaria are made using glass and aluminium, which are 100 per cent recyclable and actively recovered in the production cycle, with a view to a circular economy that reduces waste to zero.
Ecolorsystem is the exclusive range of lacquers used and purely composed of water-based paints, which guarantees the total absence of harmful substances.
