Key features and benefits of choosing big glass windows and doors for residential and commercial construction projects. 

Over the past few decades, large glass windows and doors have become increasingly popular and for good reason! 

Here at Q One, we can highly recommend adding big glass windows and doors to your residential or commercial project.

Below are some compelling reasons to select large windows and doors for your home or office: 

  • Provide the illusion of space
  • A modern yet simple look and feel for your home or office
  • Allow in plenty of natural light, saving you a fortune on artificial lighting costs
  • Can be easily customised to create an enclosed space or an outdoor patio
  • They bring you closer to nature
  • Large glass harnesses the natural heat from the sun
  • They can bring in fresh air, a healthier alternative to air conditioning

Aesthetic trends using big glass panels and the outside in living experience as well as inside out access convenience

No one enjoys feeling cloistered inside their office and home, especially during the winter. Large windows and doors make your living or working space seem much bigger than it actually is. 

Big windows and doors allow you to enjoy the outdoors, even when you’re inside! From giving you a panoramic vantage point of the natural beauty outside to giving you the option of opening the windows and doors to be at one with nature, you get the best of both worlds.

Floor to ceiling glass doors and windows allow you to customise your living space. When the weather is warm, you can create a patio and, when the temperatures drop, you can enjoy a warm, light-filled space. 

Lighting and the overall effects of natural lighting using big glass panels for windows and doors 

The larger your glass door or window, the more natural light will flow into your building. 

Instead of spending a fortune on your electricity bill by lighting up your home or office with artificial light, why not use natural light? 

Sound control benefits of using glass for fenestration projects

As an excellent material for controlling sound in your home or office, glass is a wonderful solution if you are concerned about exterior noise pollution. 

If you live or work in a busy area, noise can be an issue. Glass can be soundproof and can block out or muffle the sounds of traffic, factory operations, noisy neighbours, machinery and more. 

Commercially, glass can help employees to concentrate more effectively on their work and can help create a peaceful working environment. In the home, it can assist you in relaxing and getting a better night’s sleep. 

Thermal control benefits of using glass for fenestration projects

Large glass panels allow the warmth of the sun’s rays to naturally heat your home or office’s interior during winter. 

Most of South Africa experiences plenty of sunshine during the winter, even though the temperatures can be quite low. It, therefore, makes a lot of sense to use the sun’s warmth which is freely available. 

With large glass systems, you can allow the sun to naturally warm your living or working space without using heaters!

Energy efficiency with environmentally friendly glass fenestration saves in the long term when planning any construction renovation or new project.

Glass is wonderfully energy-efficient as any gaps between panels or between glass panels and your building’s walls are sealed. 

This provides you with additional insulation and prevents cool air from escaping the building during the summer. 

The same is true during the colder months. If you have used natural sunlight to warm your interior during the day, it will take much longer to escape during the dark hours, and you could save a lot of money in the long run by preventing the excessive use of heaters.
