Qualities of tempered glass
It is especially important to the hygiene of furniture objects and ease of care for them. Glass meets these requirements, besides, it does not absorb odors. In order for the glass, traces from fingers remain, it is covered with a special composition. Transparent, as if soaring in the space facade of furniture will make any room with light, air, fill it with the game of light, reflected and repeatedly refracted in various surfaces.
Transparent realityTechnologies designed to ensure the safety of operation contributed to the spread of mobile glass cloths: they are either reinforced (that is, they are sampled by a special film), or hardened glass or triplex (film is located between two layers). Drinking on each other glass doors make the space multi-layer, open and closed at the same time. Such planes are capable of changing the color and, accordingly, the mood of the inhabitants of the house depending on the lighting, time of year, the environment. This is a "alive", movable element of the situation. Glass door fabrics often decorated with stained glass overlays made in fusing techniques (sintering), metal moldings, mirrored inserts, decorate engraving, stick on the glass film of different colors. Profiles are used, as a rule, aluminum, often lined with veneer. LUMI in the Lumi-Arborum system uses the profiles from the wood array subjected to hydrothermal processing without the use of chemicals, therefore, after this procedure, the product remains environmentally friendly. Wood at the same time becomes more dense, which guarantees a stable geometry of the doors up to 3m height.

Mr.Doors products are equipped with closers that exclude glass of glass about the cabinet case and gently close the doors.
