Form of bathroom door: which is better, a horizontal door or a sliding door?

Judging from the norms of architectural design and interior design, the design principle is based on the fact that toilet doors are all inward-opening horizontal doors. In recent years, people have formed a tendency to make sliding doors in the bathroom at home. I don't know its many irrationalities and many functions are missing. This paper will discuss the form of bathroom door from the use function of bathroom: whether it is better to open the door in Kaiping or sliding door.

Ventilation is the most important.

The bathroom does not need large-area lighting, but the most important function is ventilation (which determines the dryness of the bathroom when it is used for a long time in the future).

More private.

The larger the lighting area of the door, the more privacy it loses. When using the sliding door to enter the bathroom, the parties can't control the opening of the door and their sense of security is affected.

Better sealing performance

When the sliding door is used, the sealing performance (smell, humid air) in use is affected.

The bathroom wall utilization rate is higher.

The use of sliding doors on bathroom walls will reduce the utilization area, and the installation of towel racks and small pendants will also be affected to some extent.
