Closure of Hotel Rooftop with Glass Structures
Niche Hotel, Athens
At the Niche Hotel in Athens, an impressive upgrade was made to the hotel’s rooftop with the installation of the S-GR sliding glass roof and F4 folding doors. These solutions were specifically designed to enhance the guest experience, offering an unobstructed view of the Acropolis while providing protection from both cold and heat.
S-GR Sliding Glass Roof
The S-GR sliding glass roof was installed on the existing metal structure of the hotel’s rooftop. The roof’s mechanism allows for the opening of two-thirds of the total surface area, with the glass panels moving electrically and retracting, thus giving guests the option to enjoy an open space while ensuring protection from weather conditions whenever necessary.
The roof features double energy-efficient glazing, ensuring excellent thermal insulation and reducing energy consumption. Made from high-quality aluminum with electrostatic coating, the roof combines exceptional durability, a modern appearance, and long-lasting resistance to weather conditions.
F4 Folding Doors
In addition to the roof, the project also includes the F4 folding doors, which were integrated into the same rooftop structure. The doors are suspended, without tracks at the bottom, allowing for smooth movement and eliminating any obstacles on the floor. All the doors gather in a specially designed parking space, maximizing the free surface area and offering guests the feeling of a seamless connection between the interior and the exterior.
The doors also feature double energy-efficient glazing, providing thermal insulation and energy savings, while the frame is made of aluminum and coated with electrostatic paint for increased durability and a modern aesthetic.
Conclusion
The completion of the project with the installation of the S-GR sliding glass roof and F4 folding doors on the rooftop of the Niche Hotel stands as an excellent example of modern architecture and construction technology. Salinox, with over 30 years of experience in the field, took on and executed the full construction, providing a comprehensive solution that combines aesthetics with innovation. The glass structures have significantly upgraded the space, creating an open and bright atmosphere for guests.
