Balconies are divided into inner balconies and outer balconies. The inner balcony is isolated from the outside world by plastic steel windows or aluminum alloy windows, and the outer balcony is mostly open to the outside world. Whether it is an inner balcony or an outer balcony, there are problems that cannot be ignored when designing decorations.

1.Bearing. At present, the balcony structure of many buildings is not very good. If the stacked items exceed the design carrying capacity, the safety level will be reduced, and there is a risk of danger.

2.Rebuild. Nowadays, in order to expand the usable area and pursue a good decoration effect, many families often connect the balcony with the inner room. In fact, it is very dangerous to do this, because there is a wall between the living room and the balcony, this low wall is called "counterweight wall", which plays the role of supporting the balcony, if this wall is removed, it will affect the safety of the balcony, and in serious cases, it may also cause the balcony to collapse. Therefore, during the renovation process, the doors and windows between the living room and the balcony can be removed, but the "counterweight wall" must not be moved.

3.Drain. Windows are the most susceptible to water seepage, and are usually filled with cement by leaving a two-centimetre gap on the underside of the window. If the balcony is used for indoor landscaping, you should pay more attention to drainage. If the drainage is not treated properly, it is easy to have problems such as water accumulation and leakage.

4.Balcony windows.
