The horizontal waterproofing of the balcony slab should be folded up onto the wall 30 cm (range of splashing rainwater) and finished with a pedestal made of ceramic tiles. In the case of a balcony without a roof, it is also recommended to raise the balcony door threshold to the height 1 degree, tj. 15 cm.
The installation of the balcony door is performed against the external curtain wall, which plays the role of a jamb giving an additional plane of tightness at the frame. The balcony door threshold should be at this height, which allows the horizontal anti-water insulation to be folded over the frame and cover the threshold with an aluminum threshold strip with a drip.
In the wall gap above the lintel of the balcony door, similar to window openings, damp insulation should be provided to protect the door frame from getting wet.
