Each building has an entrance door, whether it is a residential building and an apartment, a catering establishment and a hotel. Door blocks become the first protective layer that ensures the safety of the entire building. Since the number of burglars in our country is not decreasing, the choice of the front door must be taken with all responsibility. In addition to defensive functions, property owners want to have harmony in the interior, so you have to pay attention to design. Numerous domestic and foreign brands sell their products in the Russian trade network. To find the optimal solution, you should take into account the recommendations of our experts.

How to choose a front door

Choice of base material. The front door can be made from several materials.

1. Steel construction provides maximum strength to the doorway, unless it is made of “foil” (thin metal less than 1,0 mm). The main disadvantage of the material (corrosion) is leveled by a high-quality polymer coating.

2. Wooden front doors are the most environmentally friendly and aesthetic option. They have sufficient strength, but changes in temperature and humidity adversely affect the geometry. Therefore, the scope is limited to apartments.

3. Plastic doors are not afraid of moisture and cold. They are affordable and easy to maintain. But in terms of environmental friendliness, plastic is inferior to wood.

Choice of locking system. One of the main obstacles for thieves is the castle. But the more secrets appear, the more modern the master keys become. Today, not only mechanical locking devices, but also electronic systems are very popular. With their help, it is possible to monitor the front door remotely using a mobile application. Maximum reliability, according to experts, is provided by entrance doors with a combined locking system.

Noise isolation. All entrance doors are soundproof. But they can seriously differ in efficiency. If the courtyard of a village house is rarely noisy, then you should not spend extra money on soundproofing. But in urban conditions, high-quality sound insulation is indispensable.

Finish. Manufacturers of entrance doors use different types of design of their products.

1. For wooden and some metal structures, painting is used. But if impregnation and varnish are used in the case of wood, then polymer (powder) paint has become popular to protect steel parts.

2. Many metal doors are made using MDF or plastic panels. These finishing materials are easy to maintain, in addition, they improve the soundproofing properties of the canvas.

We have selected 13 best entrance door manufacturers for our review. All of them sell their products on the Russian market. When distributing places, the editorial staff of the magazine simplerule was based on the conclusions of the expert community, not forgetting the feedback from domestic consumers.
