Get the door from “Agata” and forget about the noise
In addition to the good appearance and reliability of locks, high-quality inlet metal doors must also perform good heat and noise insulation.
Sound insulation of the front door is a topical issue for owners of all types of apartments and country houses. Doors, the noise isolation of which does not save from third-party sounds, require either a replacement, or significant reconstruction. And in order to ensure that this problem does not arise at all, it is necessary to immediately approach the choice of entrance doors.
Reliable noise protection will provide the door, equipped with all necessary materials. The so-called multilayer door will protect the home from strange sounds and provide its owners with peace of mind and comfort.
Modern, high-quality metallic entrance doors should contain such soundproofing material as mineral wool. Also, this is one of the criteria of DSTU B В.2.6-12-97 “Doors of high durability. Methods of mechanical tests- document SNiP 11-12-77” Noise protection “.
Mineral wool is a natural, environmentally friendly material that does not burn and is highly resistant to the action of chemicals. Meets all the criteria for quality, reliability and safety. It is an excellent soundproof material, because with it the noise level in apartments and dwelling houses does not exceed the permissible – 30 dBA.
Depending on the door model, the thickness of the filler will vary from 40 to 60 mm.
Also, no protection from noise is MDF panels or boards of chipboard. Their optimal thickness should be 16 mm. The best soundproofing qualities of course are wooden lining, made of pine or oak, but they are much more expensive than MDF and chipboard.
Do not forget about the door threshold, it must act 4 cm, and in relation to the deflector, then its height should be up to 2 cm. Thus, so-called barrier is created that prevents the penetration of moisture, air and of course- noise.
It is also worth noting that in order to remove excess noise, a rubber sealant is fastened along the contour of the door. It performs the function of tight fitting the doors to the frame, which provides a virtually sealed connection without any cracks.
The final stage of qualitative heat and noise isolation properties is the installation of doors. Installation plays a significant role in the further operation of the product and its functional purpose in general. All cavities between the door box and the walls of the house should be carefully filled with a mounting foam which has excellent sound and thermal insulation properties.
A good noise isolation of the front door is one of the main parameters for ensuring a high level of comfort in your home. Remember this and let any noises make you feel at ease in your own home.
