Entrance metal double doors

The front door is a business card of the house, emphasizing the individuality, status, good taste of the owner, as well as being a reliable defense against intruders. In the modern world, non-standard dimensions of the doorway, as a result of exclusive projects of private buildings, entail the need to select a door of the appropriate size. In this regard, entrance metal double-wing doors are gaining more and more popularity - the most suitable option for large entrance openings, providing reliable protection and having excellent quality characteristics.

Metal double-leaf construction is a very durable and reliable element of households, proven protection from mechanical damage and unwanted hacks.An important feature of such metal blocks is their stylish and thoroughly thought-out design. As a rule, this feature manifests itself in the presence of mirror decorative additions or elements of artistic forging. Ultimately, the product becomes an important component of the facade of a mansion or other structure.

Metal double doors have a number of advantages:

• A durable steel frame, on which solid steel sheets are welded on both sides, as well as a multitude of locking mechanisms, increase the protective functions of the door and make it practically invulnerable. An additional sheet of metal inside the product is possible for more complete protection;
• excellent sound and heat insulation, the absolute exclusion of drafts due to insulation, which is located between the profiles. As a rule, mineral wool is used as such material - it is hygroscopic and does not burn;
• metal entrance blocks, unlike wooden, do not rot, do not absorb moisture, do not crack and do not deteriorate due to the treatment with special anti-corrosion substances.Products are durable in operation and do not lose their original appearance;
• due to their size, they allow free transport of bulky items. The width of the product is adapted to a non-standard doorway, since in most cases metal structures are made to the size of the customer.

The variety of metal double doors is determined by its main characteristics, such as the size of the doors, the direction of opening, the shape and the place of installation.

According to current standards, the width of double-wing entrance doors starts from 90 cm, and the height coincides with the height of ordinary single structures. The minimum dimensions are used very rarely, as these are the standard dimensions of a single door. Therefore, among bivalve blocks, the most demanded is a width of at least 1.2 m and a maximum of 2 m. Large width does not guarantee proper reliability.The maximum height of double doors - 2.3 m.

According to the size of the canvases, the doors are divided into two types: the first one has the same width of the shutters, installed symmetrically in the doorway, the second one differs in different sizes of the canvases, one of which is larger than the other. Often the main function is performed by a large sash, a smaller canvas is opened only when necessary. The lifetime of a metal structure having equal flaps is much longer due to uniform pressure on the hinges on opposite sides.

In the direction of opening double doors can be only two types: opening into the interior of the room or outside. Of course, each canvas has different sides of opening - one left, the other right. Knowledge of the direction of opening doors is important for self-assembly structures, more precisely, when choosing door hinges. The best option in this case will be universal loops.

As for the form, there are also two options: standard rectangular and non-standard in the form of an arch. In any case, the essence of the overall design does not change, reliability and protective functions are the same.

The presented type of doors will not have any drawbacks if the products meet several requirements:

• high-quality material, which should not include harmful alloys, heavy metals;
• good cladding that does not contain scratches, dangerous chipping;
• hinges must have bearings and be resistant to loads;
• good sealing unit.

Only these conditions contribute to the full implementation of all functions: the structures open easily, do not creak, do not make noise, do not knock, are safe and reliable in use.

Often the design of these door leaves is designed to operate in difficult environmental conditions. This means that the doors will retain their external data and functionality when exposed to ultraviolet radiation, in contact with moisture, with sudden temperature changes.Due to its reliability, durability and resistance to burglary, such doors are often installed in large mansions, public organizations, as well as in government structures.

Due to the variety of models, prices for this type of products are also distinguished by their diversity. Different indicators, such as dimensions, thickness of steel sheets, number of stiffeners, quality of fittings, fasteners, locking mechanisms, affect the formation of value. It is quite possible to make a large custom design, but the buyer should be aware that the cost of this product will be more than impressive. This is due to the need to make individual design decisions that entail a waste of financial and labor resources.

When choosing even the most reliable quality door you should take care of a stylish and attractive appearance, that is, think about the options for finishing. Today, manufacturers of double-leaf metal structures offer customers several lining options:

The most expensive, but quite spectacular and solid type of decoration - wood veneer. In this case, both the array and the veneer can be used.

MDF panel - plates from extruded wood covered with PVC film. They are quite moisture-resistant and temperature-resistant, perfectly amenable to milling, which allows you to give an elegant decor to the product.

This coating has several advantages:

• ecologicaly clean;
• resistant to various mechanical stress;
• has good thermal insulation;
• does not crack and is almost not deformed;
• easy to handle.

A more budget option - coating with special powder paint. Such a design will not give the product a special exquisite look, but will protect it from the harmful effects of moisture and temperature. A variety of colors and textures makes polymer painting quite popular. Thanks to this material, street doors can be of any color: black, brown and even white.

The most economical, but rather original version is the finishing of the canvas with plastic or artificial leather.

On the modern market a very large assortment of double-leaf structures is presented. The buyer can easily select the desired product, which will correspond to taste, stylistic direction, financial capabilities and the assigned functions.

By choosing a specific model, need to take into account the features of the design of the building. For brick buildings suitable metal doors or products with small glass inserts. Glass windows better protect additional metal bars. If the entrance is located in the center of the facade, it is worth considering a version of the design with doors of the same width, which will allow to embellish the structure, to give it a more aesthetic look.

An important indicator of the quality of metal entrance doors is the fame of the manufacturer who has won the market with guaranteed quality of door leaf, accessories and canopies. When selecting steel double-wing blocks for the building, attention should be paid not only to external data, but also to technical characteristics, since the main function of the entrance door is to ensure the security of housing or commercial real estate and protect it from unauthorized entry.
