Maximum strength provides a door frame with a complex cross-section. The zone of the castle mechanism is additionally protected by armor plates.

The role of the seal performs a porous rubber profile of a closed section. This ensures the most snug fit of the door curtain to the frame and complete tightness.An additional function of such a seal is to soften the blows when the door is slamming, so it closes almost silently.

The inner space between the sheets is filled with mineral wool or mineral plate - a material of unique properties.

In the manufacturer's catalogs there are several typical models of entrance doors:

The line has a little less than a dozen options, marked from "DS 1" to "DS 9" in accordance with the degree of protection.

"DS 1" is the most simple but reliable metal door with 1 sheet of metal and tselnognuty door leaf. This is a practical choice, having good thermal and noise insulation performance, wear resistance and the highest class of protection. The door is resistant to shocks and attempts to apply power loads.

"DS 9" provides impeccable protection of the room and maximum comfort premium. Two steel sheets, solid-folded sheet, stiffening ribs and a closed door frame guarantee not only 100% protection, but also high-quality thermal insulation and absolute protection against extraneous sounds. All other models in terms of reliability and comfort vary within the capabilities of these two options.

As well as a collection of standard models for installation in an apartment, the entrance doors to the house are marked with a “DS” sign with a serial number corresponding to the degree of reliability and comfort.As in the “apartment” line, there are 9 of them in the “home”, however, two additional parameters are provided here: high-quality insulation and sealant, external door cover, resistant to humidity and temperature extremes.

Continue a series of door leafs for the house model for installation at the border of the "street-house". There are only two specialized doors for cold and harsh climatic conditions - “DS 6” and “DS 10”. The thermal insulation system in the design of these doors is designed in such a way that freezing of the door block and the formation of frost on the door are excluded. At the same time, rigid foamed polyurethane copes with the task alone, without requiring additional efforts to improve thermoregulation at the door installation site.

When there is something in the house that needs to be cherished, like the pupil of an eye, you should pay attention to the doors of DS 3U and DS 8U.

They are distinguished by the highest crack resistance classes due to the design features:

• The exceptional rigidity of the door leaf due to the three sheets of metal, stiffeners and horizontal profiles;
• Composite insert to protect the fabric from eruption;
• Unique locking system with multipoint locking on three sides and anti-removable maze.

In order to "turn off" the sounds of the outside world, which should not penetrate the house and retain heat indoors indoors in any weather, the manufacturers of the Guardian doors produce models with soundproofing and thermal insulation systems of premium class.

Depending on the appearance of the main entrance and the convenience of homeowners, you can choose the doors that open to yourself, that is, to the street or the stairwell, and from yourself, that is, inside the room. You can also choose the right-sided and left-sided placement of the door leaf in the opening.

When choosing doors that open from themselves, it is important to consider that the interior of the room must be reflected in the appearance of the door leaf.

Size does matter when it comes to the non-standard width of the doorway, which is often found in old houses, cottages and rooms with high traffic for transporting large-sized items.

Since even strong hinges are not able to withstand the weight of the door leaf, whose width is twice the standard, it is better to use double-wing models. In addition, they are more practical in terms of delivery and installation.

The optimal solution for rooms in which it is necessary to comply with the regulations on fire safety requirements.

Combustible materials are not available in the door design. Mineral wool and fire-resistant drywall are used as filler. Additional protection provides thermal tape from smoke and fire. Door fire resistance limit - 1 hour.

Work of engineering at the intersection of functionality, safety and high aesthetic qualities. A rich choice of decorating windows and wrought iron elements helps to create a stylish and original door for any room.

Impenetrable glass is additionally protected by a decorative forged grille, while the door's ability to heat and sound insulation is maintained at a high level, as is burglary resistance.

• correct form and high rigidity of the structure;
• door leaf thickness not less than 1.3 mm;
• fabric welding seams are not allowed;
