When should we invest in a new door?

Every product eventually wears out. In the case of doors, this phenomenon depends on their quality. It happens that the life of the door is 20-30 years or, on the contrary, less than 10. How to know that the door should be replaced?

Door tightness – the basis of energy-efficient houses

One of the main tasks of the door is to insulate the interior and protect homeowners from low temperatures. The door’s proper heat transfer coefficient and tightness affects the proper functioning of the heating system. If the door is leaky, we automatically expose ourselves to higher heating bills. In addition, the draft can lead to frequent colds, even in the summer season. For this reason, it is worth checking whether the door generates a draft in the house. A leaky door does not always have to involve replacing it. However, if the defect is not repairable, a necessary step is to invest in airtight doors. StalProdukt Zamosc offers a full range of thermally insulated exterior doors. This investment can translate into lower heating bills!

Home security

Another important issue is the protection provided by our doors. Burglaries in single-family homes happen frequently. They can be prevented not only by an alarm system, but also by investing in burglar-proof doors. Standard doors have a weaker casing, which sometimes makes it easier to break into a house. Burglars are not intimidated by locked doors. If you wonder if your door is still good, check its hinges and cylinder. If the structure is adjusted, the door will be easy to remove.

Damage that destroys the aesthetics of the door

The aesthetics of a door are less important than its security and tightness. However, a nice door makes staying in the house more pleasant. Doors, especially wooden ones, are prone to dents and scratches. After a family has used the door for several years, we may notice that it is not as smooth as it once was. Steel doors in the StalProdukt Zamosc catalog are easy to maintain. Steel is difficult to damage, so such an investment will perform well for years. You can find more information about the parameters of steel doors and the vulnerability of doors to damage in our catalog.
