When selecting an acoustic door, consider the following factors:

Sound Transmission Class (STC) Rating:

Higher STC ratings indicate better soundproofing capabilities. Choose a door with an STC rating that meets your specific needs, typically ranging from STC 40 for standard office use to STC 60 for recording studios.


Thickness

Thicker doors generally provide better sound insulation. Consider the space available for installation and balance the need for soundproofing with practical dimensions.

Fire Ratings and Safety Standards:

Some acoustic doors also offer fire-resistant properties. Check for doors that comply with fire safety standards if this is a requirement for your space.

Material and Construction:

Look for doors made with high-density materials and multi-layered constructions designed to block and absorb sound. Common materials include solid wood, steel, and specialised acoustic composites.


Seals and Gaskets:

Ensure the door includes high-quality acoustic seals and gaskets to prevent sound leaks around the edges. Automatic drop seals and magnetic seals are effective options.


Budget Considerations

Acoustic doors can vary significantly in price. Determine your budget and seek options that offer the best balance between cost and performance for your specific needs.


Introduction to Acoustic Doors (Ft. SilentDoor Rw®)


Acoustic doors, also known as soundproof doors, are specialised doors designed to reduce noise transmission between spaces. They are essential in various environments where sound control is crucial, such as recording studios, theatres, hospitals, office spaces, and residential properties. By providing an effective barrier against unwanted noise, acoustic doors ensure privacy, productivity, and comfort.


Why Choose Acoustic Doors?


Noise Reduction: Acoustic doors are engineered to minimise sound transmission, making them ideal for areas that require a quiet environment or where noise needs to be contained.

Privacy: These doors are perfect for spaces where confidentiality and privacy are paramount, such as meeting rooms, offices, and medical examination rooms.


Enhanced Comfort: By reducing noise levels, acoustic doors contribute to a more comfortable living or working environment, improving overall well-being and productivity.

Increased Property Value: Installing high-quality acoustic doors can add value to your property by enhancing its functionality and appeal.


Features of Acoustic Doors


Soundproofing Materials: Acoustic doors are constructed using materials specifically designed for sound insulation, such as dense cores, multi-layered structures, and specialised seals.


Durability: These doors are built to last, using robust materials and advanced manufacturing techniques to ensure long-term performance.


Aesthetic Options: Acoustic doors come in various styles, finishes, and colours, allowing them to blend seamlessly with your interior design while providing superior soundproofing.

Fire Ratings: Many acoustic doors also offer fire-resistant properties, providing additional safety benefits without compromising on noise reduction.


Applications of Acoustic Doors
