How to choose an entrance door and not ruin the interior with an unsuccessful purchase: 5 important notes
The front door is not only protection from drafts and intruders, but also an integral part of the home interior.
The appearance of the front door is no less important than its contents, because it begins to form the guests' impression of who lives in the house or apartment. Here are 5 important notes.
1. It is recommended to pay attention to models with a metal frame. Steel models are considered the most durable, but the thickness of the metal sheet matters here. There are also aluminum models. They are light, inexpensive, but less reliable.
2. The material can be covered with PVC or MDF panels on the outside, which makes the doors wear-resistant and the appearance only benefits, and it becomes even easier to care for such doors.
3. On the outside it can be paint, but it should be varnished. Such a door is much cheaper and it will not be difficult to repair the coating.
4. Today, a popular type of finishing is powder coating. In concept, it is not much different from a door with paintwork. However, special dyes and technologies are used here, which make the material more reliable and durable.
5. Polymer paints best withstand temperature changes, as well as operating features. They are not afraid of frequent opening and closing, as well as impacts and scratches.
They are distinguished by a rough surface, and the models themselves are reasonably priced.
According to experts, powder coated models are the best value for money for an apartment.
