FAQs
Steel security doors are incredibly durable, and provide robust protection. This makes them suitable for high security areas such as commercial properties, data centers and homes in high crime areas. Options include blank doors for maximum security, fire rated and exit doors for safety, louvered doors for improved airflow and panelled doors that balance aesthetics and functionality. Steel security doors can be used anywhere, the exact type just depends on your unique needs.
Yes, as these doors are filled with mineral wool/fiberglass, not only is the strength of the door improved but thermal insulation is also improved. They help to reduce heat transfer and improve energy efficiency.
Blank steel doors are a no-frills security solution. They feature heavy duty inbuilt steel reinforcements and anti-jemmy hinge bolts that are designed to prevent forced entry. Our doors are robust and CE certified to ensure reliability and quality. The doors can defend against a variety of threats, including burglary, physical attacks as well as harsh weather conditions.
There are three main types of locks we recommend for a blank steel security door:
- Kite Marked Security Cylinders - For tamper resistance and cost-effectiveness
- Multi-Point Lock System - For additional stability and protection against forced entry
- Push Button Digital Locks - For keyless entry and environments with high personnel turnover
The doors can offer a degree of acoustic insulation, however, they are not entirely soundproof. The core materials and the solid construction of a blank steel door makes them effective for dampening noise, but if complete soundproofing is required, you may be better looking for a specialised acoustic door.
When it comes to looking after the environment, it is essential that we recycle old steel security doors. Doing this conserves natural resources, saves energy, reduces climate impact and diverts waste from landfill. Recycling a steel door involves collecting, sorting, shredding, melting and reforming the steel to allow it to be turned into a new product - all while maintaining the strength of the steel.
There are several reasons to choose a blank steel door:
- Security - A glass panel is a weak point in a security door, solid steel is far more secure
- Privacy - A blank steel door ensures complete privacy, while glass can be peered through
- Durability - Steel doors are durable enough to resist impact, weather and wear and tear, making them a long lasting choice
- Maintenance - Steel is generally easier to maintain and clean than doors with glass panels
- Insulation - Solid steel doors provide better insulation than doors with glass panels which makes them more energy efficient
Yes, these doors can be used internally for areas that require enhanced security. They can even be powder coated to meet the aesthetic requirements inside your building.
