Door installation
The quality and professionalism of the installation guarantee the proper functioning of the entrance door and excellent acoustic and thermal insulation for decades.
Our commercial partners offer you a complete and professional installation of your new front door.
The process begins with measurements being taken at your home by our local partners. They will also recommend the most suitable installation method and install the door.
There are several types of installation, which differ depending on the condition of the building or the installation criteria (for example, a new house, a renovated house, favoring better insulation or a higher level of security, etc.)
Only professional installation guarantees the proper functioning of the door. Installation must therefore be carried out by our commercial partners or by an installation company approved by our partners.
INSTALLATION TYPES
STANDARD INSTALLATION
You can choose the standard door installation, where the space between the door frame and the wall is filled with polyurethane foam or other insulating material, while the frame is held in place with dowels and screws.
INSTALLATION ACCORDING TO RAL GUIDELINES
To guarantee the energy efficiency of your door, it is strongly recommended to choose installation according to RAL directives, an option favored by a growing number of our customers.
The recommended installation for energy efficiency according to RAL guidelines uses a system of sealing the space between the panel and the building at three levels – interior, intermediate and exterior.
The principle “the inside is tighter than the outside” applies, as follows:
- the interior contact surface (located at the entrance to the gap; contact between the frame and the plaster) is impermeable to air and steam;
- the intermediate part or middle layer (in the gap) is thermally insulated and as tight as possible;
- the outer contact surface (at the exit of the gap) is waterproof and vapor permeable to only prevent the entry of rain and wind.
