Fire doors
Do not forget about these special doors, because they provide maximum protection facilities and in some cases, simply necessary.
Thereby providing such high protection?
Fittings made of heat-resistant material, and plaster paste outside locks protect against overheating. Door leaf filled balzatovoloknistoy plate. Sealants protect against both cold, and hot smoke, fire. And the box, and the door leaf is covered with powder-coated.

Do I need to sacrifice appearance for the sake of security doors?

What's more profitable to buy, ordinary metal door or fire?
Metal doors with vinyl leather or laminate finish, eg, cheaper, than fire-resistant doors, but designs with more effective finishes at external influences (MDF, powder-coated) are approximately the same, as well as fire doors.
Where better to buy the front door
Definitely better to work with companies, who have showrooms, you can visually assess products. It is always easier to make a choice, not when you look at the picture on the Internet, but the real design. There you can and talk to the manager, who can answer the most interesting questions.
Some companies act as intermediaries, i.e, they do not have their own production, they buy doors from manufacturers and resell them. Naturally, they are slightly raise the price of products.
More profitable to cooperate with companies, are engaged in independent production, since they do not mark-up on products and provide a longer warranty on it.
How to find a decent company manufacturer
Among the many companies it is not so easy to find that unique, which can cooperate on mutually beneficial conditions. Everyone is looking for its own way and want to talk exclusively about personal experiences.
There was a problem - to find a good fire door to the office as soon as possible. Search manufacturing companies was conducted in Moscow and Moscow region, and since time was limited, They went immediately to the exhibition halls and examined options for the production.
Now for each company in order.
Max-door - the first firm, to which addressed. A wide range at very affordable prices, nice managers. The only problem is, what fire doors in the exhibition hall did not have, and offered to make all three models, that did not quite come at a cost and appearance.
Moscow doors - the company already 20 years in the market of metal doors production, there are plenty to choose from, but prices are "bite" and the delivery / installation, too, for an additional cost.
SC-Titan - nice managers, who happily talked about their products, prices are low, but the range of fire doors is not very big and there is a possibility, that they are not certified, as employees were not able to submit the relevant documents.
Esthete - the company produces more than 10 years old, fire doors for all tastes at affordable prices, and installation is carried out absolutely free. I had the opportunity to live to see the products, but most of all pleased that, that door warranty is given by 10 years.
The favorite was the company Esthete.
The choice of the manufacturer and the door only for you, do not skimp on the safety of its employees, and - choose only certified products company, which can give long-term guarantee.
