FAQs – Soundproof Internal Doors
Q: How much sound do soundproof internal doors block?
A: Our soundproof internal doors reduce sound transmission by up to 33dB, depending on the model, seals, and installation quality. For maximum performance, pair your door with quality acoustic seals to create a complete sound reduction system.
Q: Are acoustic doors also fire rated?
A: Yes. Many of our acoustic doors are available as FD30 fire-rated soundproof doors, providing both noise reduction and fire protection. These are ideal for apartments, hotels, and mixed-use commercial buildings.
Q: Do I need extra seals for best results?
A: We recommend fitting Lorient drop seals and intumescent + acoustic fire seals to achieve the highest level of sound insulation. The right seals can improve performance by up to 5–7dB and also enhance energy efficiency.
