Find out the owner of the apartment from what number of metal sheets the design of the entrance door consists. In most cases, manufacturers offer customers a door sheathed with one sheet of metal, at the request of the buyer they can install the second (in this case, the design is stronger and harder). Experts in this area assure that the number of sheets is not so important for security as the thickness of the material used. The thickness of the material of the reliable front door should be at least 2 millimeters. As for the locks, experts recommend that the locks of various designs simultaneously install, for example, legged and cylinder. Additional armored and armority, which are designed to protect the mechanism and body of locks from knocking and drilling, will be useful.
Next, pay attention to the material that is used to fill the door leaf. If the inner layer is cellular cardboard, then be prepared that such material has low sound – and thermal insulation characteristics. It is better if polyurethane foam, foam or mineral wool are used as a filling.
