Complete Door Replacement Guide

New doors are one of the most impactful renovations you can make. A solid exterior door improves security and insulation; fresh interior doors transform the feel of a flat. Here's how to approach the process.

Choosing an Exterior Door
- Burglar resistance class: minimum RC2 for a flat, RC3 for ground floor
- Thermal insulation: U ≤ 1.0 W/m²K for detached houses
- Sound insulation: from 30 dB for city apartments
- Warranty: minimum 2 years on both door and installation
Interior Doors: What Works Best
HDF doors with laminate finish offer excellent value for standard flats. Solid wood is worth it only for statement doors in living areas. Standard height is 2,100 mm — but always measure your actual openings in older buildings before ordering.
DIY vs Professional Fitting
Exterior doors — always use a professional. Incorrect fitting voids the warranty and leaves thermal bridges. Interior doors can be DIY-fitted by a competent person, but professional fitting costs €50–100 and prevents squeaks and warping within a year.
