When we think of armored doors , we immediately think of the security of the main entrance. However, the demand for interior armored doors is constantly growing, especially in luxury homes, multi-unit apartments, or work environments where it's necessary to securely separate certain areas. An interior armored door is therefore the ideal solution for those seeking a combination of protection, aesthetics, and insulation.
To deepen your knowledge of these products, today we want to discuss the five key aspects you need to know to make an informed choice about the interior security door best suited to your needs, with particular attention to design, security, and compatibility with home automation systems.
1) Certified security: burglar-proof classes
The first factor to consider when choosing an internal security door is the security level , identified by the burglar-proof classes , which range from 1 to 6 according to the UNI EN 1627 standard. For internal use in residential or commercial settings, class 3 or 4 is generally sufficient, guaranteeing resistance to break-in attempts with common manual tools.
A good tip is to choose models with European cylinder security locks , which provide greater protection against tampering or extraction of the cylinder. In many cases, the lock can be integrated with smart systems for opening with a code, badge, or fingerprint.
2) Thermal and acoustic insulation: comfort and privacy
Unlike external security doors, an internal security door is designed to also offer good acoustic and thermal insulation , ideal for ensuring comfort and privacy inside the home or between professional premises.
The best models include insulated panels and perimeter seals that reduce the passage of sound, odors, and temperature variations. When installed, for example, between a hallway and a sleeping area or between an office and a storage room, this door can significantly improve overall comfort.
3) Design and finishes: uncompromising aesthetics
Contrary to popular belief, an interior armored door can be just as aesthetically refined as a traditional door. Today, leading manufacturers offer models in a wide range of finishes: from natural wood to matt lacquer , from pantographed surfaces to satin-finish armored glass .
You can also choose minimalist solutions , perfect for modern and minimalist environments, or coordinate them with other doors in the home, maintaining visual continuity and stylistic coherence. Handles, locks, and details can be customized, making each door unique.
4) Integration with home automation systems
Modern internal security doors can communicate with the home automation systems offered by Guestkey , increasing the level of security and convenience. Current technologies allow:
· Opening with smartphone or dedicated app
· Controlled access via RFID badge
· Connection with alarm systems
· Access monitoring via logs and notifications
These features make internal armored doors a perfect choice for offices, professional studios, villas and state-of-the-art apartments, where security merges with automation .
5) Installation and assistance: relying on professionals makes the difference
Even the best product loses its effectiveness if it's not installed correctly. Installing an interior security door requires precise technical skills, especially when working on existing masonry or plasterboard. It's essential to ensure the frame is properly aligned, the hinges are securely attached, and the lock is working properly.
Furthermore, in the event of malfunctions, breakdowns or future updates (for example, to switch to a smart opening system), it is essential to be able to count on a fast and reliable assistance service .
