Doors for hotels: 4 essential characteristics


To be truly useful and reliable, hotel doors must have precise characteristics. Features that can greatly improve the quality of your accommodation facility. Here then are, among others, the four main factors that fixtures for hotels and bed & breakfasts should possess:

    I wait;
    Flame protection;
    Thermal and acoustic insulation;
    Easy to use.

Let's analyze all these aspects.
The appearance and functionality of hotel doors

Interior doors for hotels should be made of a durable and elegant material, such as wood. They should be painted with a bright, non-toxic paint in colors that match the rest of the style of the rooms. Choosing the right colors will help the door "blend" with the other walls, floors and rooms intended to welcome guests. If your hotel has wooden floors, for example, you may want to consider a similar color to the planks of the horizontal surfaces.

The door should be equipped with an external handle that allows you to "pull" the leaf, rather than "push". This arrangement allows people who use wheelchairs or have some kind of physical handicap to open the swing door without forcing themselves.

Flame protection

Flame protection is very important for doors used in hotels and B&Bs. This is because fires in accommodation facilities often start from a very simple episode such as a cigarette thrown on a bedspread or carpet. In these cases, the first sign of a fire is usually the smell of smoke. Some hotels use a system where all doors have small holes located above the frame. If the facility's system detects smoke, an alarm will sound and guests will be able to react in time.

In addition, REI doors allow for effective shielding against flames for a variable period of time. Read more about this in our fire door special.
Thermal and acoustic insulation for B&Bs and hotels

Soundproofing basically refers to how well a door handles noise. If a window lets through too many sounds, then it will be practically impossible not to hear the voice and all the noise from the neighboring rooms. This can cause problems for guests who are trying to sleep, or anyone with a hearing impairment. Therefore, the use of insulating doors is more necessary than ever.

Also, heat management should be considered. Old, or perhaps slightly run-down doors will struggle to keep the temperature stable, given that hot or cold air leaves the room too easily. In addition to a certain annoyance for guests, all this also affects the higher costs of heating and air conditioning. Interior doors, therefore, must also be equipped with good thermal insulation.
Easy to use

The main purpose of a hotel door is to allow someone to enter or exit the rooms. Therefore, anything that makes this task easier for guests is a positive.

Increasing the ease of use of hotel fixtures leads to a better use of the structure as a whole. Most people who have to use a wheelchair to get around, for example, also have to use a door to get in or out of the room. But if the frame doesn't open easily, or doesn't open at all, then this can be very frustrating. Therefore, when choosing doors it is essential to consider the needs of all types of travellers. If you succeed in this, the experience offered will improve, and with it the number of guests willing to choose your structure.
