When are high security doors required?

One of the major concerns for any home or business owner is the safety and protection of your people and premises. The threat of criminal intrusion to either residential or commercial premises can be effectively deterred with the installation of high security doors. Here are some aspects of security doors to consider when choosing this important feature of your premises:

Timber security doors look stylish

When you mention high security doors, it probably conjures up images of industrial, cumbersome doors that look formidable and drab. The reality, however, is very different – timber security doors can be aesthetically pleasing and complement your premises! High security wooden doors look stylish and attractive in any environment but are especially effective in premises such as high specification apartment complexes and social housing projects.

Security fire doors offer a range of functions

Although the main function of security doors is to provide protection from criminal intrusion, they can provide another vital function – fire safety! Security fire doors can help stop the spread of any fire outbreak in your home or business premises – they offer fire resistance and will help contain the problem to the outbreak area thus creating time for any building evacuation and for emergency services to arrive to deal with the issue professionally.

There are different levels of security fire doors resistance available – it is always worth consulting a qualified expert to advise you on the most appropriate security fire doors and their placement in your building. One of the best examples of these doors is the new high-security fire-resistant entrance doors from Enfield Speciality Doors.

The PAS24 FD30 doors are fully certified for both fire and security protection and are ideal for internal entrance doors in apartment complex premises. These doors fulfil all requirements for smoke control and fire resistance as well the enhanced security aspects. They are not only functionally effective but also come in a range of finishes and door furniture that make these doors aesthetically pleasing to the eye.

Enhanced security and effective protection from intrusion

High security wooden doors will provide enhanced security and safety as well as, in some cases, effective sound reduction if your environment requires it. The doors themselves, along with the frames and door hardware, will have all been tested thoroughly to ensure that the timber security doors provide the most effective protection against criminal attempts to breach your property, along with the aforementioned fire safety application.

There are added benefits to installing high security wooden doors in your premises, such as potentially lower building insurance costs and, when installed in residential properties, a potential increase in the property value itself – not forgetting the all-important peace of mind of the enhanced security and safety that these high security doors bring!
