The benefits of soundproofing your office doors

When you’re working in an office, you want to be able to concentrate on your job to the best of your ability. Distractions are definitely not welcome, no matter whether your office is part of a busy block in a fast moving town or simply a single room in a quiet village. Noise from other people, passing vehicles, doors and windows opening and closing, and even office essentials like printers, air conditioning machines and water coolers are not what you want to hear, and always seem to find a way into your office, even with your office doors firmly closed. One way of dealing with excess noise is to install soundproof office doors.

Soundproof doors are made of a sandwich type construction, with the centre part being filled with something like mineral wool or foam, which can absorb any incoming or outgoing sound waves. They’re not just for musicians – they really can benefit office environments. Let us explain why you should consider soundproof doors for your office.

Knock industrial noise

Soundproof office doors are especially popular for offices which share space with noisy machinery. We’re not just talking about heavy manufacturing machinery – it could be something as commonplace as computer server rooms, which need noisy fans and monitors. With these distractions blocked out, you’ll find you’re less distracted, and your office is a safer, soundproof place to work.

Improve your acoustics

Getting rid of noise allows you to improve focus on what you do want to hear. Your boardroom members will hear speakers more clearly. Your call handlers will be able to listen to incoming callers without being distracted. Visitors will hear and be heard with ease. Where confidential matters are being discussed, you’ll know that there’s no danger of what you’re saying being overheard. Say goodbye to the frustration of not being able to hear, or be heard.

Better environmental control

Put yourself in control of the air in your office with a soundproof office door. A solid, soundproof door allows easier regulation of the temperature. The insulation properties of a soundproof door means that air won’t leak in or out. If you’ve spent money heating or cooling your office, you don’t want to lose the benefit as that temperature controlled air seeps out from your office. Soundproof doors can play a key part in keeping your energy bills down.

Improved aesthetics

Don’t think that a soundproof door is going to look brutally industrial and out of place with your soft furnishings. Enfield Doors can supply an acoustic door in popular hard and softwood frames, with multiple glazing options, paint finishes or laminate facings, and the aluminium thresholds allow easy fitting where you have soft floor coverings.
