The features of recording studio doors

When you are recording, the last thing you want is to pick up on any background noise. From other doors slamming to people talking, outdoor traffic to phones ringing, it can be hugely time-wasting, as well as incredibly frustrating. In many cases, you’ll only get one or two chances to get it right. You don’t want to lose out simply by having the wrong type of recording studio doors.

So what makes the difference? Ultimately, what you need are soundproof doors. You can get a range of different sound reduction doors, which also serve as being fire resistant. From painted designs to beautifully crafted wooden doors in oak, maple or other types of wood, there are plenty of bespoke design options to choose from to ensure your studio looks as stylish as it is practical.

Recording studio doors reduce outside noise

Choosing your soundproof studio doors should be a careful and well-researched decision. Not all are created equal when it comes to sound reduction. This is because they can change in quality depending on the type of noise frequencies that you’re picking up on in your audio recording.

Therefore, you should aim to ensure you have identified exactly what your problem is before picking out a door that will work. It will also require taking into account the acoustics of the room to ensure you get it absolutely right. Concerns such as diffusion and absorption in the materials used on the surfaces of the studio are also considered, as well as the layout and dimensions of the space.

Effective acoustic doors are supplied on pre-hung frames

Another key feature of good acoustic doors is the seal that is used to help prevent any sound coming through the door edges. This can improve the effectiveness of the soundproof door. The doors are all pre-hung to a frame that matches them, rather than being purchased separately.

Soundproof doors can also contain glazed screens

Sound-proof doors may also contain glass which can help stop people opening and closing the door to see who is inside. This disruption can interrupt sound quality, so is important to address. It also adds to their styling and enables them to stream natural light into a room.

Acoustic doors have fire prevention qualities

Soundproof studio doors can be just as good for schools, hospitals, theatres, hotels, universities and commercial offices. There are plenty of requirements for them, including in recording studios. Not only do they help to stop sound from travelling but they can also act as fire safety doors, which can help your office health and safety standard.
