Top best input metal. We choose the best metal door according to various criteria. The best anti-burglary systems

Explaining the functionality of the front door is rather stupid - this is a thing that no private house or apartment can do without; perhaps the most important attribute of the security of personal housing. Of course, the degree of reliability of such doors is highly dependent on the price segment. The cheapest models can only boast of a pleasant appearance - the protection functions here will be performed purely nominally.

In the case of more expensive doors, developers bother both with design and reliability parameters, supplementing the design with stiffeners, and also using sheets of two millimeters or more as a basis.

The market segment of entrance doors is very extensive, and includes a huge number of manufacturing companies. We decided to focus only on some of the best time-tested companies. Your attention is presented to the top 10 best manufacturers of entrance doors in two main categories. The final list was formed based on the following criteria:

customer reviews about the experience of use;
professional opinion;
the breadth of the model range;
company's reputation.

The best manufacturers of entrance doors in the budget price segment

5 Outpost

The best price for products
A country: Russia (produced in China)
Rating (2019): 4.6

The company enjoyed great popularity until 2009. She began her thorny path not so long ago - production was launched in 1998. For 11 years, Forpost fought hard for profit, but in the already mentioned 2009, the management realized that it was possible to reduce the cost of the door manufacturing process only by moving production to China. From that moment on, things went uphill - the products began to "stamp" 500 thousand copies a year.

In general, users are satisfied with the Chinese origin of the doors, but cases of break-ins or unexpected breakdowns overtake some at the most inopportune moments. This is explained very simply - from the moment the company moved to China, fake copies under the Forpost trademark began to enter the market.

Advantages:

low cost even for elite doors;
good concentration of service centers throughout the country, proper service;
a good choice - a wide range of entrance doors.

Flaws:

fittings are suitable and supplied only from the factory;
brings sound insulation in individual models;
presence on the market of low-quality fakes.

4 Groff

Premium quality at an average price
Country Russia
Rating (2019): 4.8

Groff is one of the official trademarks of the manufacturer Bravo, specializing in the sale of metal entrance doors. It is strikingly different from the classic products of the management company by the use of exceptionally thick steel, a reinforced structure with additional stiffeners, refractory mineral wool manufactured by Knauf, as well as complete fittings (handles, locks, hinges, canopies, etc.).

The aesthetics of Groff doors is matched to the high nominal quality, and is laid down at the early design stages thanks to the work of in-house designers. Ultimately, consumers receive ready-made solutions for installation in apartments and private houses, the guarantee of a long service life of which is confirmed by a ten-year mandatory maintenance period from the manufacturers themselves. Undoubtedly, one of the most worthy candidates for a place in the rating, both according to user reviews and expert opinion.

3 Bravo

Availability in the range of products for various market segments
Country Russia
Rating (2019): 4.8

The indispensable leader of the domestic segment of entrance doors of recent times, the model range of which includes over 350 units of the original product. In this catalog, doors created using modern 3D-Graf finishing technology are presented separately, the cost of which is significantly higher than the market average.

However, there is an alternative option, the cheapness of which is due to the use of veneer. From the point of view of execution, the entrance doors of the manufacturer Bravo do not differ in abundance, but this is fully compensated by reliability and quality. The products of this company are also successfully sold under other trademarks, such as Bravo Lux and BelDver, bringing a good profit to the owner. Regarding user feedback, we can conclude the following: a number of models of the budget segment of the company have mediocre sound insulation, but all of them, without exception, provide reliable protection against drafts, which is due to the use of good seals and insulating material with pronounced thermal functions.

2 Neman

The best combination of price and quality
Country Russia
Rating (2019): 4.8

A company that knows a lot about true security. It has a wide range of models and a very good price for its products. It cares not only (and not so much) about safety, but about the appearance of the doors - their product obviously does not occupy entertainment.

In terms of reliability, everything is fine - the doors are made of thick alloy steel sheets and all, without exception, are equipped with a double lock. But the number of locking elements can be increased at the request of the user. It is also striking that the buyer can choose fittings from other manufacturers - Neman's sense of pride is far from off scale (unlike some competitors).

Advantages:

availability of quality certificates for all major safety parameters;
acceptable cost of product lines;
abundance of design solutions.

Flaws:

not detected.

1 Steel

The choice of users and professionals
Country Russia
Rating (2019): 4.9

Purely technically, the Stal company is like the premium manufacturer Elbor - their doors also have progressive burglary protection and good reliability characteristics in general. However, the main difference lies in the price category: if Elbor is focused on the production of doors for all three price segments, then there are no very expensive models in the arsenal of Stal. But there is a well-deserved love of users who, as one, speak positively about the company's products.

Professionals do not lag behind happy consumers, noting that although the company has some "punctures" in the form of unsuccessful models for apartments and private houses, it is still an exemplary mid-level manufacturer.

Advantages:

a variety of options for exterior door trim;
compliance with all preferences and wishes of the buyer;
good service;
a wide range of goods.

Flaws:

some models do not differ in branded quality.

The best manufacturers of entrance doors in the middle price segment

5 Fortus

Huge selection of entrance doors on the "do it yourself" model. Over a thousand different style combinations
Country: Germany
Rating (2019): 4.7

The German giant in the production of entrance doors has one interesting trend that is different from the vast majority of direct competitors. Instead of selling ready-made solutions, they accept orders for the manufacture of an individual product, assembled according to all the canons of designers loved since childhood. Thus, a wide range of choices is available to consumers in terms of the number of door leaves, the complexity of locks, their degree of burglary resistance, the color and material of the door leaf (metal, wood, combined) and the shape of the fittings, as well as the type of finish.

Through simple mathematical operations, we found out that there are over a thousand options for combining the parameters of Fortus entrance doors. Therefore, any user will be able to find a door for both an apartment and a private house. According to numerous reviews, the products of this company have a high degree of reliability, do not suffer from problems with sound insulation and heat preservation inside the premises.

4 Dierre

Great product design. Rapidly evolving portfolio with a focus on cutting-edge developments
Country: Italy
Rating (2019): 4.8

Dierre is an Italian firm for the production of reliable entrance doors, which is in the elite of the segment and does not need excessive formal introductions. Its main feature is the full reliance on advanced developments, which are introduced into the design of products at any convenient opportunity. Thus, recent trends have led to the creation of "smart" doors, with the function of locking and unlocking the lock using a remote control (for example, the Elettra range).

The second important quality of doors from Dierre is the observance of a special style, sustained within the framework of moderate chic and delicacy. Any design of the door leaf is accompanied by the selection of unique fittings, which gives the product a touch of exclusivity and exclusivity (At-3 model). Yes, the cost is very high, but the quality, appearance and reliability fully compensates for this shortcoming.

3 Guardian

Aesthetic appearance
Country Russia
Rating (2019): 4.8

Russian plant for the manufacture of metal doors, which began its work in 1994. Quite deservedly enjoys the title of the best manufacturer of beautiful doors. Precisely beautiful, because the aesthetics of performance very often interests users in the first place. Regarding the reliability of products, everything is also good - the door collections have a number of domestic and international quality certificates in the field of fire safety, sound insulation, burglary protection and operational durability.

But among the minuses, not the most efficient service can be distinguished: according to consumer reviews, malfunctions that have arisen during use (even if minor ones) are eliminated over a long period of time.

Advantages:

fitting the door and door frame at the highest level (gaps are minimal);
a wide range of products in all price segments;
conformity of products to high quality standards;
the main filling material is a cotton-mineral plate.

Flaws:

not the fastest service.

2 TOREX

Optimal balance of security options
Country Russia
Rating (2019): 4.9

The enterprise, whose head office and assembly shop are located in the city of Saratov. Production facilities were launched in 1989 - almost before the collapse of the Soviet Union. However, in just a few years, the company has gained great popularity not only in the countries of the USSR, but also abroad. At the moment, TOREX has eight warehouses on the territory of the CIS countries, from which, in fact, the main trade with the world takes place.

From the positive features of the company, one can note a good service, a huge variety of model lines and the highest quality of each individual product. Of course, all this has one drawback, and it obviously lies in the high cost. But quality, as well as the peace of mind that comes with it, comes at a cost.

Advantages:

excellent heat resistance (from 15 minutes to 5-6 hours);
compliance with all key safety standards;
an extensive range of goods;
in most cases - an attractive design.

Flaws:

high price and expensive service.

1 Elbor

High degree of protection against hacking
Country Russia
Rating (2019): 4.9

You can hear a lot of flattering reviews about the doors of the Elbor company and, it should be noted, very deservedly so. The plant began to function back in 1976, but it specialized far from the production of doors - in those days, all enterprises worked for the benefit of the defense power of the Land of Soviets. It is impossible to come up with a better start - to re-qualify the "defense industry" of the country for the production of an almost defensive element of personal space. It is this fact that determined the high quality of metal entrance doors, the main merit of which is almost complete immunity to breaking. However, in other aspects, the models from Elbor show themselves on the good side. The only drawback is the high cost of products, in fact, excluding the presence of doors of the lower price segment.

Advantages:

original design aimed at increasing the protection of doors from breaking;
the main type of filler is mineral wool;
use of refractory coatings;
excellent appearance in all five model series.

Flaws:

high cost of production.

How to choose a reliable front door

Choosing a good front door is a matter of responsibility and personal conscience of each user. Of course, you can resort to the proven method “the more expensive the better”, however, if finances do not allow you to purchase a premium product, we recommend that you pay attention to the following characteristics for choosing an entrance door yourself:

Base number of locks. If you have no desire to make an individual order, and you have to choose from a limited number of models, give preference to doors with several installed locks. It is desirable that they represent fundamentally different mechanisms - if one of the locks is opened, there are guarantees that the second one will create a problem for the conditional burglar.

Availability of additional locking elements. The optional inclusion of locks such as an ordinary latch (or, at worst, a simple chain) will be a nice addition and a bonus to protecting the door when trying to break in.

Door hinge type. Recently, hidden hinges have been especially popular, cut under a decent layer of metal for all the same security needs from hacking. However, the installation of such elements increases the overall cost of the structure and the work carried out. Therefore, if the budget is limited, hidden loops can be neglected (or save on other options).

Type of exterior finish. A parameter that is responsible not so much for safety as for the neat appearance of the front door. Finishing with fabric and wood is acceptable for private houses, when security is guaranteed already at the stage of entering the yard. For apartments, preference should be given to metal doors with a fireproof powder coating, which gives the doors additional strength.

insulating material. The presence of an insulating filler determines the throughput of the door leaf to noise and cold / hot air. The most optimal material is mineral wool, which almost completely absorbs external noise and ensures the preservation of heat inside the corridor. Cheap doors have no filler at all.

The company "World of Steel Doors" is the leader in the production of entrance metal doors in the Moscow region. The catalog of the company is constantly updated. Consider the TOP-10 for the period 2018-2019.
