A door is, quite fundamentally, a device that serves the purpose of closing an opening or a passage in a wall. Before humans used doors, they hung skins in their tent or cave entrances in prehistoric times.

An entrance door can lead into a house, into a building complex, or even into a factory hall or a basement. In an apartment building, people have to go through two doors to get home: first through the front door, which leads into the stairwell, and then through their apartment door.

An apartment door that is located in a stairwell and leads into the interior of an apartment is usually made of wood. For an entrance door that leads into an apartment building or a single-family house, which means from the outside into the interior, wood is not a good material, because constant contact with various weather conditions damages the sensitive material wood. Therefore, entrance doors consist of weather-resistant materials, currently often plastic, because it is easy-care and inexpensive. Sometimes plastic doors are also provided with glass elements.

Basement doors or entrance doors to factory or storage halls are frequently made of iron and steel. They are particularly burglar-proof and are suitable as security doors.

The Different Types of an Entrance Door

An apartment door can be a completely normal standard door, i.e., a simple door made of wood. Most of the time, however, an entrance door has further properties, for example, being filled with sound-insulating material. Then it is a soundproof door.

An entrance door to an apartment, but also to a house, can be a security door if it is solid and possesses further security elements, for example, a multi-point locking system or a security strike plate. Especially in the case of doors leading from the outside to the interior, this is usually sensibly the case in order to minimize the risk of a successful burglary. If a door meets the special requirements of the standards DIN 4102-5 and DIN 4102-18, it is a fire protection door.

Apartment and house doors are usually swing doors, which means they are installed on one side in the door frame and can be pulled open or pushed open inwards or outwards.
