The new front door is not only a joy for the owner, but also security for the home. However, the installation of this element is associated with some troubles. For example, finishing the slopes of the entrance doors is a mandatory procedure that makes the opening beautiful and complete. Moreover, it closes all the technical aspects of the installation (cracks, foam).
Installation of metal entrance doors is a fairly simple, but troublesome process, because later you will have to clad the box. It should be noted that there are a lot of ways to design slopes, as well as materials. In order to choose the right material, it is necessary to take into account several nuances: the finish should provide a heat-insulating and decorative function, and also it simply must serve for a long and high quality.
Finishing slopes of entrance doors is an essential element of door installation. Moreover, the external beauty is the easiest to deal with, because at the moment there are a huge variety of different materials that will help you design the opening in the right style, take into account the color scheme and texture. As for the durability of the finish, it is necessary to choose the material that will not collapse under the influence of time or external environmental conditions. So, often for this purpose stone is used, as well as MDF board. Moreover, both the one and the other material provide good thermal insulation.
Finishing the slopes of the entrance doors must be done correctly, because otherwise it will not be able to fulfill its functions in full. As for the design of the opening indoors, for this you should use natural wood or MDF. Do not use plaster, drywall or putty for decoration, as these materials are very easy to damage.
Finishing the slopes of the entrance doors does not do without laying insulation under the facing material. Naturally, it is necessary to use the thickest layer that the cladding can only allow. This is especially true for a metal door, as condensation problems often arise. It is best to use mineral wool for insulation.
Of course, for the inner and outer sides of the box it is necessary to use the same material so as not to violate the aesthetics of the design.
Decorating door slopes can also be done with plastic, but this design is unlikely to save you from unnecessary problems. The material presented is not particularly durable, especially for
facing the front door. A tree is a wonderful option, but from the outside of the box you will have to process it with special impregnations that will protect it from the influence of external conditions, insects and moisture.
An interesting material for finishing is metal. However, if he comes to the door itself, then it is not a fact that he will effectively carry out his other functions.
In any case, to design the slopes of the front door, you must consult with experienced craftsmen. This way you can avoid installation errors and extend the life of the cladding material.
