Going Green with Ready-to-Assemble and Pre Hung Doors

If you’re an architect focusing on residential buildings, you know that sustainability is a major selling point. There are a lot of ways to design an eco-friendly home, such as building with recycled materials and insulating doors and windows to reduce energy costs. You can increase you green factor affordably and easily by investing in sustainable MDF doors, available as ready-to-assemble or pre hung doors.

Eco-friendly doors benefit both individual homeowners and the environment as a whole. The Energy Star rated insulation means that homeowners need to consume less energy, resulting in reduced utility bills and smaller carbon footprints.

But this same insulation can also protect a home from strong winds, earthquakes, and fires, as well as mold, moisture, termites, and other pests. They can also block noise from the outside, which means no more worrying about noisy neighbors!

Best of all, these custom wood doors are sustainable right from production, as they are composed of 100% recycled material. Recycled doors help reduce deforestation, leaving more trees to replenish the atmosphere by converting carbon dioxide into oxygen. With so many great benefits, eco-friendly custom wood doors are a smart decision for any residential architect.

Choose Custom Wood Doors for Your Renovation

Renovating a building is a lot different than starting from scratch. You've got a space with preexisting walls, windows, and doors — among other features — and while it's possible to ignore or build over these elements, it's often better to preserve what you can. For example, many architects choose to fill their old door frames and openings with custom wood doors from a door distributor. This allows them to both conserve materials and embrace the building's original character.

Custom commercial wood doors can actually be retro-fitted to frames and openings, meaning that no space is too big or too small. And if you are envisioning a large or “statement” door, these kinds of custom wood doors are available as well.

That all sounds great, but who has the time to wait for a custom order to go through? When you order from www.DoorStopNY.com, your custom commercial wood doors will be ready in no time with the DOOR-N-24 program. Even large orders are available within a week. Plus, Door Stop will help you determine your exact sizing and installation needs. If only the rest of your renovation was this easy!

What Kinds of Buildings Need Fire Rated Doors?

Fire rated doors are doors designed to keep smoke and fire out of an area for a designated amount of time, usually between 20 and 90 minutes. Of course, different buildings require different amounts of time — while one office building might be satisfied with 45-minute doors, a more at-risk factory would probably prefer doors built to withstand the full 90 minutes.

Rated doors are more common in commercial buildings than residential homes, although the needs vary dramatically per space. Some buildings only require fire rated doors for their emergency exit stairwells, while others will want nearly all of their doors to be fire rated. Overall, fire rated doors are most frequently used in public buildings, offices, and communal living areas such as dormitories.

Fortunately, fire rated doors aren't all function — they are also available in a variety of attractive forms, featuring MDF, stile and rail, and flush wood materials. And like any custom wood doors, fire rated doors can be modified to include any combination of glass, hardware, veneers, and more. They can even be certified under LEED criteria!

Commerical Woods Doors Aren't a Dime a Dozen

Doors are ubiquitous in commercial and residential settings.

We’re so used to seeing them, that we don’t realize just how many varieties and styles are out there. The average consumer is unaware of the intricacies that distinguish commercial wood doors from others. So it’s pretty common for people who are remodeling to take the door selection process lightly by assuming that they’re all the same.

In residential settings you have a little more leeway with choosing a door, but in commercial settings it’s a little more important that you’re choosing the right door for your business environment.

Choosing and installing commercial wood doors that don’t work for your business, could mean delays in productivity that cost you time and money. If concerned with choosing the right commercial wood door and having it installed properly, it’s imperative that you consult Door Stop NY’s professional and knowledgeable staff.

Let us LEED You To Success!

LEED, or Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design has been around for 12 years, and is an internationally recognized standard that establishes green strategies for energy savings, water efficiency, carbon dioxide emissions reduction, and improved indoor environmental quality.

LEED certification is based on 100 points with only forty needed to become certified. These points are awarded according to sustainability (26), water efficiency (10), energy and atmosphere, (35) materials and resources, (14) indoor environmental quality, (15) innovation in design (6) and regional priority (4). So it isn’t that difficult to get in the LEED, but it may be hard to be gold or platinum certified, because you need upwards of sixty points.

LEED lasts throughout the entirety of a building’s existence – from design and construction, to maintenance and redevelopment. It isn’t only for commercial services, either. LEED can be applied to residential structures and schools. And it doesn’t have to be applied to the whole building; LEED can certify a four floor area.

So if you want the transparency involved in determining the construction of a project, we offer doors compatible with LEED standards, without minerals and particles, with AgriFibers and renewable materials. Drop by www.DoorStopNY.com today to get in the LEED!
