Convenience and reliability of Monolith entrance doors

4 main components of Monolith doors that guarantee convenience for you

• Silence of Locks
  • For our doors, we most often use modern gear locks, which operate significantly quieter than other models. For example, the Cisa Revolution Pro lock functions almost silently. We also suggest you pay attention to motorized models such as ISEO. These locks are louder, but will be more reliable as they can be equipped with a fingerprint scanner, card, phone, and smart home system.
• Ease of Door Movement
  • In this matter, it is worth pointing out an interesting nuance. Simple logic suggests that the heavier the door, the harder it should move, and vice versa. However, the ease of door movement mostly depends not on the weight, but on its geometry, properly selected hinges, and bearings. Thus, a deformed door weighing 30–40 kg will be much harder to operate than a correctly shaped 300 kg door with well-chosen auxiliary elements.
    It is also a mistake to think that the more hinges a door has, the more reliable and unbreakable it is. Extra hinges that are not aligned with the axis will create slack and self-destruct. Over time, they can damage the geometry of the frame, which will cause squeaking and complicate the use of the door.
    Doors weighing up to one ton can be supported by two Monolith-made hinges, which, unlike mass-market hinges, are designed for use in armored doors. As a result, a correctly manufactured door with high-quality bearings and hinges, even weighing up to half a ton, can be easily opened by a child.
• Convenience of Lock Usage
  • Monolith doors usually have two locks: a lever lock and a cylinder lock. There are cases when we are asked if two locks are enough for reliable protection. This question lies at the intersection of anti-burglary resistance and convenience. Naturally, the most convenient option could be considered built-in smart systems, where there are no locks at all. However, if you are a fan of classic models, we assure you that two reliable locks are the optimal solution. Furthermore, you won't have to choose the locks yourself, as our entire range of armored door models is balanced in terms of design, locks, and their protection.
• Smart Solutions for Doors
  • As mentioned earlier, door models are available to you that do not require the use of keys, opening with a phone, card, or fingerprints. This could be a motorized cylinder that combines most of the advantages of electric and mechanical locks, a smart handle, or the most convenient door model with an automatic user recognition system.
    We recommend you watch our separate video, which is fully dedicated to electric locks, their advantages, and cost. It should also be noted that the door design may not include such familiar elements as fittings and keyholes at all, and the budget for such solutions can exceed the cost of the door itself.
• Is it possible to order a door without finishing?
  • We recommend installing the door at the final stage of renovation, when all the dirtiest work is completed. We also offer an excellent alternative option and can install the main part of the door without interior and exterior finishing. The metal structure is complete with the frame, painted edges, and locking mechanisms, and is also covered with primer. In this case, you will be able to choose the entrance door finishing in accordance with the new interior after all renovation work is completed.
    It is important to say that this option requires a separate payment for additional installation services.

In conclusion, we want to say—remember that doors should be not only durable but also aesthetic and convenient, because you deserve the best!
