glass and iron door
Here’s our problem — the beautiful old wooden entry door (with glass parts) enters directly into our brownstone owner’s triplex. The abundant summer street noise flows through it, and then into the entire house given our largely open layout. We’ve had the door repaired but there’s only so much we can do. We don’t want…
Here’s our problem — the beautiful old wooden entry door (with glass parts) enters directly into our brownstone owner’s triplex. The abundant summer street noise flows through it, and then into the entire house given our largely open layout. We’ve had the door repaired but there’s only so much we can do. We don’t want to tear down or cover up old door, but here’s the idea. Right now we have decorative iron bars in front of the door as a security door. Why not replace with a glass / iron decorated security door and seal it up pretty tight to help block more sound.
I’ve seen plenty of doors like this, but can’t find someone who makes them (glass doors, yes; iron bars, yes — but not what I’m talking about). Anyone have any ideas? Much appreciated.
Don’t have a company for you, but the type of door you describe seems to me to be more common on large apartment buildings, rather than on houses. So maybe you should try look for commercial suppliers to buildngs. Or spot one on a building and see if you can ask if they know who does such work (many of these buildings do have their old doors repaired sometimes.) Might be easier to find out if you know someone who lives in such a coop.
