There are a wide variety of wood security doors currently on the market. Some of those doors are made to look like screen doors and contain only a small amount of protection. Other doors like the ones from the
China Simoto Group are created to function as a typical entryway door. This means that customers not only get a great looking design, but they also get the best in protection.
One great example of this is found in the XDM-803. This door is completely customizable from the size to the type of wood used. The customer can order the door in MDF, which is essentially wood fibers glued together to create a solid piece of wood or they can choose the standard all wood construction though this option is a little more expensive. Once the customer places their order, the measurements are inputed into a computer and then carefully monitored to ensure that the door reaches those specific dimensions.
Another wood security door is the XDG-713-H. This fairly plain door is best for those who want something basic, without a lot of frills. Rolled steel is used to create a frame, with PVC used around the edges to make the door a little lighter than it would be otherwise. Covering all of this is a wood material with a slight etched design around the edges. Measuring 32 by 80, its a very plain wood security door.
A little more elaborate in the world of wood security doors is the XDG-710-C, which contains a rectangular design sketched into the middle of the door with smaller rectangles etched into that. This standard door measures 32 wide and 80 tall as well as being 2 thick. To increase the protection of the door, the manufacturers have also added an all steel frame inside the door.
The rectangular designed XDG-706-K is a wood security door with a little more decoration. Six rectangular blocks are carved onto the face of the door to give it the appearance of a traditional entryway door. However it offers more protection than those doors thanks to the rolled steel frame inside the door. At two inches thick, eighty inches tall and 32 inches wide, it is only available in this one standard size.
Another door only available in the standard 32/80/2 size is the XDG-712-D. Covering rolled steel frame are pieces of PVC to strengthen the door and pieces of wood. The wood is then stained a dark brown color that looks incredibly deep and rich. A computer is then used to etch out a slight design along the left hand side of the door. Though its fairly plain, its also a popular wood security door.
This company also makes the relatively plain XDG-715-K, another wood security door. This one has the same dark wood color of the last door, but has a very simple design. A rectangular block is literally sketched into the face of the door, close to the edges. It comes in only one size, which is the 32 wide and 80 tall size, with a width of 2, which fits both interior and exterior doorframes.
Those who want a wood security door, but want one in a classic white color should focus on the XDG-716-M from the same company. Two rectangular boxes are etched into the front of the door, with the top rectangle having an arched design. It measures 80 tall, 32 wide and 2 thick. The interior of the door has an all steel frame, while the outside features a PVC frame to cut down on the heft and weight of the door.
The XD-SN9 is another basic wood security door that might not have much of a design, but more than provides security for homeowners. This door has an interior of rolled steel and fiber filling, which is then topped with a wood material. The door also has PVC used in the construction. The purpose is to provide additional protection while still keeping the weight of the door lower, which lowers the cost of shipping and makes installation easy. Customers can also order this with an attached doorframe if they want to use it as an interior door or if they need to replace the doorframe in their current home. This wood security door only comes in the standard size of 32 inches by 80 inches.
Wood security doors are a top choice for homeowners and shoppers. They love that the doors look great and are made of hardwood, but they also love the protection these doors offer. The
China Simoto Group is by far not the only company making these doors, but they are one of the more popular companies. Unlike other companies that exclude hardware and the equipment needed to install the door, customers will find that these doors contain everything they need for proper installation and use.
