5 Outpost
Country: Russia (produced in China)
Rating (2022): 4.6
The production of entrance doors of the Forpost brand was launched in 1998. Since 2009, most of the production facilities have been transferred to China, which allows us to maintain an optimal balance between the cost and quality of goods. The prices are really very budgetary, but at the same time the doors meet all Russian standards, they are quite reliable, they provide the necessary, although not the maximum, level of sound insulation.
In general, users are satisfied with the Chinese origin of the doors, but cases of break-ins or unexpected breakdowns overtake some at the most inopportune moments. This is explained very simply - from the moment the company moved to China, fake copies under the Forpost trademark began to enter the market.

Groff is one of the official trademarks of the manufacturer Bravo, specializing in the sale of metal entrance doors.It is strikingly different from the classic products of the management company by the use of exceptionally thick steel, a reinforced structure with additional stiffeners, refractory mineral wool manufactured by Knauf, as well as complete fittings (handles, locks, hinges, canopies, etc.).

Ultimately, consumers receive ready-made solutions for installation in apartments and private houses, the guarantee of a long service life of which is confirmed by a ten-year mandatory maintenance period from the manufacturers themselves.

4 Dierre
Country: Italy
Rating (2022): 4.8
Dierre is an Italian firm for the production of reliable entrance doors, which is in the elite of the segment and does not need excessive formal introductions. Its main feature is the full reliance on advanced developments, which are introduced into the design of products at any convenient opportunity. Thus, recent trends have led to the creation of "smart" doors, with the function of locking and unlocking the lock using a remote control (for example, the Elettra range).
The second important quality of doors from Dierre is the observance of a special style, sustained within the framework of moderate chic and delicacy. Any design of the door leaf is accompanied by the selection of unique fittings, which gives the product a touch of exclusivity and exclusivity (At-3 model). Yes, the cost is very high, but the quality, appearance and reliability fully compensates for this shortcoming.
3 Neman
Country: Russia
Rating (2022): 4.8
The Neman company knows a lot about true security. The range has a wide range of models and a very good price. The manufacturer cares not only about safety, but also about the appearance of the doors - their product obviously does not hold entertainment. The models are produced in Russia at a factory located in the Kostroma region.
In terms of reliability, everything is fine - the doors are made of thick alloy steel sheets and all, without exception, are equipped with a double lock. But the number of locking elements can be increased at the request of the user. It is also striking that the buyer can choose fittings from other manufacturers - Neman's sense of pride is far from off scale (unlike some competitors).

1 SIGMA DOORS
Country: Russia
Rating (2022): 4.9
SIGMA DOORS can safely claim the title of the best company for the implementation of steel doors with production in St. Petersburg and Yoshkar-Ola.Products are also distributed in Moscow and the region, as the office and warehouse are located in the city. It is convenient that the company also offers delivery and installation services, however, entrance doors are sent to the regions by a transport company.
If we talk about quality, then it is worth mentioning that metal structures are made only from one-piece bent fabric, which ensures the rigidity and resistance to squeezing of the fabric. It should also be noted the excellent sound insulation, which is achieved by sizing the box with automotive vibration isolation. Good resistance to break-ins is also pleasing, because the company completes its doors with locks from leading manufacturers. The only thing worth considering is that although the prices are reasonable, there are no very cheap options in the assortment, since SIGMA DOORS focuses on quality.
How to choose a reliable front door
Choosing a good front door is a matter of responsibility and personal conscience of each user. Of course, you can resort to the proven method “the more expensive the better”, however, if finances do not allow you to purchase a premium product, we recommend that you pay attention to the following characteristics for choosing an entrance door yourself:
Base number of locks. If you do not want to make an individual order, but you have to choose from a limited number of models, give preference to doors with several installed locks. It is desirable that they represent fundamentally different mechanisms - if one of the locks is opened, there are guarantees that the second one will create a problem for the conditional cracker.
Availability of additional locking elements.The optional inclusion of locks such as an ordinary latch (or, at worst, a simple chain) will be a nice addition and a bonus to protecting the door when trying to break in.
Door hinge type. Recently, hidden hinges have been especially popular, cut under a decent layer of metal for all the same security needs from hacking. However, the installation of such elements increases the overall cost of the structure and the work carried out. Therefore, if the budget is limited, hidden loops can be neglected (or save on other options).
Type of exterior finish. A parameter that is responsible not so much for safety as for the neat appearance of the front door. Finishing with fabric and wood is acceptable for private houses, when security is guaranteed already at the stage of entering the yard. For apartments, preference should be given to metal doors with a fireproof powder coating, which gives the doors additional strength.
insulating material. The presence of an insulating filler determines the throughput of the door leaf to noise and cold / hot air. The most optimal material is mineral wool, which almost completely absorbs external noise and ensures the preservation of heat inside the corridor. Cheap doors have no filler at all.
