Soundproof window and door selection, noise reduction
Wall soundproofing is paramount in a home's soundproofing plan, as it yields the most noticeable noise reduction, and its effectiveness depends on the materials used. Below are some key methods for selecting wall soundproofing materials.
Soundproof window and door selection for noise reduction
Soundproof door selection: Check the core filling material
Common soundproof doors include three main categories: filled core soundproof doors, externally wrapped soundproof doors, and fireproof soundproof doors. Different types of soundproof doors have different core fillings, resulting in vastly different sound insulation effects.
Selection: You can choose based on the material of the core filling. Generally, molded soundproof doors with a honeycomb-structured paper-based core create an airtight layer that provides sound insulation. How to save money on renovations?

Doors with particleboard cores offer better sound insulation; high-quality particleboard doors can achieve 32 decibels of sound insulation, significantly exceeding the national standard of 22 to 25 decibels. Low-quality doors merely use cardboard to roughly divide the hollow core, resulting in poor sound insulation.
As for relatively expensive solid wood and solid wood composite doors, the sound insulation effect depends on the density, weight, and thickness of the wood itself; the higher the density, the heavier the weight, and the thicker the door, the better the sound insulation.
Soundproof window selection: Choose brands, check the sealing strips
Soundproof windows incorporate a vacuum layer between the two panes of glass. This vacuum layer utilizes a break-bridge structure, with air removed from the hollow section to create a vacuum, effectively cutting off the sound transmission path and achieving sound insulation and noise reduction.
Selection: Because soundproof windows have significantly different technical requirements than ordinary windows, you should first choose products from reputable brands; secondly, check the quality of the sealing strips. The sealing strips should be made of soft, elastic, and anti-aging materials. The quality of the sealing strips directly affects the sound insulation of the soundproof window. To prevent sound leakage through gaps, the sealing strips of the soundproof window should form a closed loop, with no gaps at the four corners.
