How to select the right Acoustic Doors or Doorsets for your project?

The acoustic headline data of Rw50dB to Rw63dB product range gives an indication of the calculated overall performance. But, all projects typically require a more detailed acoustic analysis to select the correct doorset. This is done to achieve the clients’ noise control needs and meet their performance expectations.

The range of IAC Acoustics soundproof doorsets are manufactured with specific considerations to different frequency bands.  This is particularly important at specification stage if your project is targeting a recognised noise control requirement or octave frequency band.  This could be low or high frequency, human voice or loud industrial machinery for Noise at Work compliance.  An example could be the requirement to control the 100Hz hum from an electricity transformer . This low frequency noise source will require a higher mass of doorset for effective noise control.

It is essential to meet a wide spectrum of noise control performance requirements,. So, our Noise-Lock® architectural acoustic doorset construction starts from a base 64mm leaf and matching frame with twin high performance self-aligning magnetic acoustic seals. It goes through to a 128mm leaf and matching frame with triple high performance self-aligning magnetic acoustic seals.

Similarly, our Super Noise-Lock® large industrial acoustic doorset construction range starts from 100mm leaf and frame with twin compression acoustic seals. It goes to a 150mm leaf and frame with triple compression acoustic seals.

You can view our technical data sheets for Noise-Lock®  & Super Noise-Lock® acoustic doorsets.  These will give you initial data and insight to the different acoustic performance characteristics so that you can do product selection for your project.
