EXCLUSIVE DOOR CORES
Depending on the height and width of the door, our 2″ XXL doors are available in Honeycomb, Tubular Core or Solid Core.
Insensation’s honeycomb core is a perfect hexagonal shaped strong and lightweight core made of 100% recycled paper. It has high pressure strength and is FSC-certified. Because all of our doors are XXL 2″ thick and with a very thick skin, even the honeycomb core doors are quite heavy.
Insensation’s tubular core offers better sound protection and is significantly heavier, without the disadvantages of solid core door. Our doors have a very low thickness swelling and a very high impact resistance. Tubular core is the standard core used on high-end real-estate in both Europe and the USA.
Insensation also offers solid cores on some products. Although they are generally overkill with our 2″ doors, they sometimes make sense in recording studios, banks and schools. The solid core 2″ leafs, in combination with self-closing hinges and drop-down seals, are also used where a fire-rating is needed. A 2″ solid core door is massively heavy and will require 2 people to install it. They generally weigh more than 200 lbs.
Note: The acoustic rating listed above is only for the core. All our doors have an additional 5/8″ skins on both sides of the door. This vastly improves the acoustic rating and adds significant weight.
