Closing the door on poor acoustic management: Effective sound control design for doors

As populations rise and urban densification continues, commercial and multi-residential spaces have become busier and noisier than ever. In light of this, the architecture and design industry is investigating options for acoustic control.

In their new whitepaper, Closing the door on poor acoustic management: Effective sound control design for doors, acoustic specialists Allegion take a closer look at acoustic doors, a highly effective but often overlooked means of acoustic control.

To begin, the whitepaper provides an overview of acoustic control and underscores the importance of managing noise levels in commercial and multi-residential developments. It then explores the ways that noise can be controlled, and examines how acoustic door design can be used to ensure optimum acoustic performance. To conclude, the whitepaper takes a closer look at the high performance, discreet Sound Trap acoustical gasketing systems.
