Home's Biggest Heat Leak: Under the Door
Protecting the temperature of your home in winter is always a priority issue. Especially in old buildings or gaps formed between the entrance door and the floor are one of the biggest reasons for heat loss. Wind, cold air, and dust coming from under the door not only reduce the comfort of the house; they also significantly increase your energy bills. Traditional methods such as sausage drafts or simple rubber gaskets are often insufficient to solve this problem. This chronic problem is completely eliminated with the Automatic Guillotine Seal we developed in our modern steel doors.
What is Automatic Guillotine Seal?
The automatic guillotine seal is a system that descends automatically as soon as the door is closed. This mechanism completely closes the gap between the door and the floor, cutting wind, cold air, dust, and noise from outside by 100%. The working principle of the seal is simple: The seal, synchronized with the door handle or hinge mechanism, hangs down automatically when the door is closed and retracts when the door is opened. In this way, energy loss is prevented and no additional difficulty is created in door use.
Energy Saving and Comfort
Using an automatic guillotine seal provides energy saving in the home or workplace. While preventing warm air from escaping in winter months, it prevents cold air from entering inside in summer. In this way, heating and cooling systems work less, and a serious decrease is experienced in electricity and natural gas bills. Also, the seal increases the quality of life inside the house by reducing noise coming from outside. Under-door insulation is a critical detail for a quiet and comfortable life.
Durability and Long Life
Our automatic guillotine seals are produced with quality EPDM rubber and aluminum casings. These materials do not harden, crack, or deform over time. They provide use for years without maintenance. Although the door opens and closes constantly, the mechanism works smoothly and preserves its sealing feature. Thus, both energy efficiency and a long-lasting door experience are guaranteed.
Installation and Usage Tips
The automatic guillotine seal should be installed by professional teams during door installation. Full contact of the seal with the floor is critical for maximum sealing. Periodically, the mechanism should be cleaned, and dust or dirt accumulation should be prevented. When the moving parts on the upper part of the seal are cleaned with a soft cloth, the mechanism works smoothly for many years. This small maintenance makes a big difference in terms of energy saving and comfort.
Indispensable for Modern Life
Today, energy efficiency and living comfort are indispensable criteria of modern homes. Although heat loss occurring under the door seems like a small detail, it has a big impact on bills. Thanks to the automatic guillotine seal system, you both ensure energy savings in your home and completely eliminate cold air, dust, and noise. This small but effective detail guarantees both functional and comfortable use of your door. Energy saving starts from your door and spreads to every corner of your home.
