Going Green with Ready-to-Assemble and Pre Hung Doors

Posted by Sarah M. On 9:01 AM 3 comments

If you’re an architect focusing on residential buildings, you know that sustainability is a major selling point. There are a lot of ways to design an eco-friendly home, such as building with recycled materials and insulating doors and windows to reduce energy costs. You can increase you green factor affordably and easily by investing in sustainable MDF doors, available as ready-to-assemble or pre hung doors.

Eco-friendly doors benefit both individual homeowners and the environment as a whole. The Energy Star rated insulation means that homeowners need to consume less energy, resulting in reduced utility bills and smaller carbon footprints.

But this same insulation can also protect a home from strong winds, earthquakes, and fires, as well as mold, moisture, termites, and other pests. They can also block noise from the outside, which means no more worrying about noisy neighbors!

Best of all, these custom wood doors are sustainable right from production, as they are composed of 100% recycled material. Recycled doors help reduce deforestation, leaving more trees to replenish the atmosphere by converting carbon dioxide into oxygen. With so many great benefits, eco-friendly custom wood doors are a smart decision for any residential architect.

    Don't be fooled, these are difficult to install! I would go with the wood doors in Toronto if I were you. They are much easier and more reliable.
