It has already become traditional that right after the move, the new owner of the apartment tries to arrange the front door in his own way, embodying his ideas and preferences.

Entrance door trim can be done in a variety of ways. To do this, use a wide variety of materials, ranging from leatherette and dermantine to elegant tablecloths.


Door trim usually includes two layers: inner and outer. The inner layer plays the role of a soundproofing. They mainly use foam rubber, well known to the domestic consumer. Burlap, as well as crumpled paper, are equally effective at noise insulation. Wool, as well as felt, is not suitable for the inner layer, since such an environment is favorable for the appearance of moths.

As a rule, upholstery is placed on only one side of the door leaf. In this case, it is necessary to take into account the side in which the structure opens. At the edges of the upholstery, a kind of roller is usually made of rolled up material, and if you make a mistake with its placement, the door will simply not close.

Based on personal preferences, an additional narrow roller can be formed on the door frame. When closing the door, the rollers on the frame and the web are adjacent to each other, thus ensuring good tightness. If the door is opened inward, then the roller in the frame should be completely drowned.

When calculating the amount of upholstery, it is necessary to take into account the dimensions of the front door, adding 15 cm to it. Before laying the upholstery, the door leaf is removed from the hinges. Using strips of upholstery material, they make a kind of roller, after which along the entire perimeter of the door it is nailed to the canvas with nails.

At the next stage, foam rubber is rolled out, after which upholstery is laid on it, which is nailed with decorative nails at the door. To avoid creasing, the upholstery should be pulled as tight as possible on the canvas.

As mentioned above, there are many options for door trim. The simplest of them involves the use of braid, which is nailed with furniture nails to the canvas along its perimeter. Also, it is laid in the middle of the door, pulling it crosswise. An alternative to braid can be doubled dermantine strips, as well as their modern counterpart in the form of a wire rope.
