Common questions about Studform Doors & Frames
Do Studform doors come as standard products or can they be customised?
All Studform doors are custom-engineered to suit the specific requirements of each project. This includes size, finish, performance (acoustic, fire), and integration with surrounding systems such as partitions and ceilings.
Can Studform supply doors as part of a complete system?
Yes. Studform can provide integrated door, frame and partition systems, ensuring compatibility across performance requirements such as acoustic separation, fire rating, and structural movement.
When should Studform be engaged on a project?
Early engagement at the design and specification stage delivers the best outcomes. This allows Studform to support performance requirements, coordinate with other trades, and reduce risk through tested and compliant solutions. This is especially important for Fire Doors.
What is an acoustic door and when is it required?
An acoustic door is designed to limit the transmission of sound between spaces. It is typically required in environments such as healthcare, education, offices, and hotels where privacy, comfort, or compliance with acoustic standards is critical.
What impacts the acoustic performance of a door?
Acoustic performance is influenced by the entire door system, not just the leaf. Key factors include:
- Door leaf construction and core density
- Perimeter sealing (including drop seals)
- Frame design and installation quality
- Hardware and penetrations (e.g. vision panels, services)
Even small gaps can significantly reduce performance.
What is a fire-rated door and why is it important?
A fire-rated door is designed to resist the spread of fire and smoke for a specified period (e.g. 30, 60, 90 or 120 minutes). It is a critical life safety element, helping protect occupants and maintain safe egress paths.
Are installation guides and documentation provided?
Yes. Studform provides detailed documentation to support correct installation and ensure performance requirements are met on site. This is especially important for fire door installation.
