Invisible solution for a variety of problems

Sometimes the smallest things can create a lot of problems. The space between the bottom edge of the door and the floor is one of these. This gap can let hot or cold air in, sound can travel from one place to another, and it can be a safety issue in case of a fire. Our Planet drop-down door seals solve these problems and make our customers’ lives safer and easier.

Drop-down door seals close the gap between the door and the floor by automatically dropping a seal from inside the door when it is closed and withdrawing it when the door is opened. This allows for the smooth movement of the door while still sealing the gap perfectly. All the while the door seal stays hidden inside the door, keeping the look of the door intact and the solution almost invisible.

Often the gap is taken care of by a threshold, but they create a problem with accessibility. A threshold can be a barrier for mobility access and they can also make it more difficult for anyone pushing a cart when delivering something through an entrance. The drop-down door seals keeps the buildings barrier-free.

Saving energy and money

Temperature differences between inside and outside can be remarkable and no-one wants to either let warm air escape outside during winter or let the sweltering heat inside during summer. Door seals can help our customers meet their energy-efficiency goals by creating a thermal seal between inside and outside.

Energy-waste can happen inside buildings too. A fully closed door helps to maintain temperature differentials as not every space often requires the same level of heating. Closed interior doors can also help the overall temperature control of the building since they reduce stack pressure, which can cause unwanted inward airflow on the ground floor. Saving energy with door-seals is not only good for the environment, but it can help save money.

A small change can create a variety of benefits

Closing the gap between the door and the floor can also offer a variety of other benefits for our customers. The door seals reduce noise and light pollution and create more privacy. They can improve the air quality and reduce draft too. The door seals can also increase protection against fire and smoke.

The door seals are easily fitted to almost any door. They can be installed to new or existing doors and it doesn’t matter if they are made of wood, glass, metal or PVC. They are commonly used for private buildings, but also for public buildings such as hospitals, offices and hotels.

Overall, it is great to see how our door seals can make people’s daily lives better.
