Door installation, as with window installation, is demanding and requires using products that have high elasticity and excellent sound- and thermal-insulation values. Below are detailed steps to take and products to use during door installation.

Covering the door sill with plasterboard

Gluing and sealing door thresholds
The easiest way to fix construction boards to a door sill is to use one of Penosil’s adhesive foams. The adhesive foam saves time and improves the door’s sound- and thermal insulation.
SpeedFix Construction 878 Foam adhesive with EasyGun applicator for narrow joints
To seal the angle between the plasterboard and door frame, use a paintable and moveable product.
Premium Acrylic Sealant 636 Paintable acrylic sealant
To minimize heat loss and improve sound insulation, the joints between the door frame and wall must be sealed with a construction foam. Before applying the PU foam, the door must be mechanically fixed and supported according to the door manufacturer’s instructions. For fire-rated doors, a fire-resistant PU foam should be used.

Premium Window & Door Gun Foam 191 Installation foam for winter use
For a perfect result, it is recommended to glue the door trims instead of using the traditional fastening by nails.
Premium SpeedFix High Tack 707 Fast and strong hybrid adhesive
Door thresholds, like floors, need to be fixed down with products that accommodate surface fluctuations. Therefore, door thresholds need to be glued with adhesives that guarantee a permanently elastic and durable bond.
