| What is an STC rating? |
STC stands for "sound transmission class". It represents a method of measuring
sound transmission loss through a barrier ie. a door or a wall. The higher the STC
rating the better the sound deadening property of the door. Ambico provides 1 3/4"
thick doors from STC 33 to STC 50. Let us help you select an acoustic product
that will meet your project requirements.

| Are acoustic doors supplied with seals and door hardware? |
Perimeter seals, bottom seals and thresholds are always supplied, as they are
integral to the sound deadening properties of the door/frame unit. Heavy weight
butt hinges and latching devices are readily available from local hardware
distributors as well as from Ambico.
|
| Can acoustic doors be provided with glass lites? |
Ambico has tested glazed acoustic doors that have achieved STC 50. Glazing
material must be factory pre-installed.
|
| What type of wood finishing is available? |
The entire range of wood veneers are available. Doors are supplied with
matching edges. As well, doors can be provided with a pre-finished stain or clear
coat per project specifications.
