Security door and door reinforcement in Paris 7

Tall doors on avenue Rapp, double doors around the Champ-de-Mars, doors of private mansions: in the 7th, a security door is almost always made to measure. We take the measurements at your home and suggest models in keeping with your entrance, with a free quote.

Double doors and extra-tall doors

Double-leaf entrances and doors over 2.10 m tall are common in the 7th. There are two solutions: reinforce the existing leaves, or replace them with a double-leaf security door made to the exact dimensions of the opening.

The Picard Diamant Tierce, A2P BP3-certified, follows the layout of a classic double door. To keep your original doors, Rmetic Copro sleeve-type reinforcement strengthens both leaves. The choice depends on the condition of the wood and the door frame, which we examine during the measuring visit.

What we check on a large door

  • The fanlight: a glazed fanlight above the door remains a weak point to be dealt with.
  • The semi-fixed leaf: it must be locked at the top and bottom.
  • The mouldings: on the landing side, the original design can be reproduced.

Large security doors: your questions

For an initial estimate, send a photo of the entrance with its approximate dimensions.

Can a security door be as tall as my current door?

Yes: made-to-measure security doors follow the dimensions of the opening, including the great heights of old buildings. We check feasibility and the right model during the measuring visit.

Does a double security door have two locks?

No: the multipoint lock is on the main leaf, and the semi-fixed leaf is held at the top and bottom. You open it with a single key, like a single door.

What can be done about the glazed fanlight above the door?

It is a weak point to mention at the measuring visit: depending on its size and what the co-ownership will accept, we suggest the most suitable solution.

How long does a made-to-measure door take?

It depends on the model and the finishes chosen: the lead time is stated on the quote, and the fitting date is agreed with you as soon as you order.

Entrances in the 7th, area by area

From the Faubourg Saint-Germain to Gros-Caillou, entrances change style; the security door adapts to each one.

Faubourg Saint-Germain

18th- and 19th-century private mansions and buildings: oak doors, often carved. Reinforcement preserves the original door; a made-to-measure security door can reproduce its design.

  • Rue de Grenelle
  • Rue de l’Université
  • Rue de Lille
  • Rue de Varenne

The avenues of the Champ-de-Mars

Belle Époque mansion blocks, tall double-leaf entrances: a double-leaf security door, or reinforcement of both leaves, keeps the flat’s character.

  • Avenue Rapp
  • Avenue de La Bourdonnais
  • Avenue de Suffren
  • Avenue Élisée-Reclus

Invalides and Breteuil

Large flats with imposing front doors, often with a service door too: we suggest dealing with both, for consistent protection of the whole flat.

  • Boulevard des Invalides
  • Avenue de Breteuil
  • Avenue de Villars
  • Rue Oudinot

Gros-Caillou

Simpler buildings around rue Cler and rue Saint-Dominique: doors of standard dimensions, for which an off-the-shelf BP1 or BP2 security door is often suitable.

  • Rue Cler
  • Avenue Bosquet
  • Rue Amélie
