Standard door size interior height. How to correctly calculate the size of interior doors with a box, standard gost


Perhaps there is little that can be changed in the repair of the interior of an apartment or a private house without causing global devastation and without spending significant effort or financial resources so that it has such a practical and aesthetic effect as if you change interior doors.

After all, no matter how beautiful the wallpaper or flooring, leaving the room, the last thing that captures our consciousness is the decor and quality of the alignment (canvas) with its frame. Therefore, such a final touch largely affects our perception of the design and comfort of the room as a whole.

Marking of door products

With the marking, which is the passport of the product, not everything is so simple. On the one hand, there are certain GOST recommendations for designations, and on the other hand, the abundance of manufacturers sometimes confuses the general standards. It is not uncommon that doors made using the same technologies and having a visual identity can be named and marked in different ways.

To begin with, consider the state standard, which no one has canceled. So the manufacture of wooden interior doors for residential and public buildings is still valid GOST 6629-88, according to which it is indicated (in order of positions in the marking):

Product type: D- complete door P- door leaf.

Canvas type: G- deaf, O- glazed, TO- glazed oscillating, At- reinforced with continuous filling.

Door height with frame, in dm.

Door width with frame, in dm. Additional letter indexes: L- left door H- with a float, P- with threshold.

Index of the state standard.

for instance: DG20-10L GOST 6629-88 or PO19-7LN GOST 6629-88.

Despite the fact that any self-respecting manufacturer of door products still adheres to state standards, along with official model designations, entrances and individual factory codes. For example, one of the Russian brands uses this identification, releasing doors 40 mm thick and 2000 mm high:

Model name.

Canvas type. DG- deaf, DOP- with cut glass DOOF- with two milled glasses.

Opening width, cm.

Veneer color.

opening direction.

For a variant of such products on the packaging, you can read: "Stella" DG 60 Oak lion.

In the end, no matter how any factory marking differs from the Gostov one, the appearance, device and operational properties of the door are more important to us, which you will need to ask the seller in detail and carefully study the company passport with its specifications and installation instructions.

What do you have to deal with or what are the doors?

Doors to an apartment or a country house are classified according to the following parameters:

single floor

Double field

One and a half

Opening method:

Door leaf filling:

glazed

Functional purpose:

For residential buildings

Combined.

The market does not let you relax in search of a suitable model, offering a huge variety of door products. However, upon closer examination, several main types of products can be distinguished:

For painting

They allow you to achieve a complete color combination with the surrounding design. Supplied primed, ready to be coated with decorative interior compounds.

In this group of products, two subspecies should be distinguished - elite and budgetary orientation. The expensive segment of doors for painting is produced for the so-called concealed installation. After installing and tinting such a product, only a protruding handle can indicate the presence of a passage in the wall.

Budget models can be found in many public institutions, they are also widely used in "economy" apartment renovations and as temporary options. Represent the textured MDF covering on a bar framework. Their main advantage is the lowest price among all door structures.

Laminated

They arrive at the distribution network ready for installation. In many ways, the device resembles the previous budget class. However, they have a stain-resistant coating laminated with a polymer film that can imitate any decorative material.

They can be filled with heat and sound insulating materials: corrugated cardboard, mineral wool, polyurethane foam or foam plastic. There are models with smooth or textured surfaces, as well as with profiled overlays made of pressed MDF.

Veneered

They are the next higher level in quality and appearance. The basis for them is the same frame MDF with fillers of different types. The thinnest sections (0.7 mm) of precious wood - veneer - are glued on top of the base, which are then varnished. The result is a complete imitation of a product made of massive material, but with less weight and an acceptable price.

From solid wood

Probably it is not necessary to praise products from completely natural material once again. In addition to all its advantages, such a door will add sophistication and comfort to any interior, if you are ready to pay its high cost. However, we should not forget that wood is very sensitive to moisture changes, therefore, for a long service life of such elite products, mandatory control of the microclimate in the room is required.

glass

They also belong to the high price segment in the market offers of door products. They help in the implementation of special design delights, and are also ideal for installation at the entrances to bathrooms, showers, saunas and other places with high humidity. They are transparent, translucent, frosted, made of colored glass and with surface milling.

metal-plastic

They serve as a good solution for exits to loggias, terraces, as well as for damp rooms, as a cheap alternative to glass doors. They have excellent sound insulation and heat retention properties. Surfaces of products can be laminated with films for any natural material

About dimensions and not only. Standard dimensions of interior doors

If we do not take into account non-standard approaches of some private customers, for whom the binding of door dimensions is based on subjective requests and desires, then most manufacturers are guided by standard openings of typical buildings of the Soviet period. And why reinvent the wheel - from the point of view of the ergonomics of door products, designed for the physiology of the human body, everything has long been invented and thought out.

At the same time, the share of individual requests (regarding the size of products) on the market is small, therefore, it is successfully replenished by the efforts of small private manufacturers, although they cost much more than standard models.

The ratio of the dimensions of doorways and doors (door frame + leaf) according to domestic SNiP. From the tables below you can find out the size of the doorway for a door with a width of, for example, 80 cm.

Width

The very first, speaking about the size of doors, both hinged and sliding, any of us means the width of the canvas, which we will use daily. Somewhere you need and want to be wider, but somewhere a narrow alignment is enough. Guest verified recommendations offer the following options:

For bathrooms - 600 mm,

For kitchens - 700 mm,

For living rooms 800 mm.

If we consider real market products, then its range (adjusted for the needs of modern consumers) is somewhat wider:

For bathrooms - 550 mm and 600 mm,

For kitchens - 700 mm,

For living rooms 800 mm and 900 mm.

Let's not undeservedly forget the double doors, because they often emphasize the special status of living rooms or passages to the terraces. Usually they are made up of the same standard canvases in equal and unequal combinations, for example: 600+600=1200 mm or 600+800=1400 mm. Also for the "kopeck piece" are used and narrowed segments along 400 mm - 400+400=800 mm or 400+800=1200 mm.

Height standards

If we start from the domestic "classics", then it has been preserved in the proposals 1900 mm and 2000 mm, although now the European standard is also often found - 2100 mm. Higher products can also be installed - 2300 mm and even to the ceiling. It is clear that such "giants" are more convenient to use in a sliding version.

The thicker the canvas, the better?

Is it always like this? What does this setting affect? Of course, massive thick sashes perfectly emphasize the interiors of living rooms, especially those made in the Empire, Baroque, Renaissance styles, but thin screens and sliding partitions will be a great addition to passages to pantries or dressing rooms.

The thicker the door, the heavier it is (in its group of design solutions and type of materials), therefore, the requirements for its hinged fittings will be higher, it may be necessary to install additional hinges, which together will lead to an increase in the cost of the entire product. Therefore, the choice of canvas according to the criterion of massiveness, as well as according to other parameters, should be based on rationality and optimality.

The typical products prevailing on the market have a thickness in the range of sizes 30-40 mm. Already in this fork of parameters, most often you can find doors 35 mm and 40 mm, as well as with intermediate values 36 mm and 38 mm.

In addition to the indicated running dimensions, sliding MDF partition doors can be very thin - from 20 mm, but the products of enterprises from solid wood are unlikely to be produced with a base cross section of less than 40 mm(can reach up to 50 or more on special orders). It should be noted that came to private interiors relatively recently, but gaining popularity, tempered glass doors, the thickness of which starts from 8 mm.

What else is good to know when choosing an interior door?

When making measurements of the opening, for the purchase of a new door, please note that it must be at least 30 mm more dimensions of the box along the top edge and in width. The installation gap will be required to adjust the product with wedges, followed by fixation with mounting foam. Of course, this value is relevant for the correct opening in relation to the vertical and horizontal.

Most boxes are made thick 35 mm. Those. overall width of the product assembled with the canvas 800 mm will 870 mm (+35 mm*2). Similarly, the height size increases, though you still need to consider whether there is or is not a threshold.

Thick sashes retain heat better and counteract noise from adjacent rooms.

When installing the box, before installing floor coverings, carefully calculate the level of the finished surface. If the door starts to rest against the floor, then it is very difficult to cut it perfectly on your own, and it will not work with every model.

In conclusion, we can say that the interior door structure, with the apparent simplicity of the device, is quite sensitive to installation errors. Therefore, either its installation and configuration will take you a lot of time, or you will have to involve highly specialized specialists.

When choosing interior doors, the main thing to pay attention to is their dimensions. Indeed, in order to perform their functions, they must clearly stand in the opening, or in other words, have suitable parameters for width, height and thickness. Uniform established standards that all manufacturers must adhere to are not defined. But there are building codes, based on which doorways are made. Therefore, the width, height and thickness of the door directly depends on these indicators for the doorway.

Canvas dimensions

Based on the dimensions of the doorway, the standard width of the finished door of domestic manufacturers can be in the range from 550 to 900 mm. European products can be 600, 700, 800 or 900 mm wide.

In apartment buildings, as a rule, the size of the opening, and hence the door, differs depending on the purpose of the room.

  • A width of 550-600 mm is usually made for the door to the toilet and bathroom.
  • An opening of 700 mm is constructed at the entrance to the kitchen.
  • Doors of 800 mm separate the living quarters.
  • A canvas with a width of 900 mm is often installed as a second door at the entrance.

The most common thickness of modern doors can be in the range of 35-40 mm. But deviations are possible both in one direction and in the other. It is influenced by the types of products and the material from which they are made. So, the thickness of sliding structures can be only 20 mm. And canvases made of wood can reach up to 50 mm.

The height of the door a few decades ago could have two values: 1.9 or 2 meters. Today, due to the use of various styles and design solutions, the parameters offered by manufacturers can reach 2.1 and even 2.3 meters. Our height standards are 2 meters, and in Europe 2.1. It should be noted that in recent years, designers and builders are increasingly relying on foreign standards.

Box dimensions

Doors can be sold with or without a finished frame and fittings. It is a U-shaped structure and is mounted around the perimeter of the opening, helping to fix the canvas with fittings. The standard dimensions of door frames for interior doors will differ from each other, and depend on the size of the door leaf. Therefore, it is better to buy a complete door with a ready-made box, fittings and platbands.

The door frame is made of bars, which may differ in parameters. Their width varies between 15 and 40 mm, but values ​​​​of 30-35 mm are considered optimal. If they are observed, the reliability of the entire structure and a long service life are ensured.

The thickness of the box must match the thickness of the wall. This value is important because it should not exceed the width of the opening into which the installation will be made. For brick walls, the standard thickness is 75 mm, and for wooden walls - 100. If the structure is narrower, then special additional elements will need to be used. And the box, which is larger than the wall, cannot be neatly and securely fixed.

When assembling the box manually, to determine the size of the vertical racks, the height of the canvas and the thickness of the horizontal bar, the mounting gap and the size of the ventilation slot or threshold are taken into account. The size of the horizontal part is determined based on the width of the door.

Opening dimensions

Knowing the standard dimensions of interior doors with a frame and fittings, you can easily determine the width of the opening during the construction of walls and the construction of partitions. To do this, double the width of the door frame of the interior door and the size of the mounting gap on both sides are added to the width of the canvas. It is usually 15 mm. For example, 800+30*2+15*2=890 mm.

Height is calculated in a similar way. For a door without a threshold, it will be 2000 + 30 + 15 + 5 = 2050, where 5 is the value of the required gap at the bottom between the leaf and the floor for air exchange. If necessary, it can be increased up to 10 mm. And if the house is supplied with liquefied gas, then the gap should be at least 15-20 mm to ensure good ventilation. If your door has a threshold, then the height of the opening is determined by adding the height of the threshold to the size of the door leaf, the width of the frame and the mounting seam.

And vice versa, knowing the standards, it is easy to calculate the width of the door leaf for existing openings. For example, for an opening of 900 mm, a door of 800 mm is needed. It is calculated as follows: 900-15*2-30*2=810 mm. And the extra 10 mm will be successfully hidden under the trim.

When calculating the dimensions, it is advisable to add the size of the gap, which is recommended to be left between the box and the door leaf. But since it is only 1-2 mm, it can be ignored in rough calculations.

Double doors

The above values ​​are applicable to single leaf constructions. Double-leaf interior doors are often installed at the entrance to the living room. Their standard width varies from 1 to 1.4 meters. At the same time, double-leaf types of doors can have different or identical sizes of individual halves. For example, a product with a width of 1400 mm may consist of two parts of 700 mm or one 600 and the second 800 mm.

Doors with hidden frame

Interior doors with a hidden frame have a number of advantages over conventional ones. But the price of such structures is much higher. The same applies to the requirements for the size of the finished opening.

The dimensions of the opening must strictly comply with the requirements of the door manufacturer. The wall must be vertically level. A deviation of only 1 mm per meter of height is allowed. Wall thickness should not exceed 80 mm. The optimal mounting gap width is 17-20 mm plus/minus 10 mm. In some models of products with a hidden box, deviations are not allowed at all. The gap under the canvas should ideally be equal to 4.

Doors to order

The variety of dimensions of interior doors with a frame and fittings offered by manufacturers is very large. But, despite this, there are often situations when none of the produced sizes fits an existing opening. In this case, you can either adjust it so that the width and height decrease or increase to the desired, or order doors of non-standard parameters.

Making doors to order is much more expensive than buying ready-made products. But such a step will allow to realize non-standard ideas.

The height of the interior door is the height of the door leaf, which is 3-5 mm less than the distance from the level of the finished floor to the level of the inner part of the upper edge of the door frame. This figure is needed to perform several different types of work and can often be confused with the height of the door block or the height of the doorway. We propose to begin with to figure out what kind of height you need and why you are going to carry out its calculations.

The value of the height of the interior door will depend on the model of the door block used in a particular apartment. Under standard conditions for European-style repairs, openings for interior doors are made such that a door is installed in the design of which the threshold is not provided. If the apartment was not renovated and the doors were installed in it during the Soviet Union, then most likely they also have a threshold, the height of which is 1-2 cm.

standard height

We need this information in order to determine the concept of height: from which to which point it will be measured. Speaking of doors, three heights are generally distinguished: the doorway, the door block or door frame, and the door leaf. Finding out what is the standard height of an interior door, most likely, we are talking about the height of the door leaf. In apartment buildings, the most commonly used standard - 2000 mm.

In the framework of standard models, manufacturers also record canvases with a height of 1900 mm. For a double-leaf door, for example to a living room, door manufacturers produce models with leaf heights up to 2800 mm. However, the most common variety will be, like the single-leaf model, a leaf height of 2000 mm. The standard width of such doors is 120 mm. 60 mm for each sash, if their dimensions are equivalent, or 40 mm for the smaller part and 80 mm for the larger sash.

In addition, there are non-standard dimensions for interior doors. In this case, they refer specifically to the height, since the width is a standard characteristic, which can have several values: 60, 70, 80 and 90 cm. Width exceeding the maximum (900 mm) or less than the minimum (600 mm) already refers to non-standard dimensions. The peculiarity of such sizes is that when ordering them, the store will make a significant markup. So, a door with a height of 2400 mm will cost 30-40% more than a standard product. Non-standard door leaf heights are heights that differ by 10 cm upwards from the standard figure of 2 m. Every 10 cm will increase the cost of the door by about 10%, and the maximum height is 2400 mm.

It is also important to consider that the height of the door is calculated from the level of the finished floor. This means that all calculations should be carried out from the level of the laid and ready-to-use floor covering. If you order a door block at the stage when the floors have not yet been laid, then consider the height of the future floor, depending on its design.

Height of the door frame and doorway

If you do not need the height of the door leaf, but the height of the door frame, then it will be equal to the height of the leaf plus 35 mm if the frame does not have a threshold. In the event that the door frame has a threshold, its height will be 70 mm more than the height of the leaf. Consider also the fact that manufacturers produce lightweight door blocks with a frame thickness of 25 mm. In this case, its height without a threshold will be 25 mm higher than the door height, and with a threshold - by 50 mm.

Table of box sizes for different canvases:

As for the height of the doorway, it directly depends on the height of the block or door frame. For models without a threshold with a standard door leaf height, the opening height will be 206-210 cm. In general, a height of 206 cm will be enough, since it is calculated from the leaf height plus 3.5 cm for the thickness of the box on top and plus 2.5 cm for the foam layer, required when installing the unit. Openings with a height of 210 cm are suitable for boxes with or without a threshold. A door block without a threshold can also be installed in a larger opening, since the extra space can be filled with foam - it will still be covered by platbands.

Individual height selection

Summing up, let's say that when dealing with standard interior doors, you will most likely come across a model with a door leaf height of 2 meters or 2000 mm. Those who want to know the dimensions of the door for arranging the doorway need to know the dimensions of the box - its standard height is 2035 mm for a door leaf 2000 mm high. For models with a threshold, this value will be 2070 mm. If you are at the stage of choosing the door that suits you, then first find out the height of the opening in your apartment. If desired, you can order a door with a height of 1900 to 2400 mm.

Everyone knows about the need for high-quality interior doors in an apartment - they delimit space, give a person the opportunity to be alone, create a barrier to smells, sounds and cold. Most owners prefer to choose interior doors based on the design of the rooms, but other parameters should be taken into account.

Door options

The stores present models of domestic and European manufacturers, depending on the place of manufacture, the standard door width will differ. Russian companies produce doors with a width of 55 to 90 cm, and in Europe standard sizes of 60 are popular; 70; 80; 90 cm

The height of the doors will also depend on the place of production: the European standard is 2100 mm, the Russian one is 2000 mm, earlier this value was even less - 1900 mm. Among non-standard doors there are models up to 2300 mm in height.

The width of interior doors is chosen based on the parameters of the doorway, and it depends on the purpose of the room

  • Narrow doors with a width of 55 to 60 mm lead to the toilet and bathroom.
  • Kitchen openings are approximately 700 mm wide.
  • Interior doors - the standard size is approximately 800 mm.
  • Entrance doors reach a width of 900 mm.

The thickness of the door will depend on the material, for example, sliding models are thin - 20 mm, and wooden ones reach a thickness of 50 mm.

Dimensions according to GOST

Standard sizes are suitable for most apartments, but the parameters of the openings differ slightly. To make the perfect door, the owners turn to the carpentry workshop, where the door leaf will be made to order.

According to GOST, standard door leafs are made:

  • With a door height of 1900 mm, its width will be 500–600 mm.
  • Doors, 2000 mm high, have a width of 600; 700; 800; 900 mm.

Standard sizes are running, suitable for all typical apartments, so manufacturers produce a wide range of such doors.

Double door dimensions

People often put double doors in the living room. Often doors are made of glass or decorated with various decorative elements. The height in a standard apartment is 2000 mm, and the width varies from 1280 to 1600 cm. If you divide this parameter in two, you get the width of each sash - from 640 to 800 mm.

Box dimensions

Before installing the door, it is necessary to place a door frame in the opening to securely fix the leaf and ensure the correct operation of the door. Almost always, a box for installing a door is sold complete with a door leaf; for ease of installation, manufacturers complete the doors with the necessary fittings: awnings, locks, trim, locks, sometimes you can find fasteners in the kit. A ready-made installation kit completely eliminates dimensional discrepancies and guarantees ease of installation, so it is recommended to purchase it.

The box for fixing the door leaf is made of a wooden beam of standard width - from 30 to 35 mm, there are models of non-standard size boxes with a beam - from 15 to 40 mm thick. The standard size always guarantees the correct fixation and durability of the door. Non-standard parameters are chosen if they want to increase the width of the door leaf, or if the opening differs slightly from the standard dimensions.

The thickness of the box will be equal to the thickness of the walls or partitions in the house. Structures with a thickness of 75 mm are mounted in brick walls, up to 100 mm in wooden ones. If the selected door and its frame are narrow, then the builders use additional elements to adjust the size of the opening to the selected door.

Opening dimensions

In most houses, the size of the doorways is standard and designed for the installation of the same standard doors. The height will be from 1940 to 2050 mm. The width depends on the purpose of the room into which the doorway leads, narrow doors, 630 mm wide to the toilet and bath, and wide - 1600 mm - to the living room.

It is important to correctly measure using the simplest technology:

  • First, the old door is completely dismantled, along with the cow.
  • The opening is cleaned to remove the putty, the wall structure is opened.
  • The parameters are measured.

Measurements of width and thickness are made in three places: in the upper part, near the floor and in the middle. For best accuracy, it is recommended that you measure with a spirit level, as this will allow you to measure parallel to the ground.

If necessary, urgently measure the doorway, only the platbands are dismantled and they see an open wall suitable for measurements.

Doors with hidden frame

A very interesting solution is doors with a hidden frame. This option has advantages over doors with platbands:

  • The hidden box makes the door unobtrusive to people.
  • Due to the absence of platbands, several centimeters of precious space are saved or it becomes possible to install the door in an inconvenient place.
  • The absence of a visible box increases the light opening.
  • When decorating two rooms in a style that is different from each other, such a door, like a chameleon, adapts to the different interiors of different rooms.
  • The size range of hidden doors provides the owners with a wide selection of non-standard products, thanks to which every opening in the house is easily designed.

But this design has a number of negative qualities:

  • The door will be hidden from view only on one side, on the other hand, the door leaf will be recessed into the wall.
  • It is necessary to provide for the installation of a concealed door in the early stages of construction.
  • Installation will be expensive, because it will require the intervention of qualified specialists.

Before buying a door, the owners must accurately measure all the openings in the house, since you cannot go to the store and buy a standard version - they differ too much from each other. The variety of models will allow you to choose the perfect model for each home.

When making repairs, one should not forget about changing the entrance and interior doors if they have already served their time or have lost their presentable appearance. An important criterion affecting the operational characteristics of doors are correctly selected measurements of door frames. The more accurately the dimensions are set, the longer the door will last, whether it is an entrance or interior door. There are established standard sizes, which should also be taken into account when repairing.

Entrance door dimensions

The dimensions of the entrance doors must be removed correctly, first you need to figure out what elements it consists of:

  • Canvas. This is a solid or multi-part element that clutters up the doorway. It is equipped with special fittings for easy opening and installation.
  • Box The frame in which the canvas is enclosed and fixed on it. It serves as a transmission link between the box and the wall opening. , consists of three crossbars and a threshold, sometimes the latter is not used.
  • Platbands. They serve as decorative elements of the opening, make the appearance of installed doors complete.
  • Extras. They are installed between the platbands and the box, they compensate for the gap that can occur between the wall and the thickness of the box.

Before you buy an entrance, you need not only to measure the dimensions of the opening, but also to establish, using calculations, the exact dimensions of the purchased product.

Proper measurement

You need to measure the width, depth and height. Check their compliance with the standard sizes adopted by GOST.

Width

It is necessary to establish the distance of the narrowest part of the doorway, measuring it from one wall to the second. Usually the wall tapers at the place where the door is located, but if it is the same throughout the opening, then the size can be measured anywhere.

If the old door has not yet been dismantled, but you already need to order a new one, then the distance is measured from the middle of the platbands.

opening height

To measure the height of the opening, you need to find the lowest point of the opening and measure the distance from it to its upper part. At the same time, it should be measured at the place of narrowing, if this is not observed, then measurements can be taken along the entire perimeter of the opening.

In the presence of an old copy, they simply measure its canvas, or the distance from the middle part of the upper casing to the floor.

The standard door height is 200 cm, but sometimes a larger size is allowed. Some manufacturers may produce products with sizes ranging from 2.1 to 2.3 m.

After installing the door leaf, you may need.

opening depth

Its measurement must be carried out at three points located above, below and in the middle. This is necessary to set the widest place.

Read also about how to install interior doors with your own hands,.

If there is still an old door in the opening, then it is necessary to measure the parameters of the box and the distance that the wall protrudes from it. Table:

Standard sizes are made within 60, 70 and 80 mm.

Opening calculation analogue

When choosing a box, you need to take into account the gaps: on the upper side and in width, it should exceed the resulting size by 3 mm, its lower part is increased by 10 mm.

When installing the box, you should take into account the gaps along the perimeter of the box between it and the wall, they are 1-1.5 mm, so the entrance opening is assumed to be 2 mm large.

The height of the door is determined based on the fact that its standard size is 200 cm, you need to add the size of the upper beam of the box to it, which is 25 mm and the gaps: the upper one is 3 mm, and the lower one is 10 mm.

You can also learn about the types of locks for aluminum doors.

For balcony openings depend on the type of building. For small apartments, its width is 68 cm. You can make the width smaller, but it must be at least 61 cm, otherwise it will be difficult to go to the balcony.

Standard sizes of interior door frames

Their elements are made of boards or pine timber, and on top it is decorated with veneer of trees of more valuable species.

Box thickness
