PVC Coating on Steel Doors: Good or Bad?

Greetings from Kurtoğlu Çelik Kapı. Today we will talk about PVC coatings that are frequently used on steel doors. As you know, door selection is one of the most important parts of our home in terms of both security and appearance. The materials used especially in exterior doors determine the life and durability of our door. Let's examine the pros and cons of PVC coatings and for which situations they are suitable.

Pros of PVC Coating

  1. Durability: PVC coating protects our steel doors against scratches and impacts. So even if your kids are playing ball at the door, you don't have to worry!
  2. Easy Cleaning: A favorite of housewives! You wipe it with a damp cloth and it becomes clean.
  3. Economical: It does not burn your pocket. It is more affordable than wooden or metal coatings.
  4. Diversity: Whether wood look or solid color... Whatever you can think of is available. It is very easy to find a door that suits the style of your home.

Cons of PVC Coating

 

But as they say, every beauty has a flaw, and PVC coating also has some disadvantages:

  1. Humidity Problem: PVC can be a bit finicky in humid environments. If it is constantly exposed to water, it may swell over time. So, if you live in the Black Sea region, I say think twice.
  2. Temperature Sensitivity: PVC, which loves to enjoy the sun, can sometimes get too hot. In very hot regions, it may fade or expand over time.

Where Should PVC Coating Be Used?

  1. Interiors: PVC coating on the doors inside the house is a great option. It looks stylish and can withstand children's games.
  2. Dry Regions: If you live in Antalya, do not hesitate to use PVC on your exterior doors. But if you live in Istanbul, it would be useful to think a little.
  3. Areas of Intensive Use: PVC coating may be a good choice in areas that are used constantly, such as apartment entrances. Thanks to its durability, it does not cause any problems for a long time.
