So Lemmeno if I got this right. 1 make sure your door closes tightly. 2 acoustic caulk around your door frame. 3 weather strip. 4 door sweep. 5 get solid core door. 6 hang moving blanket on door with Velcro make sure no gap. 7 hang thermal door panel. 8 custom sound proof door panel. Or blackout curtains. 9 door seal kit. 10 sound proof hinges. 11 solid wood or fiberglass door. 12 door muffler/silencer. 13 acoustic foam panels don’t work well. 13 storm door. Alright that’s all good and well. Should cover most people. Good suggestions but what about the thumbnail?? The thumbnail has someone spraying expanding foam in what appears to be a hallow core door. Give us the goods on that technique. Good idea? Bad idea? Works well or better than nothing. Thanks for your assistance🙌

I just took done my hollow door pulled off the paneling from one side, rebuilt the frame out of 2x6's which I cut down width and thickness and I am adding HDF paneling to the inside. If I had it to do over again, I would have dado'd the 2x6's in the middle and laminated the HDF paneling to get the desired thickness. I haven't finished it yet, but I did get the door back up with the new framing and one 1/8 in HDF panel glue to the inside, and I can already tell the difference. I am going to have 1/2 inch of HDF on the inside of the door.

I wish I was a dictator and order all apartment buildings be up to code for sounds

😅 y do other people have to exist, doesnt make sense.

Thanks this was way better than anyone else's video.😊❤

What a fantastic guide! Thanks, a bunch!

TThanks for your video and information. I learned a lot from you and your tips have helped.

Big thanks for these amazing advices.

Thank you so much! I'm doing sound treatment in a room and i have to soundproof the door that connects the room the outside, very helpful!

Thank you, this was very informative

thank you!

Oh thank you!

Sounds good :)

I made a rubber gasket to put behind the bedroom door knob. It was tricky, but maybe it reduced sound transmission a tiny bit. Perhaps this is a potential business product idea?

Thanks

I can't find the link for the Door panels in your description. Could you let me know what one you're recommending? Have a very custom door in an artist space we need to soundrproof and would appreciate the help.

Currently renting and have a sliding glass door, with an inch or so space between wall and door when closed. do you have any suggestions for soundproofing?

Your videos are awesome for unlucky people like me who live in apartments! May I ask if it's possible to buy some rockwool or a similar material and create a DIY soundproofing layer and glue it/nail it to the existing door using a cheap custom frame or something?

3:00 - Would it be possible to show how to adjust the small door casing? Can only find videos on how to adjust the gaps on the side with the frame. I think I can reposition the door hinges slightly to add space but that doesn’t seem correct. Adjusting the casing seems to be a better option

There are some really good tips here, and I'll be putting some to good use. I do find it interesting that the room you're recording in has a lot of echo...

how about a tutorial for DIY sound proof doors? like a sandwich of drywall and mass loaded vinyl

How would I treat an office double door? I’m struggling to plug the middle portion

I don’t see a link for the soundproof door panel where can I buy one ? Thanks

Good advice always from this channel, no complaints, but the hard truth as most people know is, you need distance and mass between you and the sound source (or your neighbours and your speakers etc if YOU are the source). Also those little cracks do let a disproportionate amount of sound through. Also, anything that goes right THROUGH the adjoining wall, is an absolute almost-impossibility to counteract. We had one house, the floor joists from next door, met our floor joists, in a double-sized hole in the party (joining) wall. You bang that joist, they get it transmitted under their floor, it’s pretty bad. In contrast, I had another house I lived in, built in the 19th century (circa 1850 or something?) and it was made out of big blocks of stone. The party/joining wall, was 3 feet thick - the house beside us was one storey high only, and for that small adjoining wall, there was THEIR solid stone wall, then OURS, butt up against each other! Nothing got through. Sure, noise leaked out windows etc, but nothing got through the wall there. You could hit it with a sledgehammer, it would sound like a ticking watch in the other side. Lastly…Have you seen the Ukrainian properties? Terrible to say this, but they all seem to be THREE layers deep of grey brick. I hate to think how bog-standard two-layer cavity walls would stand up to missile strikes, if the Ukrainian stuff is being broken through. Three-layers deep, of brick, is a decent soundproofing level. If only houses or apartments with party walls had this as a minimum standard, it’s be so much better. I knew one guy, he bought two houses, turned them into one, and where there was a party wall to the other houses not owned by him, he literally built another interior wall of stone. Normally this would use too much space, but these houses were cheap and small, so there you go.

where did you source that soundproof door panel?

Can you do a video on how to soundproof a pocket door?

How do u soundproof the ceiling and wall from low frequency sound / vibrations in a flat (owner) ? - best way. ty

I don't know why I feel the need to even ask this but are you French Canadian? You're English is obviously perfect but I detect a VERY slight accent. Am I right? lol

What you are calling "Small casing" is technically called "Door Stop"

here's a nasty comment to make your day

😅😅😅😅

Please remember solid core doors are NOT solid!

Door silencer, muffler, problem solved really? solved by it not clicking into the housing, so it will just open, and make more noise.

Wondering what you think of this.. I have a bedroom studio with a subwoofer, the room is treated with 2in acoustic foam in the places that reflect, front wall, back wall and the sides.. one of the sides is the door itself, it has 6X 12in foam pads.. the room itself sounds excellent. What I am trying to do is block noise from getting out and bothering the family.. I was thinking, maybe I could put Dynomat on the other side of the door, cover it completely.. Dynomat is key in car systems, stops all the raddling and noise getting out.. could it work with a door too?
