Doors currently not only protect the premises from uninvited guests and the cold, they have become a full-fledged element of the interior. This is the first thing we see before entering the room. The factory for the production of doors "Sofia" has been working in this direction for a long time and is ready to offer a wide selection of doors and sliding structures of good quality and at reasonable prices.

Advantages

The Sofia brand is widely known, its products are in great demand. The company has been operating since 1993 and is constantly improving in the chosen direction. The doors of the Sofia factory meet all quality standards and have a number of advantages over competitors:

  • The widest selection of interior doors and partitions;
  • Quality fittings from Italy and Germany;
  • Decent appearance;
  • Environmentally friendly materials;
  • Original design;
  • Construction safety;
  • Acceptable price;
  • Good sound and heat insulation;
  • Possibility to choose any sliding structure;
  • There is a line of fire and moisture resistant doors.

Which is better?

The most striking competitor of Sofia is the Volkhovets company, which has also existed on the market for over 20 years. Since both factories produce doors in the same price range, when choosing a particular company, you need to study the reviews of their owners.

Since the appearance and design is, rather, a matter of taste, let's move on to practical advice on choosing interior doors based on the main qualities of the product:

  • Filling. Both companies produce doors with honeycomb filling, but only Volkhovets has a model range made of solid wood, Sofia uses only veneer.
  • Coatings. Sophia makes the top coating of doors with veneer, laminate, laminate, cortex, silk and varnish, and the color palette is so diverse that you can choose any shade and even apply a pattern from the wall. You can also make the door with a different coating on each side. So, for example, from the side of the kitchen the door is white, and from the side of the corridor it is blue. At Volkhovets, only veneer is possible and each model is produced in a specific color.
  • The lineup. Sophia's is narrower, although more varied.
  • Constructions. Both factories work not only on the production of swing doors, but also work on the creation of new forms in the organization of space and great opportunities in interior design. But some of Sophia's engineering structures have no analogues. For example, the system "Magic" or "Inside the opening".
  • Durability and wear resistance. According to this criterion, the reviews are contradictory. Someone has been using the products of one of the companies for a long time and has no complaints, while others, on the contrary, are dissatisfied with the products. Moreover, the percentage is on average the same for both companies.

Views

Doors are the final touch after major renovations in the room, but it is he who either emphasizes the ideas of the interior design, or changes them radically. The Sophia company will help you sort out this difficult issue. Thanks to a wide range of interior and exterior doors, everyone will find a suitable model for themselves.

Interior doors differ in style, design, color, properties, design, material from which they are made.

As for the entrance doors, here too the Sofia company is able to satisfy any request.

When choosing an entrance door, everyone is guided by several principles:

  1. Reliability of construction;
  2. The feeling of security that it gives;
  3. Soundproofing;
  4. External attractiveness;
  5. The ability of the system to keep out dust and drafts;
  6. Fire resistance.

Making a choice in favor of the firm "Sofia", each point of the plan will be fulfilled.

The company manufactures high quality, environmentally friendly metal doors that meet all the necessary requirements. The product consists of two steel sheets with a thickness of 2-3 mm, fixed to each other by a particularly strong frame, the space between them is filled with felt, mineral wool, pine beams, which have excellent sound-absorbing properties.

Customers who have opted for the front doors of the Sofia factory respond positively to their purchase.

Swing doors, single and double doors are considered popular in design, but in this matter the Sofia factory has moved to a new level, improving the mechanism and creating a new form.

Constructions

The company's engineers have developed unique sliding systems that save space, allow doors to open and close silently, work smoothly and easily, and look beautiful and aesthetically pleasing.

Such systems include:

  • "Compact" - during development, a swing-and-slide mechanism was used. At the moment the door is opened, the canvas folds in half and slides close to the wall;
  • "Inside the opening" - you can use 2, 3 or 4 canvases from any collection of doors, folding in a cascade one after another, opening the passage to the room;
  • "Magic" - the process of opening and closing resembles the work of wardrobe doors, the only difference is that the guides and all mechanisms are reliably hidden from view, and the canvas seems to slide through the air;
  • "Pencil case" - when opening, the door "enters" literally inside the wall and disappears there;
  • "Mystery" - the canvas slides along the wall along a barely noticeable guide above the opening;
  • "Poto" - the system resembles classic swing doors, but such a door moves not from the hinges on the cashier, but due to the unique rotary mechanism, which was developed by the factory;
  • "Coupe" - the classic system of compartment doors, but uniquely decorated with a special box and made using a special technology;
  • "Book" - when opening, the door folds in half like an accordion inside the opening and moves to the side with a slight movement.

In general, all folding-folding structures are very reliable, durable and practical, they are an excellent alternative to boring swing doors on conventional hinges. Recommended for lovers of everything unique and exotic.

Materials (edit)

The Sofia company offers a wide range of materials used to create door models. The inner filling is mainly veneer, but the outer finish is presented for every taste - silk, cortex, laminate, veneer, varnish.

Silk is a powder specially applied, mainly on a metal base, thanks to which the product becomes more durable and wear-resistant. Cortex is a kind of artificially created veneer, only more durable, it does not change its properties over time, unlike natural veneer.

The varnish has a mirrored surface, this technique will be reflected in modern high-tech design. All materials are environmentally friendly, undergo a special treatment and undergo a special application so that the product will serve as long as possible and please the eye.

The factory's product line includes models both all-glass and with glass elements. The factory offers many solutions for choosing a shade of such a model: pure transparent, with the effect of "bronze", black, gray, sand, white, gray, matte or mirror.

Colors

The color range of doors offered by the Sofia factory is practically unlimited. Natural tones will harmoniously fit into the classic design: from light brown to dark.White, bluish, matte gray and glossy colors are suitable for modern loft-style apartments. There are paintable doors.

For design solutions, doors of different colors from different sides can be pleasantly surprised: for example, in the bedroom it is calm beige, and the same door from the side of the corridor is dark brown or flashy red.

Dimensions (edit)

Door leaves, as a rule, are of standard sizes: 600x1900, 600x2000, 700x2000, 800x2000, 900x2000. The Sophia factory can produce non-standard canvases 1 meter wide and high doors up to 2.3 meters from the Original and Rainbow collections. The thickness of the leaf is 35 mm, the doors are unrebated.

These parameters should not be neglected. If the box cannot fit into the doorway, you will have to incur certain monetary costs for the demolition of part of the wall. And if the doorway is too large, you will have to purchase extras.

Popular models

At all times, classic-style models are popular. The consumer is used to it and is ready to return to the classics again and again. The Sophia factory has modernized this approach by creating a line of doors made in the neoclassical style, embodying them in the Classic and Bridge collections. There are also completely blind canvases, as well as canvases decorated with glass.

The Scandinavian style in the interior is gaining popularity, characterized by the severity of lines, purity of color (cold shades prevail) and functionality. Sophia has developed a whole series of doors dedicated to this style.

For lovers of exquisite design, the company offers to pay attention to the collection "Skyline" and "Manigliona". The first is made in a completely unique concept of ceiling doors. It looks elegant, fresh, but at the same time fundamental and conceptual.

For adherents of antique decorative finishing, the Sofia factory has created the Light collection in a vintage style.

Contrasting solutions, severity of lines, consistent color of the walls, gilded, glossy and leather elements are the main distinguishing features of the soft luxury style. Supporters of this style in the interior should turn their attention to the doors of the Sofia factory from the Crystal and Rain collections.

The company's flagship product is invisible doors. Advanced designers love this way of decorating entrance openings and experiment with "invisible" in their creative research. The door leaf is installed flush with the wall, while the system implies the absence of platbands. The space takes on a single finished shape and a complete sense of security.

How to choose?

The main qualities of a good interior door:

  • The material from which the linen and platband are made is environmentally friendly, odorless, safe for health;
  • It is best to choose products from natural veneer or solid wood;
  • The color of the entire door structure should be uniform, without streaks and stains, clean, not cloudy;
  • The coating of glossy doors should create an ideal smooth surface, there should be no bubbles, peels, scratches, unnatural deformations;
  • If the door is lacquered on top, apply some pressure with your fingernail. Cheap, low-quality material will be washed out;
  • Check all the cracks. The distance between the canvas and the slopes should not be more than 1 mm along the entire perimeter;
  • If the door is made of different elements (frames, glass, grilles), study all the joints - there should not be any gaps;
  • The hinges must be strong, correspond to the weight of the canvas, exclude sagging;
  • All mechanisms should work silently and easily;
  • Check the complete set (obligatory presence of a cloth and a box);
  • Choose good quality fittings. This will exclude breakdowns and extraneous sounds when opening and closing the door;
  • Ask the seller about the degree of sound insulation

The choice of doors for an apartment or a house is greatly simplified if you choose the products of the Sofia factory.A huge number of models, colors, textures and materials for making doors will not allow you to go to a competitor.

The use of the latest sliding systems will make it possible to save space, to beat it in your favor.

Repair

The Sofia factory gives a 3-year guarantee for its products, subject to the rules for operating the doors.

In what cases warranty repair or replacement of the product is not provided:

  1. Use of fittings that are not provided for in the door design.
  2. Poor quality work when installing the door, damage to the leaf or platband during installation.
  3. Self-repair of the door.
  4. Deliberate mechanical damage to the product or violation of storage and operation conditions.
  5. Damage during transportation.
  6. Natural wear and tear.

In the event of a warranty claim, contact the company's hotline. If the warranty period has expired, and the product deteriorates or breaks down, it is recommended to contact a workshop with appropriate qualifications.

Very often models fail with built-in narrow thick glasses. Due to its gravity, the glass can crawl down, and the door at the junction of the veneer and glass can come unstuck. This can happen quite quickly, almost immediately after the purchase. There is no need to try to fix the defect on your own, it is possible to do this only with the availability of certain tools, taking into account the technology, knowing the process.

Many firms engaged in the repair of door structures are familiar with this feature of the model and will easily repair such a canvas. And also do not wait until the glass falls out completely, so repairs will cost more.

If the hinges are loosened, and the door sags, the geometry of the "canvas-platband" is broken, the door is not fixed in a half-open form, the lock mechanism does not work well, then it is time to think about repairs. Such defects can be solved independently at home.

First of all, the foreman will be faced with the task of removing the door leaf and assessing the condition of the hinges. If necessary, if they are bent, you need to replace the hinges with new ones.

Also, the sagging of the door can occur due to screws that are too short, which simply began to pop out from the gravity. Then find stronger ones and replace them. Perhaps a pair of loops is not enough to hold the canvas, then install additional loops at the top of the structure.

If the problem is in the platbands, they must also be removed (very carefully, without damaging the coating) and reinforced with additional screws.

It is not necessary to remove the blade to fix minor scratches. Choose a paint that matches the color and carefully coat the damaged area. If the door is varnished, it is necessary to additionally apply varnish and polish.

A good solution in rooms where the appearance of the entrance structures will probably be subject to external factors, for example, in a nursery, doors for painting will be a good solution, which over time will not have to be changed or subjected to complex restoration work, but it will be enough to repaint and get a new element of the interior.

Customer Reviews

Possessing attractive properties, the doors of the Sofia factory are becoming very popular in the Russian market. All buyers claim that initially the doors look very respectable, it is clear that this is a premium product made from good materials. Attracted by a huge selection of models, good fittings that work smoothly and quietly, and the brand's publicity.

However, over time, disadvantages begin to appear. Some consumers notice defects within 5-6 months after the start of operation: in some places the film begins to peel off, the platbands fall apart. Most likely, this is due to the temperature and humidity changes during the beginning of the heating season. It is also noted that fingerprints are very noticeable on dark-colored doors, but this is more a color property than a manufacturer's flaw.

Many complaints come to the work of dealers: they refuse to make replacements, do not accept complaints and claims and completely refuse to provide any services after the act of sale, they do not know the product well, there is no information about the manufacturer, delivery times are not met. You will also have to bear in mind that the dealer does not undertake the installation work, this issue will have to be solved independently, on its own.
