Solid wood is the traditional, robust, restorable, and durable option. Its drawback is seasonal movement due to humidity: in humid summers, it absorbs water and swells; in dry winters, it contracts. This can cause some doors to rub against the frame in July-August and show noticeable gaps in January-February. For homes occupied all year round in areas with stable humidity, this is not an issue. For holiday homes with long periods of closure or intermittent heating, the movement is more noticeable. Yes, for large ones, on upper floors, or if mobility is difficult. The investment pays off in comfort within one season. A highly requested improvement today is to combine a motorised blind with a roller mosquito net integrated into the same cassette. This allows both the blind and the mosquito net to operate independently, both hidden when not in use. It is the standard solution in modern new builds. For renovations of existing homes, it requires replacing the entire cassette with a new, deeper one that accommodates both systems.

Official manufacturer's warranty 5-10 years depending on brand and model. Plus 30 days on labour. For isolated villas, single-family homes in affected areas, or owners with previous experience of attempted burglary, we recommend high-security cylinders such as Cisa Astral S, Mul-T-Lock MT5+, Tesa T80 Plus, or Mottura Champions. These increase the grade to EN1303 grade 6, adding all anti-bumping, anti-picking, anti-drilling, and anti-extraction features. They come with a manufacturer's burglary insurance guarantee. This guarantee is relevant. If, despite everything, they gain entry and you can prove the cylinder was tampered with, the manufacturer covers part of the damage. Changing handles is the most cost-effective aesthetic improvement. A new handle of medium quality (chrome or lacquered steel) changes the perception of the door and lasts 20-30 years without problems. For bathrooms and bedrooms, handles with a simple internal lock. For exterior doors leading to a patio or terrace, we recommend a quality cylinder lock if there is a risk of intrusion.
