Standard entrance doors with a frame. Standard sizes of entrance doors: external and internal

The security of our home is influenced by many different factors. Metal doors protect us from attacks by intruders. In order to choose a product and not make a mistake with the purchase, you need to get acquainted in advance with the existing dimensions of such a design. The correct choice of door size with a suitable frame will make it more functional and reliable.

Varieties

Metal doors differ from others in their large width. Standard values ​​are used in most different options steel doors. Today, doors are made from several basic materials:

• wood;
• become.

The sizes of Chinese products have some differences with domestic designs. This is due to differences in the standards of China and Russia.

However, the material of the canvases remains the same. Doors must be selected taking into account all the nuances. It is especially necessary to pay attention to the design of the product.

Table for calculating door size according to the size of the opening

Single leaf partition

Standard design with one blade fixed in a frame. The width of such a door should not exceed 110 cm. To make the product look more beautiful, make original design and change the dimensional parameters of the opening, of course, without going beyond the standard.

Bivalve

This door is usually installed in a private cottage. The height of the product is made standard. The size of the opening, especially its width, approximately doubles. It looks very nice, but this requires free space. An alternative could be one-and-a-half systems. The width of the canvas may vary. One side remains completely motionless, it acts as a beautiful insert.

Double-leaf partition with standard size door leaves

Ceiling with transom

Height changes door frame. Moreover, in such metal doors the dimensions of the door leaves remain standard. The upper part of the product is fastened as a separate decorative part.

Choosing an entrance door

The size of the opening for the entrance metal sheet has several standards. Therefore, the choice of such a partition is made individually for each opening.

For old houses built in the twentieth century, choosing doors that exactly fit the existing openings is quite simple. Modern multi-story houses and personal cottages are built using various technological approaches.

It can be very difficult to correctly determine the size of such an entrance partition along with the box. In this case, the location of the installed system comes first.

It becomes simply impossible to adhere to standard dimensions in such conditions. Installation of the input model in private cottage much easier to produce. It becomes possible to change the size of the door opening, which will not affect other floors.

Pressure on the walls high-rise buildings a lot more. It is very dangerous to disturb the solidity of the structure. This can lead to the destruction of the entire house.

Filling the excess part of the opening with bricks

Standard sizes

Standardized dimensions have been developed for any type of structure.

1. Height. The opening should be 2070-2370 mm in height. The exact value of this parameter depends on the existing ceiling level, as well as the size of the canvas.
2. Width. For a normal entrance door, the opening width is more than 910 mm. In single-leaf structures, the standard parameter is a width of 1010 mm. One-and-a-half products can have an opening with a width of 1310-1550 mm. In double-floor structures, the width can vary between 1910-1950 mm.
3. Thickness. There is no strict regulation for this parameter, but it usually exceeds 20 mm. The size depends on the type of product itself. However, the door must be such that it reliably protects the owners of the house. IN metal structures It is very important to choose the strongest possible sheet of metal.

Standards table

Non-standard models

Today, houses are built taking into account innovative design solutions. Standardized sizes for door designs no longer suitable. Dimensions metal sheets can have completely different meanings.

To avoid violation of design standards, the dimensions of the openings are compared with standard values. However, builders do not adhere to specific numbers.

Home decoration is done using original designs. Dimensions entrance systems determined on the spot.

The width of the entrance web can be in the range of 900-2000 mm, and the height - 2000-2400 mm. Changes in size are often typical only for houses where the opening is much larger than the standard values.

Selecting the canvas along with the box

The iron frame should fit easily into the doorway. It is very important that small gaps remain. They will allow you to set the structure strictly vertically and horizontally in level.

To avoid errors, measurements should be taken in a well-cleaned opening.

The ideal option is to purchase together with the box. If you buy the box separately, you can choose the appropriate one for it door leaf.

In order for movement to be free, there must be a small gap between the canvas and the box. Its size usually does not exceed 2 mm. When choosing, be sure to take into account the threshold level. It is installed at the entrance to the room.

Before purchasing a door, you must carefully measure the opening

Selecting the appropriate model

It is necessary to take into account the parameters of the walls, as sometimes they do not correspond to the dimensions of the door frame.

To install the canvas, the size of the opening is adjusted using slopes, and the position of the platbands is adjusted. This allows us to ensure high level insulate heat and noise, avoid the formation of drafts. If the opening parameters do not correspond to the size of the entrance door, the door may not open completely. The protruding end will interfere with the opening of the canvas.

Some nuances

When choosing an entrance door together with a frame, you need to ensure that its dimensions are smaller than the opening. You can choose the right model if you take the width of the canvas and then increase this size by 70 mm.

Domestic manufacturers produce canvas with a width of 60 cm or more. It can reach 90 cm. In most cases, a canvas is installed whose width is 80 cm. The width of the opening is 87 cm and the height is 210 cm.

Non-standard dimensions

Some houses are built according to foreign projects. Magnitude doorways in such houses differs from standard ones.

In case of non-compliance building regulations It is also possible that the dimensions of the box do not match the entrance panel. To correct errors, the dimensions of the opening are corrected or a new product is manufactured.

When ordering a new partition, you can make the model stronger and more fire resistant. The size of the canvas and the box is selected taking into account all the nuances of the opening. If you take the correct measurements, you can ensure the full functionality of the product and its durability.

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

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

Marking of door products

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

First, let's look at the state standard, which has not been repealed. So on making wooden internal doors still valid for residential and public buildings GOST 6629-88, according to which it is indicated (in order of positions in the marking):

Product type: D- door assembly, P- door leaf.

Fabric type: G- deaf, ABOUT- glazed, TO- glazed swinging, U- reinforced with continuous filling.

Height of the door with frame, in dm.

Width of door with frame, in dm. Additional letter indices: L - left door, N- with floating, P- with a threshold.

State standard index.

For example: 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 such identification, producing doors 40 mm thick and 2000 mm high:

Model name.

Type of canvas. DG- deaf, DOF- with milled glass, DOOF- with two milled glasses.

Opening width, cm.

Veneer color.

Opening direction.

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

Ultimately, no matter how different any factory marking is from the Gost marking, you and I are more interested in the appearance, structure and operational properties doors, about which you will need to ask the seller in detail and carefully study the company passport attached to each product with its characteristics and installation instructions.

What do you have to deal with or what types of doors are there?

Doors to the apartment or Vacation home classified according to the following parameters:

Location in the building:

Input (external)

Interior (internal)

Number of canvases:

Single-sex

Double-field

One and a half

Combined.

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

For painting

Allows you to achieve complete color combination with the surrounding design. Supplied primed, completely ready to be coated with decorative interior compositions.

In this group of products, two subtypes should be distinguished - elite and budget oriented. The expensive segment of doors for painting is produced for the so-called hidden 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. They are textured MDF coating on a timber frame. Their main advantage is the most low price among all door designs.

Laminated

They are delivered to the retail chain ready for installation. In many ways the structure is similar to the previous one budget class. However, they have a stain-resistant coating laminated with a polymer film that can imitate any decorative material.

Can be filled with heat and soundproofing materials: corrugated cardboard, mineral wool, polyurethane foam or polystyrene foam. 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 different types of fillers. The thinnest sections (0.7 mm) of valuable wood - veneer - are glued onto the base, which are then varnished. The result is a complete imitation of a product made from massive material, but with less weight and an affordable price.

Made from solid wood

You probably shouldn’t once again praise products from completely natural material. In addition to all its advantages, such a door will add sophistication and comfort to any interior, if you are willing to pay its high cost. However, one should not forget that wood is very sensitive to changes in humidity, therefore, for the long service of such elite products, mandatory control of the indoor microclimate is required.

Glass

They also belong to the high price segment of the market offerings 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 come in transparent, translucent, matte, colored glass and with surface milling.

Metal-plastic

Serve good decision for exits to loggias, terraces, as well as for damp rooms, as a cheap alternative glass doors. They have excellent sound insulation and heat retention qualities. The surfaces of products can be laminated with films to suit any natural material

About dimensions and more. Standard sizes of interior doors

If we do not take into account the 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 from 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 product sizes) on the market is small, and therefore is successfully filled by the efforts of small private manufacturers, although they are much more expensive than standard models.

The ratio of the sizes 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.

Door dimensions, mm	Opening dimensions, mm
Width height	Width	Height
600*2000	680-710	2050-2070
700*2000	780-810	2050-2070
800*2000	880-910	2050-2070
900x2000	980-1010	2050-2070
600*1900	680-710	1950-1970
550*1900	630-660	1950-1970
600+600*2000	1280-1310	2050-2070

The ratio defined by the DIN standard:

Door dimensions, mm	Opening dimensions, mm
Width height	Width	Height
600x2000	700-740	2060-2080
700*2000	800-840	2060-2080
800x2000	900-940	2060-2080
900x2000	1000-1040	2060-2080
600+600*2000	1340-1400	2060-2080

Width

First of all, when talking about the size of doors, both swing and sliding, any of us means the width of the door that we will use every day. In some places you need and want a wider one, but in others a narrow alignment is enough. Gostov's proven recommendations offer the following parameters:

For bathrooms - 600 mm,

For kitchens - 700 mm,

For living rooms - 800 mm.

If we consider real market products, then their range (adjusted to 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 us not undeservedly forget double doors, because they are the ones who often emphasize the special status of living rooms or passages to terraces. They are usually made up of the same standard fabrics in equal and unequal combinations, for example: 600+600=1200 mm or 600+800=1400 mm. Also for the “kopeck piece”, narrowed segments are used 400 mm - 400+400=800 mm or 400+800=1200 mm.

Height standards

If we start from the domestic “classics”, then they have 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 parameter affect? Of course, massive thick doors perfectly highlight the interiors of living rooms, especially those made in the Empire, Baroque, and Renaissance styles, but thin screens and sliding partitions will be an excellent addition to passages to pantries or dressing rooms.

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

Typical products prevailing on the market have thicknesses in a range of sizes 30-40 mm. Already in this fork of parameters, you can most often 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 products from solid wood enterprises are unlikely to be produced with a base cross-section less than 40 mm(can reach up to 50 or more on special orders). It should be noted that doors made of tempered glass, whose thickness starts from 8 mm, have come to private interiors relatively recently, but are gaining popularity.

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

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

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

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

Installing the box, before installation floor coverings, carefully calculate the level of the finishing surface. If the door starts to rest on the floor, then it is very difficult to trim it perfectly on your own, and this cannot be done with every model.

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

In order for the installation of a new door to go quickly, and the installation gap with slopes to be beautifully sealed, it is important to choose the right size of the entrance metal doors to the apartment. Since building codes have varied from time to time, openings in high-rise buildings can have different heights and widths, so there are several common design standards that fit most apartments, where the gap between the frame and the wall can be closed with casing on the outside and foam on the inside. For greater accuracy in determining whether a given opening is standard, it is better to resort to free measurement services.

How to correctly calculate door size

To determine the dimensions of the future door that you will have to look for, it is important to measure the opening in right place. To do this you need:

1. Use a tape measure with a reach of at least 2500 mm.
2. It would be a mistake to apply measuring instrument in the corner between the frame and the slope, since the layer of plaster hides the real location of the wall. In this case, it is better to beat off the plaster until brickwork or concrete slab, and this must be done on both walls of the opening.
3. If the door has wooden frame, then it should be dismantled to see the edge of the load-bearing support.
4. Place the tip of the tape measure against the side wall and bring it to the opposite wall. Write down the received data on paper or on your phone.
5. Place the end of the device against the concrete lintel above the passage and lower the canvas with the scale to the floor. Keep these numbers in your records.
6. Measure the thickness of the wall along its outer edges.

Common sizes of door standards

One of the three indicators is the width of the opening. The standard width of the entrance door to an apartment is 860 or 960 mm. You need to see which indicator the existing opening is closer to, and there should be at least 20 mm, or even more, between the box and the wall to adjust the position of the new product during the installation process.

The standard door height is 2050 mm, where it is also important to provide space for the threshold and installation gap. The thickness of the wall is necessary to determine the cross-section of the box, which can be 65-120 mm wide, and the location of the fastening points - in the box or on external lugs.

Dimensions entrance doors for an apartment with a box they can be 860x2050 or 960x2050 mm. This implies the extreme points on the box in width and height. If the structure has a platband, then it is not included in these values ​​and is placed only on the outside against the wall. The box has its own specific thickness, which reduces inner dimensions passage that the owners will use. For example, with a standard of 860x2050 mm, the net width of the passage will be 800 mm, and with 960x2050 mm, this figure will be 900 mm.

Dimensions of openings for entrance doors

When taking the dimensions of the opening, you may be very surprised to see that they exceed the dimensions of standard doors by 50-110 mm. This indicator can be both in width and height. For example, the standard size of the entrance door to an apartment is 860x2050 mm or 960x2050 mm, and the opening may be 950x2100 or 1050x2110 mm. This error is due to different construction standards. Here are other common opening sizes for standard doors:

• 900x2100 mm;
• 920x2090 mm;
• 1000x2080 mm;
• 1100x2100 mm.

The mounting gap range is 20-110 mm, which is not difficult for quality installation. With values ​​of 20-70 mm, the gap is covered from the outside with a platband. Strong fastening is carried out on anchors 120-130 mm long. From the inside, the gap is completely foamed and plastered.

If the opening is too large, with a total gap of 110 mm, then you can use wooden beam to reduce it. The segment is screwed with anchors to the wall both from the side and from the top, which reduces the distance between the product and the load-bearing partition. The block is mounted slightly recessed so that the top can be covered with plaster. The box is attached on one side to wooden element, but this does not reduce the anti-vandal properties of the opening.

There is no size of entrance door opening to an apartment according to GOST. In buildings of different times, a wide variety of indicators can be found. In order not to make a mistake when choosing the size of the door you are purchasing, it is better to call a free measurer who knows which standard dimensions will be more suitable for high-quality installation in specific conditions.

The company "Reliable Doors" has big choice doors of standard sizes 860x2050 mm and 960x2050 mm, which are suitable for most apartments. To call a surveyor, you must use the feedback form.

When choosing an entrance door, you need to correctly measure the doorway One of essential elements There is a door in the interior of the apartment. It is the center of the room, and therefore should look neat and be combined with the rest of the decoration of the room. In order for the door leaf to fit exactly into the doorway and at the same time open and close easily, it is necessary to correctly determine its dimensions. In typical Khrushchev-type buildings, all openings have the same dimensions, but in new buildings the parameters of the door space can be very different. What door sizes are there - read on.

How does the size of the front door depend on its type?

Doors can have the most different sizes. Of course, if you are the owner of a non-standard building, then standard door sizes are not relevant for you. Typically, for such buildings, entrance panels are made to order.

The sizes of entrance doors, as a rule, depend on their type

However, even owners of buildings whose doorways fit into the standards may find it difficult to decide on the size entrance structure. The point is that there are different types external entrance doors, and all of them are characterized by their own parameters.

What types of doors are there:

1. Single-leaf doors are one of the most common options that can be installed in an apartment or a private house. This model consists of a leaf with a door frame. The dimensions of such options may vary depending on the manufacturer, but the width of a single-leaf door should not exceed 110 cm.
2. Double doors consist of one door frame and two leaves. This option is often used in public buildings, but is also acceptable for private homes. This type of door involves increasing the width of doorways, but increasing the height this design does not affect.
3. One-and-a-half doors have the same height as single-leaf doors, but are wider. A semi-truck often has a width of 1200-1400 mm.
4. The door design with a transom is distinguished by the presence of a transparent insert. This option is rarely used for the entrance pair of an apartment or residential building. However, this option is very popular in shopping centers and other public buildings.

These entrance door options differ in size. Before choosing one, you must make sure that the design will fit into the size and design of your home. In some cases, you will be able to increase the doorway, but before such work you must obtain permission from housing authorities.

Standard door sizes

If your door block designed not according to generally accepted standards, but according to your personal sketches, then the door for it will have to be made to order. However, standard boxes with standard sizes are more convenient, since you can purchase a ready-made door structure for them.

There are two systems for measuring doors: metric and English. The first is used everywhere; according to it, the dimensions of the structure are measured in centimeters. The English system is used very rarely and only for exclusive doors, V in this case door block is measured in feet.

Of course, a custom-made door looks original and stylish, however, designs whose dimensions are regulated by GOST have their advantages. Therefore, when drafting a future doorway, think carefully about which option is closer to you.

Quite popular and in demand today are entrance doors with standard sizes.

Advantages of using doors with standard sizes:

1. You can buy any door you like in the store. In the case of a custom plan, you will have to wait until your order is fulfilled.
2. The door standard is selected in such a way that it is easy for a person of any size to enter the house.
3. Usually, ready-made doors are paired with a frame. They also include all the necessary accessories.
4. Standard door designs will cost you much less than products made personally for you.
5. If one of the elements of a typical entrance structure breaks down, you can easily and quickly find the part you need. If a breakdown occurs on a custom-made door, the broken part will have to be ordered.

Each type of building has its own door size standard. Also, the data may vary depending on what material the door leaf and frame are made of.

Standard door block sizes:

1. Door heights for buildings built in different time, will be different. So in typical new buildings, the door structure varies from 205 to 210 cm. In Khrushchev, the vertical size of the door is 250 meters, and in older buildings the door height can reach 260 cm.
2. The width of door structures also has different parameters. The standard for new buildings is a door with a horizontal dimension of 74-76 cm. In brick buildings, a width of 88-92 cm is considered the norm. The same figure in old buildings with high doors varies from 82 to 96 cm. The typical size for nine-story buildings is 128 cm.
3. There are no clear standards for door thickness. However, according to GOST, the door leaf should not be thinner than 2 mm.

The weight of door structures is not regulated by GOST. This value depends on many factors, ranging from the height of the door and ending with its filler.

Dimensions of metal doors with a frame

The dimensions of metal doors differ slightly from the above standards. The fact is that such structures are stronger and heavier than wooden or plastic sheets, and therefore have completely different dimensions.

Particular attention should be paid to the measurements of the doorway if you are going to install a metal door

Regardless of the width of the doorway, you can install such doors. They have several standard size options.

There are only two standard heights metal doors, and their width can be completely different. So door structures with a height of 200 cm can have a width of 60, 70, 80, 90 or 120.2 cm. If the vertical dimension of the product is 230 cm, then its width will be 90, 140.2 or 180.2 cm.

The metal door standards we list are suitable for most imported and domestic producers. However, for the Chinese door system there is a separate list of standards that has larger number positions.

Metal doors are superior to wooden and plastic products in terms of fire safety, strength and burglary resistance. Therefore, they are the most popular products in construction markets.

Thickness is an important size of a metal door

Despite the fact that the thickness of doors does not have clear regulations according to GOST, this value remains very important parameter. After all, sustainability will depend on it iron doors to attempts of unwanted entry into apartments, as well as the degree of protection of the premises from fire.

View sizes and thickness metal door easily available online or in a specialty store

Single layer steel structures should be no thinner than 2 mm. Metal sheets welded together can have a thickness of up to 6 mm. Such doors are the most durable and massive; they can even protect a safe.

Each metal door consists of several sheets of steel. Stiffening ribs are installed between such canvases, which make the structure stronger.

Of course, if you wish, you can order thicker doors. In this case you will provide better protection your apartment, but will increase the weight of the door structure.

Interestingly, imported structures are usually thinner than domestic ones. Chinese doors, even with large dimensions, are made from fairly thin steel sheets. So if the thickness of one sheet of a Russian door reaches 6 cm, then the leaf Chinese equivalent doesn't even reach 4.

Dimensions of entrance doors (video)

Entrance doors should be durable and beautiful. From the right choice The size of the frame and leaf determines how good your door block will look. If you have such an opportunity, then it is better to use door structures of standard dimensions; they are easy to install, and their price is not as high as the cost of custom-made options.

Standard is an advantage when it comes to sizes. The expression “door sizes within the standard” means that when choosing, you don’t have to ask yourself questions about how to hang different hinges or knock out a larger opening (or how to narrow it).

When we're talking about about the front door, you agree, it’s better to experiment with door leaf materials, texture, color, exclusive elements decorative finishing or using forging, but not with size.

In order not to find yourself in a situation where you need to modify the wall decoration, or a situation where you need to place an order for non-standard products, which are usually more expensive, you must definitely decide on the size of the canvas (see). Yes, this is exactly the situation when size matters.

Otherwise, installation from inexpensive and quick can turn into a protracted and unpleasant job, especially when you carry out the installation yourself (see).

It should be noted that the concept of standard size includes two quantities at once: the dimensions of the canvas and the dimensions of the opening.

Standard dimensions of doors and overhead openings:

Table 1

Standard sizes - recessed metal doors and openings:

table 2

Unfortunately, the dimensions of the openings, and therefore the size of the products themselves, in practice do not always clearly coincide with GOST standards (see). It should be noted that imported door sizes are completely inconsistent with Russian standards.

General information

So:

• Most of the openings today in new buildings (P44 M, P44, P3 M) have dimensions in the range of 740–760 millimeters in width by 1,950–1,980 millimeters in height. Thickness varies.
• In brick series houses they are usually in the range of 880–920 millimeters by 2,050–2,100 millimeters.
• In old-type houses, for single-leaf doors, the dimensions of the openings can range from 830 to 960 millimeters in width and from 2,040 to 2,600 millimeters in height.
• In nine-story houses of the seventies, it was quite common to have openings measuring 1,280 by 2,550 millimeters.

In general, the fact is that openings in houses from standard series have a greater variety of types (expandable, with no niches at the entrance, narrowing) and overall dimensions. Therefore, door dimensions can vary even within the riser or entrance of one house.
