i. Leather Door
This is the door that is made from leather to
prevent unwanted access to an apartment and to reduce the rate of
penetration of sunlight.
The frame and panel is made of wood and the
leather is wrapped round the panel. The panel is joined to the frame
with the aid of hinges for adequate movement of the door and also to
allow for easy opening and closing of the door.
ii. Wooden Door
Due
to the fact that doors made from leather does not guarantee unwanted
access to an apartment, this lead to use of wood as material for doors.
Wooden
doors are greatly appreciated because, it possesses good workability,
ease of construction relatively cheap and it is readily available in
market. When a quality, strong and well treated wood material is used,
the finishing outlook of a wooden door is inestimable.
iii. Flat Sheet Door
Flat
sheet door is a door design with metal frame and metal sheet as the
panel. Sheet metal door is used in environment or house where adequate
security is needed. Flat sheet door can withstand relatively high strain
and strength.
iv. Glass – Metal Door
This is a door in
which the frame is made with metal and the body made of glass. Glass
metal door is a very attractive and fascinating door design used in
homes, offices and corporate buildings.
It is also used in tourism centres and in entertainment industries to create a good looking for their environment.
2.2 Choice of Alternative
Metal Door
Metal is a very important material used in almost every field of engineering and technology.
The
use of metal door is gradually replacing, eradicating wooden doors
because of its defect such as warping, knotting etc. which tends to
lower its strength and make it to be easily break through.
Metal door
could be painted and coated properly to prevent it from corrosion. It
also provides maximum protection which may be attained in wooden door.
(Sauveur, 2010).
Twin panel metal door is a type of door construction
mainly with metal. It can be used in houses, stores, offices and
auditorium.
Despite its strength and high resistance to strain it can
be painted to give it a god and attractive look. This makes it suitable
for use even in corporate buildings. Twin panel metal door goes beyond
the protection of life and properties alone but also make buildings to
look decent. When it is designed with an eye view and door knocker, it
enables the owner to view the visitor at the other side of the door and
also enable or help the visitor to knock without his/her hand but with
the knocker.
This project work is termed twin panel door because it
consist of two (2) doors: the small door and the big door which makes it
possible for in and out passage of large object which may not pass
through the single panel metal door. Therefore, it could be said that
twin panel metal door with an eye viewer and a door knocker is the best
of all other forms of doors (Sauveur, 2010).

ii. Steel doors (fire rated & non – fire rated)
iii. Embossed steel doors
iv. Airtight doors
v. Acoustical doors
vi. Lead lined doors
vii. Access panel doors
viii. Metal louvers doors
