Uw, W/(m²·K)
A front door loses heat faster than a window — bigger panel, no glass-unit-grade fill in most cases. Below 1.0 — excellent. 1.0–1.3 — modern standard. Above 1.4 — outdated for Spain.

Quick guide
What Actually Matters in an Entrance Door
The numbers in the table, plus the ones that aren't in it
Profile depth
Same scale as windows. 70 mm is entry, 80–88 mm is modern. Deeper profiles take thicker panel fills, which is where the real Uw gains come from for doors.
Security class
EN 1627 ratings RC1 (basic) to RC6 (vault). RC2 stops casual break-in with hand tools — the practical minimum for a Spanish home. RC3+ uses reinforced hardware and is recommended for ground-floor or rural homes.
Panel fill
A door is a profile + a panel. Standard PVC fill is ~30 mm; warm-house fills go to 60–80 mm with PU foam core. The panel choice can swing Uw by 0.3 W/m²K. Always ask which panel is in the quoted price.
Choose by use case
Which Door Is Right for You?
Match the door to the opening it lives in, not just to the Uw number.
House front door
Security comes first, thermal second. Filter by brand if you have one for your windows (keeps the look consistent), then sort by Uw ascending. Ask the quote to be priced with at least RC2 hardware and a warm-house panel.
Look at: Geneo Door, 88 Puerta, Millennium Plus 80.
Apartment / flat entrance door
On a corridor or stairwell, thermal matters less and security/acoustic matter more. Sort by sound (dB). The panel choice dominates here too — laminated glass panel for stairwell noise.
Look at: Synego Door, 76 Puerta, AluClip Puerta.
Balcony door (PVC window assembly)
Often these are not "doors" at all but tilt-and-turn windows extending to the floor. For our purposes — same profile family as your windows is the right pick, just in the door variant. Filter by your window brand.
Look at: Euro-Design 70 Door, Brillant-Design 70 Door.
Passive house / rural villa
Heating losses dominate. Sort Uw ascending and pick from the top. With a Passivhaus-grade panel, even premium profiles like Geneo Door reach Ud ~ 0.7 W/m²K. Worth every euro if you're heating off-grid.
Look at: Geneo Door, 88 Puerta, Millennium Plus 80.
FAQ
Door Comparison FAQ
What security class should I pick?
RC2 is the practical floor for a Spanish home — it stops a casual burglar with screwdriver, pliers and a small crowbar (3 minutes resistance). RC3 demands power-tool resistance and is the right choice for ground floors, isolated homes or commercial entrances. RC4+ is for jewellers and similar. The class is a hardware choice, not the profile, so the same profile can come in different classes.
The Uw on this table — is that the door or the profile?
It's the profile only (Uf in the spec sheet). A real installed door — profile + panel + glass cut-out + handle — usually shows a higher Ud value. The shift can be 0.1–0.4 W/m²K, dominated by the panel fill. For a binding number ask for the EN 14351-1 Ud declaration of the configuration you're buying.
How much extra is a "warm-house" panel?
Roughly €150–€300 over a standard 30 mm panel. Pays back in about 5 winters on a north-facing front door in central Spain, faster in the north. For a south-facing door with good awning, the energy gain is small — spend the budget on a better lock instead.
PVC, aluminium or hybrid for the front door?
PVC is warmer and cheaper. Aluminium has slimmer sightlines, larger possible openings and a tougher look. The "hybrid" route (AluClip Puerta, Millennium with aluminium overlay) gives you PVC thermals with an aluminium exterior — popular for villas with contemporary facades. For pure thermal performance, full PVC wins.
Does a thicker door give better sound insulation?
Indirectly. A thicker profile takes a thicker panel, and the panel mass is what stops sound. A 60 mm warm-house panel is about 4 dB quieter than a 30 mm standard. For an apartment door on a stairwell, this is the single best upgrade you can make.
How should I use this table?
Decide use case first (house front, apartment, balcony), then filter brand if your windows are already from one. Sort Uw ascending and shortlist the top 3–4. Open each detail page to check available security classes and panel options before requesting a quote.
