Armoring turns your current door into a security door, without replacing the frame or changing how it looks from outside. It is the most common solution in Parisian buildings, where the co-ownership rules often require landing doors to keep their original appearance.
Price: from €2,300 incl. VAT. The exact price is given on the phone and confirmed in a written quote before any work. Day, evening and night prices
What door armoring includes
A steel plate fixed to the inside of the door leaf, a multi-point lock with a high-security cylinder, anti-jemmy angle bars on the frame, reinforced hinges and anti-lift hinge bolts. Depending on the door, we add a threshold, a peephole or a door limiter.
Why armor rather than replace?
Armoring usually costs less than a complete armored door set, is fitted in a day and keeps your original door, often solid wood in older buildings. It suits most doors in good condition. If the frame is too weak, we will tell you and suggest a complete door set instead.

Frequently asked questions
How much does door armoring cost in Paris?
From €2,300 incl. VAT, fitted, depending on the size, the number of locking points and the lock chosen. The exact price is on a free quote drawn up after a visit.
Do I need the building's approval?
The outer face of the door overlooks the common areas. Armoring that keeps the door's appearance from the landing rarely raises objections, but check your building's co-ownership rules.
How long does fitting take?
Usually one day: your door is closed and secure the same evening.
