Choosing the right front door

What do your front doors that you just mentioned cost?

I have an anthracite-colored wooden front door with a velvet glass side panel for €3500. The door fits perfectly with the plastic windows since both are from the same manufacturer

Aluminum is supposed to sweat and be very cold-conductive in winter,

That is ancient nonsense. Around 1970, aluminum profiles were indeed installed, which were continuous at the sash and the frame. That stuff was durable, and is therefore still found in many multi-family house stairwells today. However, this processing standard is long gone; today's aluminum profiles are multipart with thermal decoupling of the interior and exterior sides from each other. In many people's minds, aluminum windows and doors are still the old things, and also still brushed and tin can-colored.

What does it mean when it is bilaterally winged, what are the advantages and disadvantages?

By the way, it is called "Flügelüberdeckend" and means that the door leaf surface is flush, i.e. the panel does not recess behind the frame profile of the door leaf. The lighter the material, the more noticeable the shadow of such an edge is, which is especially avoided in houses of cubic form in the "Bauhaus style" to not disturb the planar clarity by constructionally caused but not intentionally designed structuring. Since this mostly applies to the outside, this overlap is often omitted on the inside. Mostly because of the disadvantage of a significantly higher price. Profile manufacturers like to use specialized panel manufacturers as suppliers. Since the profiles have manufacturer- and model-specific total thicknesses, double-sided door leaf overlap is particularly complex. Single-sided overlapping can use the panel design more as a "stock size", double-sided will practically be a custom-made item, also in thickness. No one does that "for next to nothing."

Hi thanks for the explanation, but I still haven’t fully understood it. The point about the smooth front is okay, but what does it look like physically now?

I have also already tried looking at pictures but I just don’t get it. Maybe I’ll have someone on site explain it to me from a provider next time.

I have now received two links from a local farmer to online configurators from the company OBST and the company OBUK. Here we at least partially come close to our expectations visually, let’s see what the price inquiry brings. At least it’s no longer a custom-made product.

Due to what I’ll call the limited offer because of the price and our visual expectations, we have put aside our preference for the material (aluminum, plastic, plastic door and aluminum cladding of the filling, wood).

Hi thanks for the explanation, but I still haven’t quite understood it. The point about the flush front is okay, but what does it physically look like now?

Well, the front is flush. On a non-wing-covering side of the door, you have a stepped appearance. The inner filling is, as you can see, set in a frame. Take a look at adeco. You can clearly see the differences there. The Decenta class is wing-covering, the Accenta is not.
