Looking for armored home entrance door

I think you`ve answered the question yourself. Most front doors used here are standard composite doors with a multilock. Maybe 3 or 4 anchor points and locking points. Going beyond that is generally outside the contractors scope and remit. Are you particularly concerned about a concerted armed attack ? If so I would reckon the rest of the building would not be up to it and Irish construction is not blockwork throughout.

I think you need specialist advice, certainly not a standard consumer question

Relations had an armoured door on a back entrance to their shop. The robbers took out the solid block wall surrounding the door to get in.

I would be more concerned with security at the back of the house. What are your doors like there?

Munster joinery have doors which are Pas 24 security standard. From a quick look, it seems that a heap of powertools and effort is needed to break a door like that.

It seems that thats a british standard, so Ireland being a good european has door companies using that rather than the slightly more stringent EU (i.e. German) RC3 test.

Still, windows in Ireland can often be super flimsy with sometimes only the one latch at the handle rather than a couple on each side like you will see on modern continental windows, so even if you brick up your door, your windows may be how a thief chooses to pay you a visit.

FWIW we recently replaced our apartment door with a RC4 standard secure door from https://www.securitycertifieddoors.ie/zentry-apartment-security-doors.php.

The door was a non standard size, so was custom made for us. Consultancy, measuring, ordering, shipping and fitting the door cost a total of €2,800. The door met the stringent fire requirements used in apartment blocks – including the install – which took about five hours to fit. We kept our apartment management company involved in the process throughout and the installers provided them with all the documentation and proof of correct installation afterwards.

The door was supplied with five sets of keys for each of the two locks.

The door was fitted with a secure steel frame installed into the pored rebar-reenforced concrete walls that surround our apartment. All windows and balconies are overlooking the outside and are seven floors high. Meaning that the door is realistically the only way to enter the apartment and therefore provides a secure perimeter. Especially seeing as its an internal door protected with CCTV and a strong external door controlled by the apartment complex intercom system.

While expensive, we found the company we used sincere, with a great attention to detail and they did everything on the day and time they said they would.

The motivation for our strong door was mostly that we have an expensive car (the kind of car there is less than ten of in Ireland) parked in our underground car park – and while there is no easy way to associate the car parking place with our apartment number– this door greatly reduces the chances that someone will successfully break in to get the keys (steal to order).
