If the barking of the neighboring dog is getting on your nerves, you should go for sound proof doors. There are many ways in which you can make your house soundproof. But acoustic doors are highly preferred choice for their efficiency in preventing the sound from entering your house.

Acoustic doors come in as a single door variety or double door variety. The double door Acoustic doors insulate the sound to a greater extent as they cover more area. In order to make full use of the Acoustic doors, do not install window panes or cat flaps on the doors as they make it easier for sound to travel.

The merit of any sound proofing device is measured by a parameter called Sound Transmission Class (STC). The higher is this STC, the more effective the device is. Acoustic doors have STC of 56 which is pretty decent.
