Are you bothered by outside noise coming to the room? Do you wonder how to soundproof it and block the outside noise from disturbing your peace?

I admit; living in the city is fantastic. You can get everywhere with ease, and there’s so much to do too. I personally love it (and I have lived in the suburbs too, so I’ve experienced both.)

It’s just the noise is unbearable sometimes, isn’t it? Cars. Barking dogs. Delivery trucks revving their engines early in the morning. Trash collection. Emergency services and who knows what else. 

Oh my gosh, it can seriously drive you mad sometimes!

Are you irritated by the amount of noise coming through your glass doors? Wondering how to soundproof french doors?

It’s hard to deny it – French doors are amazing. They’re styling and classy. Even the most basic model looks a million times better than ordinary-style doors and adds warmth and style to your home. 

But unfortunately, there is a downside to french doors too. The mostly glass doors are notorious for letting a ridiculous level of sound in. With some models, particularly those that don’t have double-glazing windows in them, you can hear almost everything that’s happening outside. 

Luckily, it doesn’t have to be. You can soundproof french doors to at least greatly minimize the amount of noise that they let in, if not block it almost entirely. 

In this guide, you’ll discover how to soundproof french doors. The advice I’m going to show you will work for interior and exterior french doors.
