Crafting Silence: The Art of Soundproofing in Urban Delhi

 A Case Study from Sarvapriya Vihar, Delhi

In the heart of Delhi's bustling Sarvapriya Vihar neighborhood, We have successfully demonstrated its expertise in high-performance soundproofing solutions with the installation of a state-of-the-art lift and slide door systems. This project showcases our commitment to delivering international standard acoustic performance while maintaining aesthetic excellence.


Project Overview

Location: Sarvapriya Vihar, Delhi

Project Type: Residential

Solution Implemented: RSVP Soundproof Lift & Slide Door System

Achievement: Sub-40 dB noise levels (Meeting International Standards for Living room)


The Challenge

Urban residences in Delhi face significant challenges with noise pollution from traffic, construction, and general city life. Mr. Setia required a solution that would:

  • Significantly reduce external noise

  • Maintain smooth operation for daily use
  • Preserve architectural aesthetics
  • Meet international soundproofing standards

  • Premium gasket sealing system, replacing traditional brush seals for superior soundproofing

Technical Solution

The  Soundproof Lift & Slide Door System incorporates several innovative features:








  • High-end Sobinco (Made in Belgium) concealed frame-locking fittings
  • Multi-chamber aluminum profiles for superior acoustic insulation
  • Double glazed clear laminated glass, performing a triple role in our composition – keeper of security, warrior against noise, and shield from temperature extremes
  • Advanced lift & slide mechanism for complete perimeter sealing when closed
  • Precision-engineered lifting mechanism for effortless operation despite robust construction

The key differentiator in our system is the replacement of conventional brush seals with a sophisticated gasket sealing system. When combined with the premium Sobinco fittings, this creates an airtight seal around the entire frame when the door is in the locked position. The concealed frame-locking mechanism ensures not only superior acoustic performance but also enhances the overall aesthetic appeal of the installation.


Performance Results

Through precise installation and quality materials, we achieved:

  • Noise reduction to below 40 dB
  • Seamless operation despite the robust construction
  • Perfect weather sealing
  • Compliance with international acoustic standards

Installation Process

Our installation team followed a rigorous process:

  1. Pre-installation acoustic assessment
  2. Precision frame installation with acoustic isolation
  3. Careful glass panel placement
  4. Multiple quality checks and adjustments
  5. Post-installation acoustic testing

Client Benefits

Mr. Setia now enjoys:

  • Peaceful indoor environment
  • Enhanced property value
  • Energy efficiency due to superior sealing
  • Modern aesthetic appeal
