When design meets function - more becomes possible. Imagine a world where there will never again be swollen doorframes in moisture-prone rooms. Abstraction? Have you ever seen a bathroom in an apartment or hotel room, with a linear drain in the shower, designed so awkwardly that water floods the floor and reaches the doorframe, which is in contact with the floor? And what if the door frame has not been protected with silicone?
Wooden material, i.e. classic MDF or HDF, even when impregnated, begins to absorb water and this reaction is irreversible, forever affecting its structure. Cellulose fibers, compressed in the material will begin to expand - this is a natural process. Over time, the doorframe will swell, will lose its appearance and eventually make it difficult to close the door. That's why the HYDRO PROTECT™ 100% waterproof doorframe was created.

Durable, waterproof with a classic look
No more swollen doorframes! HYDRO PROTECT™ is waterproof, looks identical to PORTA's classic system door frames and lasts for years! This is where design meets function.
100% water resistance is one of the most important advantages of the HYDRO PROTECT door frame. Made of wood-polymer composite, this door frame is 100% water resistant. This means that it can be used without fear in rooms exposed to moisture, such as kitchens, bathrooms, laundry rooms, hotel rooms or rental apartments. Thanks to this innovative solution, users will enjoy peace of mind and comfort, knowing that their doorframes will not be damaged by moisture. It's a groundbreaking solution that ensures durability and aesthetics for years to come.

Another important feature of the HYDRO PROTECT™ doorframe is that it is identical to other doorframes in the PORTA SYSTEM and PORTA SYSTEM ELEGANCE series. Standard door frames look exactly the same as their waterproof counterparts. As a result, you don't have to worry about differences in appearance. All doorframes will match each other in terms of color, shape and finish, which allows you to maintain aesthetic consistency throughout your home. It's a solution that combines functionality with elegance.

It is created from a wood-polymer composite, where the wood fibers are completely immersed in the polymer and water has no access to them, even when submerged for long periods of time. It retains high stability and does not swell, which is a huge advantage over classic materials.
