The world is a very loud place, and city dwellers are unwittingly exposed to more noise than they realize! The average noise levels in urban and suburban environments range from 50 to 70 decibels (dBA), while noise levels near construction zones and highways typically range between 80 and 110 dBA. According to the United States Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA), sustained exposure to 85 dBA or higher can cause permanent hearing loss. Business owners and managers have an obligation to protect their employees from all potential workplace hazards, and that’s where our team at National Custom Hollow Metal comes in!

Now that we have the pandemic in our rear-view mirror, the amount of remote workers returning to the office is trending upward. More workers means more noise, which can have a detrimental impact on both employee morale and overall productivity. Some employees don’t mind tuning out a little background noise, but it’s a company’s responsibility to ensure they don’t have to! The good news is that our team at National Custom Hollow Metal proudly offers custom-built Sound Safe doors with superior noise reduction capabilities, and we’re ready to give you a same-day quote!
