During our most recent project we worked on turning a regular door into a soundproof wall to divide a 4-bedroom rental suite into two separate units. We do not want noise leaking between the two units so we are soundproofing a room by soundproofing a wall (with the door on the other side). The below instructions should reduce the sound travelling between neighboring suites. All you need is a single trip to your local hardware store and less than an hour of your time.

How to soundproof a door cheap? We have accomplished our soundproofing job in only 3 steps using noise-resistant drywall and insulation, along with silicon to seal everything in place. We used the following materials:

1. 5/8″ Quiet Rock Drywall: This drywall is much more dense than it’s regular counterpart. As such, sound travel is much less distinct.

2. Safe ‘n Sound Rockwool Insulation: This insulation breaks down and captures soundwaves similar to a soundproofing foam

If you would like to know how to soundproof your room, we can create future video on how to make a room soundproof diy or how to soundproof a wall. The soundproofing materials used in this video would be effective for how to soundproof a room; however it would be intrusive and you would need to do some demolition if it is not new construction.
