I know this has been done before....
We have a door in what was an exterior cavity wall giving access to an annexe and our lodger. There is a separate exterior door so the internal one is currently only used by the cleaner.
The adjoining room is used as a bedroom on the occasions when all the family are home. The lodger is a pilot so tends to disturb sleepers when leaving for an early flight.
My family seem convinced the only solution is close off the opening with fresh block work. So far my efforts have not gone beyond adding draught seal to minimise airborne transmission. The door is double skinned, pine and oak for fire resistance so quite substantial. The wall continues to the roof apex so this is not loft transmission.
My question is.... would fitting a second similarly constructed door to the other side of the opening give significant further attenuation? Or??
