With the choice of internal doors now available, what are the key points to consider before you head off to make a purchase?<\/p>\n

\u2014<\/p>\n

Although you should always factor in the overall look of your home when selecting internal doors<\/a>, there are a few key trends which are worth of note. Whilst traditional 4 or 6 panelled doors retain their classic appeal, contemporary style large oak doors and other timbers such as walnut and pine in smooth finishes have become popular of late.<\/p>\n

Solid and smooth-fronted wood doors in oak, walnut and pine combine both a timeless material with an up-to-date look. Contemporary horizontal panelling is also a stylish new option for timber, as is the use of chrome inlays and fittings. Internal doors with a glazed panel are proving to be increasingly popular, to allow for the maximum amount of light in a home. Today\u2019s designs are cleaner and simpler, in contrast with the fussier patterns of the recent past.<\/p>\n

French doors are still a hit with consumers, used internally as a dividing wall between rooms, again to create a light and airy atmosphere. For added flexibility, many people make use of folding doors in a combined living \/ dining area. These can be solid or glazed depending on preference. If there are budgetary limitations, you may want to choose wood veneer as a low-cost alternative to solid wood.<\/p>\n

Functionality is as important as attractiveness and you may want to think about options such as certified fire doors for the kitchen or a wipe-clean paint finish for the bathroom. Fixtures need to be considered not only to match the appearance of your doors, but for utility.<\/p>\n

Choose large handles for doors which are frequently used and think about hinging doors to push inwards into a dining room, to make it easier to carry loaded plates or trays from the kitchen. Metal ironmongery such as wrought-iron and polished steel is on-trend, even for wooden doors, which makes for a pleasing contrast between materials.<\/p>\n

Although you can buy ancillary items such as frames and skirting boards and fit them yourself, it is usually recommended that you hire a specialist to fit your internal doors. The money spent on the doors themselves is an investment you won\u2019t want to compromise. One hinge or lock cut-out in the wrong place and the door is ruined!<\/p>\n
