According to Mitchell Toews, "No longer the matronly housedress but now imbued with the cachet of the little black cocktail dress. So long as that cocktail dress is healthful, sustainable and architecturally authentic.

"For many designers — and the clients they represent — interior doors’ value as a design element has slowly diminished in recent years. No longer the attention-grabbing wall furniture of the classical period and unlike their contemporary hardwood kin in floors and cabinetry, wooddoors have been largely commoditized. For many, a door is just a door. But to those in the industry — and for a rapidly growing number of astute practitioners in the design and building community –doors have been rediscovered as a haute commodity in interior design."

Add Intrigue with Interior Doors!

You’ve heard us talk a lot about the many possibilities of the interior door. And while, yes, we do consider ourselves experts in the area, you will likely find the following information from top designers to be just as interesting and beneficial. We have compiled a list of expert tips and some even better advice to help you on your quest for the perfect interior door. And because we can’t take all the credit for the following design tips, we feel it pertinent to mention that a variety of designers employed by HGTV and a few of the experts at Deco Design also put time and effort into the following compilation of design techniques as they relate to the interior door.

Perhaps you’re considering standard interior doors. Standard interior doors are simply one-piece doors that fit an opening and are mounted on hinges to one side of the opening. They swing out or into a room, depending on installation or the home owners choice, and can accommodate an interior doorknob or handle, which can be locked from inside or outside as recommended to the room. Some standard interior doors are solid wood, but many are hollow or solid core paint grade. Deco Design Center solid mahogany wood interior doors can be stained where solid core interior doors can primed and painted in any color. A six-panel wood interior door is also a standard interior door, but with recessed panels and raised molding added as a design element.

Maybe you’re planning to be a bit more creative with bifolds. Bifold doors are one of the most popular types of interior doors used for closets and between two frequently used rooms such as a bedroom leading to the bathroom. Bi-fold doors are two doors hinged together that fold into one another. They are mounted on a aluminum track that hangs from the head, or top, of the opening to make the bifold interior door slide smoothly. An door opening can hold one single bi-fold door or two doors that meet in the middle. They are a popular choice because when they are opened, there is less intrusion into the room than standard doors. The design of bifold doors can be solid, louvered, or a combination of both. There are also six-paneled solid wood bi-fold doors for added design. Bifold doors are generally not used for areas requiring privacy, such as bathrooms or a home theater room.
