Choosing the right interior door is about more than just function—it’s a key design decision that can shape the look and feel of your entire home. From classic to contemporary, interior doors come in a variety of materials and styles to fit every budget and taste.
Here’s your go-to guide for understanding the most common types of interior doors.
Flush Doors: These doors are flat, smooth, and simple. They work well in modern spaces where clean lines and minimal design take center stage. Typically made of MDF or plywood over a solid or hollow core, flush doors are also budget friendly.
Panel Doors: Panel doors are among the most common and versatile styles. They feature raised or recessed panels (usually in 2, 4, or 6 configurations) and work with nearly every interior design style.
Shaker Doors: Shaker-style doors feature clean, square-edged recessed panels. This minimalist look is popular in modern farmhouse, transitional, and Scandinavian-style homes.
Barn Doors: A popular design trend, barn doors slide on a mounted track and work well in open layouts or as a space-saving solution. They add rustic charm or industrial appeal, depending on the finish.
French Doors: These double doors feature glass panels and are often used between living spaces or as office dividers. They add elegance and let in natural light.
Choosing the Right Door
- Room Function: Privacy may be a priority for bedrooms, while style and openness are ideal for shared spaces.
- Material: Solid core doors offer better soundproofing and durability, while hollow core doors are lighter and more affordable.
- Finish: Consider pre-painted vs. unfinished doors, and how your selection coordinates with existing trim.
