Choosing internal doors for your home can be difficult with the number of options available on the market.

However, there are ways that you can narrow down your options by looking at your current interior (or the plans for the new interior).

For example, if you’re into the look of real wood you’d be best to choose an Oak door for instance.

If you like bright but simple interiors, a white door with very little detailing might be the one for you.

We’re going to look at the options you have when it comes to buying an internal door.

White Primed Doors

For a light and airy interior, white doors will be a solid choice.

They won’t stand out as much as doors with a different colour or texture, but most of the time this is what you’re looking for.

White also goes with almost every colour there is so tying it in with your current interior shouldn’t be an issue.

But if you still want to people to take notice of the new doors, stay away from the plain and simple designs and choose something with a bit of character.

Some white doors that you can purchase are simply white primed. However, you’re not always able to tell as the finish is so good! But it is advised that if you get a primed door, you add your own final coat of paint to it.

Oak Doors

Another very popular option is an oak door. If it’s a real wood look you’re aiming for, then this is a no brainer.

Oak doors come in both modern and traditional designs so rest assured there’ll be something for your home.

Because the door will be made from oak (or at least covered in an oak style finish), you can expect there to be a texture to the door – just as you would with any real wood.

It’s been growing in popularity over recent years and for good reason.

When paired with white skirting board and architrave, an oak door will really stand out against the background.

Grey Doors

The colour grey within interiors has seen a huge increase in recent times.

It seems that everyone is moving away from white as being a base or primary colour within their interior and opting for a shade of grey instead.

And now you’re able to choose grey doors to match those style interiors!

Unfortunately, the range isn’t as big as white or oak doors as the demand hasn’t reached that level yet, but the doors that are on offer are certainly not to be shunned.

The most popular shade of grey amongst interiors seems to be a light / mid grey so it does lend itself more to a lighter style interior.

Black Doors

For the bold interior, a black door can be a fine choice.

However, we don’t think you can chuck a black door in any home and expect it to work.

It’s a given that a home with a black and white theme will be accepting of black doors.

Also a home that gives preference to the colour black or is on the darker side of styling.

But a bright, airy and predominantly white coloured home just wouldn’t be suited to house this style of door.

Glazed Doors

Not so much a colour choice here, but glazed doors often lead into kitchens and we’re hear to say that this doesn’t have to be the norm.

Now, if you’re set on a style of door for your home there is more than likely a glazed version of the door to match.

Most of the time, this would be used between the kitchen and whichever room it leads onto.

However, if you want more light throughout the home it can be a good option to used a glazed door to allow this.

For instance, between the hallway and the living room. Maybe in the dining room too.

Not only will it allow more light into the rooms (providing the rooms have windows letting in the light), the rooms may feel larger to as you can see into the next room.

You should opt for a clear glass panel on the glazed door for a modern look. We think the frosted panels tend to look more traditional.
