Choosing the Right Interior Doors

Updated: Mar 17, 2023


There are several things to think about when choosing a new inside door. These factors include the door's size and style, the material used to construct it, and your budget.


Style and Size


The size and style of the door should be taken into account first. Although the majority of interior doors come in standard sizes, you should still measure the opening to ensure a proper fit. Also, you should consider the door's general style as well as whether you want a solid or hollow-core door. Many common styles include:


6-panel

2-panel

Riverside

Barn Door

French Doors

Material


The door's construction is the next thing you should think about. There are several solutions available, each having advantages and drawbacks of their own.

  • Wood: Beautiful wood doors may bring warmth to any space. Also, they are strong and long-lasting. Yet, they can be pricey and need upkeep on a regular basis to stay in good shape.

  • Doors made of MDF (medium-density fiberboard) are inexpensive and simple to paint or stain. They can distort if exposed to moisture, and are not as robust as wood.

  • Steel: Steel doors are a popular option for external doors since they are highly sturdy and secure. Moreover, they are low-maintenance and fire-resistant. They lack the visual appeal of wood or MDF doors, though.

  • Fiberglass: Fiberglass doors may be made to look like wood, and they are equally strong and secure as steel doors. They also require little maintenance and are incredibly energy-efficient.

Budget


Finally, you'll want to consider your budget. Prices for doors can range from under $100 to over $1,000. Understand that more expensive doors might be constructed from stronger materials and have extra features like energy-efficient glass or improved security measures.

In general, purchasing an interior door is a serious decision that should not be made hastily. You can pick the ideal door to improve the appearance and functionality of your space by taking into account the size, style, and material of the door as well as your budget.
