Nowadays, interior doors no longer only serve the purpose of creating an opening or a closing between 2 rooms, they can also provide your home with a decorative and architectural aspect. The doors that you choose will definitely have an impact on the interior design of your home.

As such, several things must be considered before making your choice of interior doors. For example, you can choose the type of door, its composition, its style, its panels, if it has a specific use, etc. So in the following lines, we’ll try to list the different options available to you in order to help you with your choice of interior doors.

Door type

One of the first things to consider is the type of interior doors in which you're interested. They can vary in terms of how they open or slide. You can have swinging doors, hinged doors, sliding doors or even folding doors.

•       Swinging doors: This is the most common door system. This type of door opens only on one side, either to the left or right. Swinging doors are ideal when you have enough free space in the room.

•       Sliding doors: This type of interior door remains against the wall. In today's trends, rail doors are becoming increasingly popular. They provide your room with an entirely unique style. In addition, sliding doors are spacesavers in your room.

•       Pocket doors: Being a category of sliding door, this type of door also saves space. The difference with traditional sliding doors is that the pocket door slides fits between the 2 wall panels. In other words, when the door is fully open, it's out of sight inside the wall.

Door styles

Your home's interior doors can have different styles. For example, if you want light in your office, French doors can be a good option. Or, if space is limited in your room, but you want to have a large mirror, sliding mirror doors could be a good alternative.

As such, the style of your interior doors can vary from room to room depending on the available space or the needs of each room. In addition, they can provide each room with a completely different design.
