By material

To ensure that the appearance of the door matches the design of the apartment, comfortable operation, as well as its replacement if necessary, when buying, be sure to pay attention to the material. All these nuances can fully provide natural materials. They are of much higher quality and appearance them more presentable.

Ecoveneer

Given the fact that natural materials have a rather high price, veneer sheets began to be used in the production of interior products. They are the thinnest cuts of wood from 06 mm to 1 mm. To achieve the required strength, the sections are glued together until the desired coating thickness is obtained.

Natural veneer has a special nuance - it has its own individual structure and unique pattern. This causes significant trouble during production, since it becomes problematic to find the same texture and color.

This issue was resolved by means of a new product in the industry - veneer, made using a special technology "Fine-line". For this, poplar or abacha wood is used, grown in a special way to achieve a uniform structure and to achieve the absence of knots.

The advantages of eco-veneer include:

  • naturalness and environmental friendliness of the material;
  • fine-line material has a uniform color and structure;
  • the ability to reduce wood consumption and achieve a variety of designs;
  • allows you to reduce the cost in relation to products made from natural wood.

Despite all the advantages, this material has some disadvantages. Firstly, fine-line veneer has a low degree of strength, since soft poplar wood is used, and secondly, the use of more expensive material entails a high price and a heterogeneous structure.

Elite solid wood doors

Products from a natural array have a canvas made from natural boards of various kinds of wood species. The result is a beautiful thing with high wear resistance. The cost of such a door is considerable and directly depends on the type of wood. The most expensive options include canvases made of beech, oak, maple and mahogany. Their price reaches $500. Products from soft breeds, for example, from pine and spruce, are considered cheaper. Their cost is about $200.

The high price of natural wood doors is also due to the fact that the material itself is very capricious in processing - defects such as deformation and distortion may occur.

The positive characteristics include:

  • high strength door leaf;
  • the ability to ensure reliability in fastening;
  • quality of processing with finishing materials;
  • the ability to manufacture doors independently or to order;
  • natural wood doors are high quality products.

But with all the advantages, there are also disadvantages:

  • a low degree of probability to make doors of the same color and structure;
  • instability of wood to temperature changes and elevated level humidity;
  • a lot of weight, which eventually leads to sagging of the canvas, so you should purchase high quality accessories;
  • a high probability of the formation of discrepancies and cracks at the junction of the lamellas.

by color

The color of the door must be selected based on the overall style of the house or apartment. Very often there is a design of rooms in different style, in which case you need to look at color solution hall, hallway, corridor or living room. To date, there are quite a few models of interior doors. Let's pay attention to the design, close to natural materials.

milan nut

Milan walnut doors are in a gradation between brown and red. One of the popular collections of Milan walnut shades are the Orchid models. They are very popular among consumers.

Oak smoky

Smoky oak is a rather pleasing color, approaching a light grey. It has a well-defined structure, visible over the entire area of ​​the canvas. It harmonizes well with contrasting materials of dark shades.

The smoky color of oak is a combination of sophistication and unobtrusiveness, which is perfectly expressed in the relief structure of wood.

Red tree

Mahogany is the epitome of nobility. You can recognize it by the color of burgundy, which does not have bright tones. Thanks to this, a "screaming" effect is not created.

blue doors

Doors in a blue tint cannot be attributed to products presented in a wide range. You can meet them only in stores with this direction. Products in blue color, despite the fact that it is a cold shade, they are perfectly combined in the interior with warm tones. They visually give the space airiness and freshness.

With proper use in the interior, blue doors can become an original touch, emphasizing nobility and sophistication.

Non-standard options

Very often, a certain style of the room requires the installation of unique doors that are not similar to those familiar to everyone. And this applies not only to design, but also to the structure of the material from which the product can be made, and the method of installation. Consider a few non-standard door designs that are popular today.

hidden doors

Hidden doors have a special structure. They involve a hidden aluminum box with an internal or external opening type, and hidden hinges.

By design

Interior doors in the interior have differences in the structure of the leaf itself. It can be either a blank canvas or various modern designs. Let's take a look at several options.

Paneled

Not every consumer understands the essence of the phrase "paneled doors." The panel is an insert in the door leaf. It is slightly thinner than the frame thickness. This is a fairly common type in the design of interior doors. The panel is a sheet of plywood or any other modern material, which is inserted into the frame.

The door leaf may consist of one or more panels. The more such inserts, the more original the product looks.

Shield

Door leafs, which have a smooth structure, are the basis of panel-type doors. They are divided into hollow and solid. Solid ones are made of solid wood, and hollow ones have a frame made of wooden planks and lined with trim. Between the frame, empty spaces are filled with special layers in the form of honeycombs.

An interior door can become a decorative element that emphasizes the style of the room. The function of a door is no longer limited to separating one room from another. Fashionable interior doors emphasize the style of the room, and even a modest door design can look very elegant, complementing the overall style of the room.

The nuances of installing an interior door

Today, a high-quality door leaf can often be purchased along with a box, which will simplify the process of installing an interior door. In addition, both in the stores themselves and in the service market, it is possible to order installation by specialists.

But what to do if the decision is made to self installation? Let's try to analyze this issue using the example of a simple swing door without a box.

The first thing to do is to remove the purchased product from the package and make sure it is intact. Then take measurements along the length, width and thickness of the canvas itself, determine the type of loops.

The dimensions of the doors are different, and the size of the selected box depends on them. In this case, it is necessary to remember about the gaps and not make a mistake, so that you do not have to subsequently expand the opening in the wall.

At the next step, we fasten the hinges on the door, while each of them should look inside the room, and the distance from the top and bottom of the canvas should be at least 20-25 cm. The hinge should protrude 2 mm beyond the edge of the door. After all the settings, we circle both loops with a pencil and carefully select the circled part of the canvas with a chisel. We put loops in the prepared grooves, drill small holes with a drill and fasten them onto self-tapping screws.

The first method requires a circular saw with a set angle. In its absence, it is better to turn to the second method. Box details: two posts and a lintel (horizontal beam in the upper part) are cut at a right angle with a hacksaw, and the lintel can be placed on top of the uprights or between them. Having attached a door to the box and stepped back 2.5 mm, we make a mark for the threshold, not forgetting about the gaps on the sides.

At the same stage, we mark the places for the hinges and the lock, in order to then select them with a chisel. We twist the box with self-tapping screws, having previously drilled holes with a drill, fasten the pad for the lock and the hinge (it is assumed that the hinges used are composite, with two parts - for the canvas and for the box).

Now we mount the box, leveling its vertical position with a level. We put spacers for fixing. We hang the door to make sure that it opens without problems. If necessary, we equalize the position of the box with spacers.

We make the final fixation with the help of self-tapping screws through the box or with the help of special suspensions (plates) screwed from its end.
