When designing an apartment or a private house, every detail is important, to say nothing of such a functional and necessary piece of furniture as an interior door.

A variety of models, manufacturing methods, materials and color solutions, allow you to find a suitable option for any type of home, for owners with any budget size. But to solve several difficult dilemmas, before you go to the store for shopping, you still have to - from what material should the interior doors be made, what shape and size should the curtains be, blind or with inserts, dark or light, concise or with decor? We hope that our selection with hundreds of interesting design projects of modern rooms will help you in this difficult decision.

Shape and dimensions of interior doors

Even if you plan to repair or replace door leafs in an apartment where all openings are of standard size, you must first verify this and make accurate measurements. Indeed, the manufacture of door leaf by individual standards will not only increase the estimate for repairs, but also “stretch” the entire process in time. The standard width of the doorway is considered to be 60, 70, 80 and 90 centimeters - it all depends on the room in which the doors will be installed. But with the height of the canvases of modern manufacturers, e is all so simple. Until recently, it was rarely possible to find finished products with a height of more than 2 meters in wide sale. Nowadays, a door leaf with a height of 2.1 or 2.2 meters is a private phenomenon.

Designers recommend using door leafs with a non-standard height, more than 2 meters, to visually raise the ceilings of rooms. But not every owner is pleased with the need for preliminary preparation of a standard doorway, its expansion. It’s up to you to look for the door leaf to fit the existing structure or to “fit” the doorway to your favorite door model.

Most buyers prefer to choose standard models, which can be found in the assortment of stores, get quickly and inexpensively. Indeed, the manufacture of the canvas according to your size and design will cost significantly more, it will take more time. But one cannot but recognize the fact that the canvas made according to an individual project will not only ideally fit into the parameters of the room, but can also become an interior decoration, its highlight.

Type of construction and method of fixing interior paintings

The most popular, despite the emerging alternative options, our compatriots enjoy single-wing and double-wing hinged interior doors. The simplicity and traditionality of the design and the method of opening, the versatility of the paintings and the ease of installation, coupled with a wide range of price decisions, bribe Russians to purchase exactly these doors for their homes, whether it is a standard-built apartment or a private house built according to the project.

Obviously, the most common version of the door leaf in apartments and private houses is a single-wing hinged door. But bivalve canvases are used quite actively. A wide doorway gives certain advantages - a feeling of spaciousness, greater illumination of corridors and other auxiliary rooms, the ability to transfer large-sized furniture. But bicuspid models also have drawbacks - opening two sheets at once requires a lot of free space, furniture cannot be installed near the doorway, which is important for rooms with a small area.

The biggest drawback of swing doors in the interior is the need to free up a fairly large amount of usable room space. For small rooms or just spaces where there is no way to open the doors near the doorway, sliding doors are used. Created on the principle of doors in a compartment, such mechanisms on the one hand help to create a complete isolation of one space from the other, and on the other, create savings in useful square meters of the room.

Initially, the movement of the compartment doors took place along two guides - one was attached to the floor, the second to the wall above the doorway. Nowadays, sliding doors with only one upper rail are gaining popularity (nothing prevents the movement of people in the doorway). In addition, the design of the guide often becomes part of the stylistic involvement of the interior - a bright or dark accent, a detail that emphasizes the mood of the room.

One of the variations of doors that help to save space and do not require free meters to open - sliding canvases. From sliding doors, such models differ in that the canvas "leaves" not away from the opening, but inside the wall or partition. Hence the first drawback of such mechanisms is the need to equip a niche. Such structures are best planned in advance, at the stage of preparation for repair.

The least popular, but used in some cases, version of the door leaf is two and three-leaf doors that move like an accordion. If the space of the room needs to be saved, but there is no possibility for installing sliding doors, then the accordion cloth is your option.

We choose the material for the manufacture of doors

Two factors influence the choice of material for the manufacture of interior doors:

repair budget;
the specifics and microclimate of the room, its functionality (for the kitchen, bathroom, bathroom and laundry, it is important to take into account the level of high humidity and temperature differences).

I must say that the main criterion for choosing the material for the manufacture of door leaves is still your financial ability - the range in prices is incredibly wide. To date, the most popular options for raw materials for the manufacture of interior doors are:

Fiberboard - One of the most common options, which ensured its leading position due to a decent price-quality ratio. Doors made of fiberboard are lightweight, easy to install and operate. A wide range of models also affects the popularity of this type of material among Russian buyers. But it is impossible to call the doors made of fiberboard durable, even if the panel is used correctly, it will not be possible to pass the inheritance to the next generation.

MDF - cloths from this material are significantly more expensive, but also stronger, more durable. MDF doors create excellent sound and heat insulation. Cloths are suitable for spaces with humidity above average.

Solid wood - Eco-friendly, strong, reliable and durable material for the manufacture of doors. But, unfortunately, you will have to pay a lot for high technological and aesthetic qualities. It is also important to consider the absolute environmental friendliness of the material.

Combined canvases. Very often, manufacturers create door leaves in the following way - the basis is an inexpensive and light wood species (for example, pine), and on top it is sheathed with veneer from more expensive and noble species. Due to this combination, it is possible not only to reduce the weight of the canvas, while maintaining high aesthetic qualities, but also to reduce the cost of the final product.

The color scheme and design for the interior fabric

So, you have decided on the exact dimensions of the door leafs, having previously made the necessary sizes, correlated your financial capabilities with the assortment of stores, choosing the specific material of execution - you just have to choose the design of the interior doors. And at this moment, you are faced with a real dilemma, because the range of modern stores is incredibly wide, not to mention the possibilities of creating an individual design of door leafs.

The choice of color for the execution of interior doors is not an idle question, because we set the paintings not for 1-2 years, but for decades (if everything goes well, and the doors will be used correctly). Obviously, everyone would like to have a harmonious atmosphere in the home itself, which will not be boring for many years, will be relevant, modern, but not intrusive. You can start from one simple decision - will your interior doors be accent elements (stand out against the general background) or merge with the color palette of the interior?

White color - universal option

If the rooms in your apartment or private house are medium or even small, if the walls have a simple, unobtrusive finish, and the whole interior is designed in a modern style, then white doors are the best option. Designers often recommend the choice of door leafs as a universal option. White color will not “indicate” the small dimensions of the space, it will act as an ideal background for other interior items, and will not focus on possible architectural flaws.

Light shades in the execution of door leafs are often used to combine with the facades of built-in cabinets. This technique is effective for any room, but is most often used in the bedroom (cloakroom facades) and the hallway.

A white door can also act as a contrasting element of the interior, if it is located against a dark or bright wall. In this case, snow-white most often executed not only the door leaf, but also the so-called platbands, moldings (ceiling and floor).

Dark accent in the interior - interior doors

Creating contrasting combinations is a condition of many stylistic trends in interior design. Dark door leafs help bring clarity and constructiveness to the image of the room, create some drama, but at the same time emphasize the shapes and lines of space. Doors of wenge color look rich, representative, creating a special atmosphere of success for the interior itself, and hence its owners.

One of the options for creating a harmonious, but at the same time contrasting interior is to combine a dark shade of the door with a similar solution for the facades of storage systems and other cabinet furniture against a light finish.

Bright color scheme for the door leaf

The bright color scheme of the interior door is a great way to bring emphasis to the interior of the living space. One of the options for the execution of door leafs in a bright color is a combination with the dominant element of the interior (for example, a bed in the bedroom or upholstery of a large sofa in the living room). But this task is not easy - you need to clearly get in tone. The easiest way is to create a single accent in the image of the room due to the bright color of the door leaf.

The original design or how to make the interior door a highlight of the interior

If standard door leaves in neutral tones is not your option, then you can safely bet on the original door leaf design. Interior doors occupy a lot of space in any interior, so the originality of execution will not go unnoticed. In fact, there are no restrictions in choosing the design of interior doors - everything is decided by your imagination and financial capabilities. But designers recommend listening to some recommendations for those who have all the interior doors facing the same common room (corridor or hallway):

all doors should have the same height (they can be of different widths, usually the linen in the bathroom and the kitchen room are smaller than standard products);
the doors can be made of different materials, but must have one design to maintain harmony in the interior of the common room (while the door leaf on the side of the room may have a different design and color scheme).

Any decorative elements allow not only to make the design of the door leaf more interesting, but also to connect it with other interior items. For example, any glass inserts make the design visually easier, more transparent. Not to mention the fact that glass inserts allow part of the light to pass into other rooms. For auxiliary spaces, such as an entrance hall and corridors (they in most standard apartments do not have their own sources of natural light), this aspect is important.

Transparent glass inserts will allow the maximum possible amount of sunlight to pass between isolated rooms, often the inserts are located from the bottom of the canvas, but this design is best avoided in houses and apartments with young children and active pets). If you need to maintain the privacy of the isolated room, but at the same time leave the possibility of penetration of part of the light fluxes, then use frosted or corrugated glass.

The original design of the door leaf can be achieved using an unusual shape. Obviously, most doors are represented by rectangles with a fairly standard set of combinations of length and width. But it is enough to replace the upper part of the door leaf with an arch vault and the product becomes original, introducing some mystery and elegance into the interior of the room.

The door leaf, decorated with wood carvings - in itself is capable of becoming the main decoration of the interior, its highlight. Of course, manual work is not a cheap pleasure. But the incredible, luxurious appearance of the doors, their exclusivity, can give a special charm to even the most ordinary interior. Not to mention the fact that woodcarving is an excellent design technique for demonstrating the commitment of the interior to one or another stylistic direction in the design of living spaces.
