Why Choose Bespoke Doors?

Why Choose Bespoke Doors?

Made to measure doors provide a great opportunity for home interior enthusiasts to meet their project ideas and desires. Bespoke doors offer more flexibility, freedom and innovation – so when it comes to design, we all know how important those three factors are! Internal and exterior doors have a major impact on rooms, contributing to the look and most importantly, the feel of a room.

It’s no doubt that we all take pride in our own interior, we like to possess quality and showcase character all throughout our homes so when visitors arrive, they feel welcome by style and design.

Bespoke doors are commonly used for large development projects by architects and developers, simply because standard doors will not fit! And what’s worse, re-designing part of a development project just to fit a standard door, or opting for a bespoke solution which allows for versatility, creativity and high quality?

Flexible Sizes

Well, that’s what bespoke is…made to measure, custom specifications, you get it! For both internal and external doors, they can be tailored to meet your exact specifications. So, you don’t need to worry if you don’t have the standard size door frame for a door to be installed in, you can just create your own, and it’s easier than you probably think!

Pick Your Own Door Finish

If you’ve been on the lookout for your very own perfect door finish, a bespoke service provides you with a range of options and extras so you can customise it, and ensure it reaches its full potential. Door finishes have the ability to bring out the natural beauty in wooden and oak doors so the finished product is certainly one to remember. Below are a few different types of door finishes that are most popular:

Unfinished doors: Unfinished bespoke doors offer somewhat more adaptability because you as the consumer, can choose and then apply your own finish. Ultimately, you are in charge of providing the finish to the door. This is common with individuals who would like more flexibility, and because the colour they want the door to be finished in, is not available on the shelf.

Prefinished doors: If you opt for a prefinished door, all the hard work is pretty much done for you. The finish, whether it be with paint, wax or varnish is already applied before installation.

Although prefinished and unfinished doors are the most popular type of finishes for internal doors, other finishes could be primed or textured. To determine what kind of finish would suit the door and your current interior, the right colour is essential.

Let’s look at it this way – if you have a white, spacious living room, you won’t go for walnut style doors over white primed doors OR if you had a 1930’s style cottage with an oak interior, you wouldn’t choose to go for a 4-panel shaker door. (Well, we hope not anyway).

Performance

Now, this goes for all kinds of new doors, but with old doors comes quite a few disadvantages. The quality, craftsmanship and material of doors in the market contribute massively to how well they perform in different kinds of situations – whether it be extreme heat, the cold or even a fire. With a bespoke door solution, you can choose to add extras which can help improve the overall performance of the door. For example, fire rated strips and seals, fire rated door handles, hinges and lots more. Basic fire door requirements can be found in this useful PDF.

Overall, a bespoke door service provides more attention to detail and quality. If you’re one to strive on the challenges of re-developments or interior design elements in your home, you should see how well bespoke doors perform, not only technically but with visitors too! A unique door turns more heads and inspires others interiors too, so it’s a win all around!
