Custom interior doors

Professional interior designers often use non-standard interior doors in their projects, as they visually expand and transform the space. Large doors are usually distinguished by their height: 210, 220 or 230 cm and especially caught on in the industrial loft and classics. They are chosen in case the doorway is non-standard: above or below 2 meters or wider than 90 cm. Non-standard doors differ not only in size, but also in the type of opening, which is rotary, sliding, pendulum, folding.

Non-standard doors create an original interior and stand out noticeably against the background of the rest of the decoration and furniture.Some buyers deliberately choose high doors to transform the internal space of the house, others - because they have no other choice. Too high apertures can not always be artificially reduced or the owners of the house do not want to breed dirty work in their own home and do redevelopment, narrowing the aperture. And the unreliable plasterboard block in the opening does not suit them.

The only correct way is to buy non-standard doors.

Their advantages:

• Visually change the space: make the ceilings higher, the walls - wider;
• They create an accent in the room and advantageously emphasize its proportions;
• Do not require artificial narrowing or reduction of the aperture;
• High canvases are chosen by tall people - more than 2 meters to walk through the opening comfortably.

Among the minuses of too high or wide canvases, we note that they are:

• Made to order, it means that the finished door is almost impossible to purchase on the same day and will have to wait until they are produced at the factory;
• Will cost, on average, 30% more expensive than the usual standard canvas;
• Differ in big weight, especially if the door is made of 100% of the massif of a tree.In this case, you need to further strengthen the opening or, at least, to make sure of its strength - call a master gager or other competent specialist.

Non-standard interior doors have one significant pros: they look excellent in the interior of the house, especially in combination with high ceilings. Agree that with its height of three to four meters, ordinary two-meter doors will simply be lost. A 230 cm model will look good.

Non-standard doors are not only great webs., but also unusual in design, the way of opening the model. Fully glass doors unite the space of the dining room and kitchen or bedroom and dressing room. Bright transform the monochrome interior. The type of door opening is also different, and the sliding construction or hidden canvas without a box and platbands in the color of the wall has recently become popular.

The standard height of an interior door is 2000 mm, or 200 cm. Everything that is larger or smaller than this value is called non-standard canvases: 180, 190, 210, 220 and 230 cm.

The standard width of the interior linen: 60, 70, 80 and 90 cm. Some manufacturers call the standard canvas 40 cm wide or 190 cm high, but not all.These figures are Russian standard, which may differ from European ones.

Box, trim for non-standard height or width of the canvas is made to order with the door. Dobory can be included in the package - wooden panels that cover the wall on the inner side and on the side of the box. If the wall thickness is more than 10 cm, then they will be needed. Their thickness depends on the size of the wall, and the minimum width of the finishing panel is 3 cm.

The standard height of the opening for the entrance door is determined by 2070-2370 mm or 2000-2300 mm by the height of the canvas itself. Width - 900 mm, but not less.

It is considered the norm the width of the entrance door in 1000 mm (100 cm), if it is single. One-and-a-half doors have a width of 1300, 1500 and 1540 mm, double doors - 1900 and 1940 mm.

Non-standard doors are classified on entrance and interroom. Entrance models to a private house are usually wider and higher than their counterparts in an apartment. Doors for a country house are made to order, if the height of the opening is more than 2370 mm or the width is more than 1000 mm for a single door model.

Interior doors differ in the type of opening.

Non-standard designs include:

• Sliding with one or two doors;
• Swing double;
• Radius: open as a coupe, but their rails are C-shaped;
• Pendulum: open in both directions - back and forth, for which they got their name.

The doors differ in shape: rectangular - standard, arched - non-standard. Often it is the arched openings that require fabrication to order, because manufacturers for the warehouse do not make semi-circular cloths. It is important to correctly take measurements from a rounded opening and create a door that is perfect in shape and parameters, since it is known that the angle of bending of the opening will differ when the width of the opening is 60 and 90 cm.

Interior doors are classified according to the basic material and there are wooden, plastic, glass.

Wooden doors are also different: it can be 100% solid wood or wooden frame inside the canvas. The doors can be lined with natural material - veneer or synthetic - ekoshpon, PVC, this also includes painted models (coated with enamel).

Doors from the massif of a tree differ in big weight, and the non-standard 230 cm high will weigh more than a two-meter cloth. Before buying and installing them, you need to assess the quality of the openings and answer the question whether it will withstand a massive structure. For evaluation invite a qualified wizard.If the door weighs more than 50-70 kg, you will need to buy reinforced hinges.

Lightweight doors made of solid pine or hollow models are also made to order by individual measurements and differ in completely standard weight - up to 40 kg. Fully glass made from tempered glass - a material resistant to mechanical damage, shock. Even if such a canvas is broken, its fragments are unlikely to hurt someone, they will be too small and dull, or, conversely, large and relatively safe. How the glass will behave in the event of an impact, the manufacturer can predict, based on the production technology.

Plastic doors are placed on the balcony, loggia, in the bathroom or storage room, bath, garage. If the plastic web is more than 2 meters long and 90 cm wide, choose a sturdy model with two or more cameras.

Depending on the area and layout of the apartment, interior doors of a particular size, shape, opening method and construction as a whole are chosen.

If the openings are standard in height and width, attention will be paid to those opening systems that will save space in it: sliding, folding, rotor doors.A sliding single or double door can be afforded if the width of the wall is greater than the width of the aperture, that is, it can be “thrown open” into this square, or the door can be pushed. If there is no additional space for a sliding canvas on the wall, then the choice falls on folding or rotary doors. Folding canvas consists of 2-3 shutters, which form a complete door. Its main disadvantage is low noise and heat insulation. In addition, the canvas is folded "accordion" and takes part of the opening.

Rotor opening system is good for any size of room, width and height of the opening. The rotor door does not eat up the useful area of ​​the apartment when opening, as a hinged door, does not occupy the opening and the wall, as a folding and hinged door, respectively. But it will cost more than all the opening systems presented.

The size of the openings is different from generally accepted standards: you have to make doors to order. Completely wooden or canvases from 100% solid wood are of excellent quality, functionality, practicality, serve about 50 years, but are expensive. Alternative - shponirovanny, inside which solid pine,outside - natural veneer. Such a canvas does not externally differ from an array of wood, but varies considerably in weight and cost. Plus veneer - in its environmental and aesthetic appearance. Minus - in the possible high price for a set of doors.

If the budget for the purchase of non-standard doors is limited, pay attention to the artificial surface: ekoshpon, PVC, lamination or enamel. Eco-shears are distinguished by high strength and external similarity with natural wood. PVC is a film that is resistant to damage and temperature, humidity. PVC models are usually the cheapest on the market. Laminated canvases have an artificial external coating of high strength and benefit from the fact that they differ in gamma and texture. Coating enamel fire resistant and at the same time aesthetic. It can be bright and you can paint, change or adjust the color of the canvas.

Hollow doors, inside of which there is a timber frame and cardboard filler, poorly isolate noise, but are lighter in weight. They are chosen in case the opening is not strong enough or artificially narrowed with thin wooden panels or when it is necessary to visually divide the room.

A doorway wider 95-100 cm attributed to non-standard. And there are several options for its arrangement: you can pick up two standard widths on the canvas; the design of their opening can be swing or sliding. One swing leaf may be wider than the second, which will not open. You can order a single wide canvas, for example, 110 cm, and install it in the opening.

A narrow opening is considered to be less than 60 cm wide. Cloth 40 cm can stand in the bathroom or kitchen, pantry or dressing room. You can beat it in the following way: put a door 210, 220 or 230 cm high and play on the contrast. Unusual solution - the invisible door without a box and platbands, which visually merges with the wall and is visible only when opening

In this case, choose fully or partially glass doors. Glass visually increases the area of ​​the dwelling, makes it light. Often, openings are made in the form of an arch, then both the canvas and the box will be rounded in shape.

Plastic doors are usually installed on the balcony, loggia, dressing room, pantry, bath or sauna, rarely - as interior. If the opening in a room is wider or higher than the standard one, choose robust two- or three-chamber structures so that the door does not “lead”, it will not be deformed during operation.

High doors to the ceiling create a feeling of greater space and visually add a couple of squares to the room. At the same time, the standard canvases are quite compatible with too high in the conditions of one apartment and one corridor, they create an accent.

In the classical interior, the arched shape and two swing doors look particularly good. They are appropriate to put in the dining room or living room, kitchen or common room.

A tall and too narrow door looks original and practical, if instead of a hinged one, choose a rotor opening or pivoting system.

The double-door entrance door for a country house looks great, especially if its shape resembles an arch. Arched models are always associated with classics and high prices, and in addition to broad functionality, they have external aesthetics.

If we speak not only about the size and shape of the canvas, but also about the type of its opening, then rotor systems are unusual. The rotor door is held on one “hinge” and opens inside the opening, unlike the swing door. It has a wide functionality: it saves the space of a small room and does not slam from a sharp and accidental gust of wind. It is aesthetic in appearance.

Invisible doors are original in their own way: they have no visible box and platbands, hinges and literally merge with the wall. In dynamic and ultramodern interiors, they are no longer without them.
