Three Things to Think About Before Purchasing Your Internal Doors
September 25, 2015
“Buying internal doors for the home? Some points to consider first”

Bifold Doors UK offer a wide range of internal doors for your home. Our internal doors are suitable for cottages, listed buildings, mansions and countryside manors, as well as offices and commercial areas.

Whether you are looking for a traditional or contemporary look, our internal doors can suit most properties.
But what should you consider before purchasing your internal doors? Here are the three main considerations you should think about before purchasing your internal doors.

Budget: Timber or Oak?

At Bifold Doors UK, we manufacture bespoke internal wooden doors in timber and oak. Oak is generally more expensive than timber and, therefore, you may wish to consider your budget before you decide on the material of your internal doors.
If you can afford it, oak internal doors offer the ultimate in luxurious living. Oak is generally agreed to be a beautiful wood and is the recommended choice for listed properties and traditional buildings with an historic feel.

Timber is less expensive and, in effect, less prestigious, but is still a high-quality product. Timber looks much more impressive in comparison to PVC internal doors and is a great alternative to aluminium if you do not want aluminium internal doors in your property.
It is worth noting that, at Windows Doors UK, we offer a complete colour and stain range for doors in both hardwoods and softwoods. Therefore, if you decided to opt for timber, you may wish for the timber to be stained in an oak effect.

Whether you are looking for oak or timber internal doors, our joinery makes all internal doors directly from FSC sustainable hardwoods and softwoods. That means, you will be getting a high-quality, luxury and environmentally-friendly product, whether your budget leads you to purchase timber or oak.

Style: There’s no limitations at Bifold Doors UK

Before purchasing your internal doors, you will need to consider the style of your property and the type of internal door that would suit it.
Some people, for example, may opt for glass sheets in the door to make the property lighter and add a more open-plan feel. Others may choose style with no glass or, perhaps, internal French doors.

We recommend that your internal doors have an in-keeping theme, where possible, to ensure your property has a sophisticated and elegant style. That said, there may be certain rooms where a different internal door would work well. For example, bedrooms tend to benefit from solid hardwood doors, whereas a kitchen or lounge could have a more sociable feel with an internal door that features a glass pane.

Don’t forget! We can make plenty more internal door styles, as well as bespoke internal doors, for doors that are suited perfectly to you and your property.Â

Ironmongery

Handles and locks are important for both the aesthetic and security of your internal doors.
At Bifold Doors UK, we offer an extensive range of ironmongery shapes, styles and colours, and can sometimes even produce bespoke ironmongery options too!
