Looking to give your home a makeover? When getting a house ready to sell, a new set of doors or cabinets can go a long way towards helping your home sell itself the first day on the market.
In contrast, perhaps you’ve just bought a home and you want to stylize it to your personal tastes. Replacing old doors is a great way to help increase soundproofing and give your home a fresh look. It doesn’t matter if you’re replacing a door that is older or newer, what’s most important is making sure you get affordable interior doors while making sure you don’t skimp on quality.
Now that we know we’re replacing our doors, the question remains–should they match?
Overall Style
In most homes, interior doors match. This wasn’t done with only aesthetics in mind, it was also a choice of the homebuilder who probably had a standard, low-cost door installed in all the homes they built.
Adding a unique door gives you the ability to stylize specific rooms and add a distinctive character to the room that is felt from the moment you walk in.
In many homes that have a unique door here or there, you’ll see that bathroom and closet doors are typically the same. Similarly, bedrooms that are not the master bedroom might have matching doors. The master bedroom, being the personal haven within a home, may have a unique door to accent its character.
What does room size have to do with it? Having an all-white interior with a matching white door can help a room to feel larger than it is.
Similarly, having all-white walls inside a large room can make it feel too large or too empty. Using a darker door with darker trim can help to break up the monotony of all-white walls and force the eye to focus on other places. Making these decisions are as important as ensuring interior doors open left or right according to the layout of the room.
Looks From the Inside Rather Than the Outside
When choosing to add a unique door to a room, it’s important to consider what the door looks like, not only from the outside, but from the inside, as well. You’ll also want to choose a corresponding trim color so that a door that is darker doesn’t clash with white walls.
In many rooms, simply changing the trim color can help a room stand out from the rest and add a sense of aesthetic charm. However, having matching trim can be great if you want it to blend into the wall so you can take the focus off the trim and onto a piece of art or other decorative space in your home.
