Glazed or solid interior doors? Advantages and disadvantages
One of the first questions when choosing is whether you want solid or glazed interior doors. It is not only about looks: the decision also affects the amount of light in the flat, privacy and how well the doors dampen sound.
Glazed doors: more light
Glass in the leaf lets daylight through. It therefore suits windowless hallways, the living room, kitchen or dining room in particular. The hallway then does not look dark and the space appears larger. The glazing can be full-surface, in strips or in smaller panes, depending on the model.
Solid doors: privacy and peace
Solid doors suit bedrooms, children’s rooms, a study, the bathroom and the toilet better. They ensure privacy and dampen sound better. Depending on the category, the inside of solid doors consists of solid wood, hollow-core chipboard or paper honeycomb. The core is always made of spruce wood.
A combination in one flat
Solid and glazed doors of the same model and decor are commonly combined. The flat then looks uniform, yet every room has what it needs. In our range you will find more than 100 types of doors in 40 decors, divided into 8 categories. You can view them all in the door visualizer or in the photo gallery.
