Contemporary Style

For this new bungalow, we selected a contemporary door style to complement the clean, modern interiors. The white doors feature distinctive grooved ladder panels, paired with contrasting matt black handles. Combining style and practicality, the handles have a knurled finish, creating a subtle textured surface that improves grip while adding an industrial-inspired touch with a luxurious feel.

Space-Saving Pocket Doors

Pocket doors have also been incorporated into several rooms, providing a practical solution where space is at a premium. Unlike conventional hinged doors, pocket doors slide neatly into a cavity within the wall when opened, helping to maximise usable floor space. As well as creating a streamlined look, they can improve the flow between rooms and provide greater flexibility when planning and using the home’s interiors. Matt black, flush circular door pulls complete the contemporary look.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a pocket door?

A pocket door is a door that slides into a cavity within the wall, rather than swinging into the room, and is therefore hidden from view when open.

What are the benefits of pocket doors?

Pocket doors save floor space, improve movement between rooms and provide greater flexibility when designing your home’s layout.

What is a knurled finish?

A knurled finish on a door handle is a textured pattern applied to the surface, providing additional grip, which is useful if your hands are wet or greasy, while creating a distinctive, contemporary appearance.

How do I choose interior doors for a self-build home?

Consider the home’s architectural style, interior scheme, available space and practical requirements. Door style, colour, finish and hardware can all be coordinated to create a cohesive look. Choose doors that complement the overall style of your home; contemporary homes may suit minimalist or grooved designs, while traditional properties can work well with panelled or cottage-style doors.

What door handles should I choose?

Door handles should complement the style and finish of your doors and other interior fittings. Matt black, brass and chrome are popular choices for contemporary interiors.
