Choose the style around the room and the whole house

Internal doors repeat through hallways and connected rooms, so consistency matters. You can use one door family throughout while changing glazing or privacy hardware where needed.

Common internal styles

  • Panel doors for a more detailed or traditional look
  • Flush doors for a simple flat appearance
  • Glazed doors to share light between spaces
  • Painted doors for flexible colour matching
  • Timber or veneered finishes for visible wood character
  • Double or French-style internal doors for wider openings

Proportion matters as much as decoration

Panel size, rail positions and glazing lines should look balanced with the door height and nearby joinery. Very tall or unusual openings may need a design made for that proportion rather than a stretched standard pattern.

Use hardware and frames to complete the style

A modern flush door with traditional trim can feel inconsistent, and the reverse can also be true. Consider the door leaf, frame, architrave, handle and finish as one composition.
