Adding luxury doors with premium features to your property can significantly enhance the overall sense of exclusivity, ambiance and sense of style, but it’s important to plan in advance and consider doors during the design phase to ensure the chosen design works well and complements other features and materials that share the same space.
Here are some effective ways to upgrade your doors and give your property more high-end appeal.
Choose premium luxury materials
A door with a solid core construction and quality timber is more durable and provides heavyweight performance that delivers a premium quality feeling every time it is used, this ensures the luxury interior door feeling is not merely skin deep.
Luxury door finishes
Choose a high-quality wood veneer for your doors, rather than a laminate or a standard wood. There are many different natural wood grains to choose from Walnut to Etimoe and different varieties of Oak. For more exclusivity consider stained oaks or exotic woods like ebony. These rich materials exude elegance and sophistication, making a bold statement from the outset. Depending on your budget you could consider incorporating something truly unique such as liquid metal panels, leather or even painted murals.
Other Bespeak Door features
Panelled doors can provide a property with a traditional look and usually complement luxury properties well. Custom decorative beading around the panels can be tailored to give the door a more prestigious appearance or a more modern twist. Metal inlays in gold or polished chrome for example add a luxury touch that make the doors more of a stand-out feature of any room. Alternatively, wood veneers can be arranged in alternating patterns to add interest, depth and texture to the door.

Incorporate luxury handles and hardware into any luxury doors
Replace standard door handles or doorknobs with elegant pieces with luxury finishes such as satin brass or matt bronze. These refined accents enhance the overall appearance and add a touch of elegance. Door handles and knobs are available in hundreds of designs and a wide range of finishes. It is important to choose a design that matches the door and, for a consistent appearance, choose hardware such as latch plates and hinges in the same finish.
Embrace glass accents
Use large glazed doors to infuse a sense of openness, sophistication and luxury to the property. Glazed doors increase the flow of natural of light making the internal space seem larger and brighter. Lattice doors incorporate delightful lattice work and glass panels in a wide range of designs for a super sophisticated look. Alternatively steel framed doors are a popular way to add a sense of space.
