Modern Closet Doors For Home Renovations | Real Estate Blog

Closets are must haves in any home that requires additional space. Aside from providing additional storage space where you can keep your belongings, the closet can also add a cosmetic touch to any room décor. Now, closets come in versatile models, shapes and colors.

An integral part of closets are doors. Modern closet doors have 2 elementary functions. First, they ensure that your belongings are kept inside an enclosed and secured space. Second, a closet door can enhance the appearance of any room because it comes in many attractive and stylish designs.

If space is an issue in your room, then a folding, accordion or bi fold doors are your options. Any of these door types gives you with complete admittance to the interior of your closet without the need to clear a space in front of your closet every time you open it.

To make your replacement closet door part of your room décor, you can choose a sliding door. The sliding effect of the door can give your room a sophisticated look. A sliding door is the perfect alternative to have for a walkin closet.

Sliding doors are smart home design details

A sliding door — say, a door of planks hanging from exposed hardware — transforms a room. It’s so eye-catching, so unexpected, that it invites closer looks. It brings smiles.

There are also practical reasons for choosing sliding doors. They can be larger — taller, wider and heavier — than hinged doors. They don’t require open floor space like swinging doors. But mostly, architects and designers love them for their looks.

A sliding door softens a formal room, said Emily Bourgeois, a Charlotte, N.C., designer who used sliding pantry doors in an award-winning kitchen she created for a Charlotte townhouse. The doors were painted a vivid blue and featured exposed hardware.

Any door delivers a message about the space, she said. “So what’s it saying? Let’s all sit up straight? Or please feel free to put your feet on the table?”

Architect Ken Pursley says a large sliding door doesn’t just create an opening in a wall — when opened, it removes the wall. And, like Bourgeois, he appreciates the look: “There is a charm to it. It ‘de-suburbanizes’ the door.”
