Change a Window to a Door

This one simple change can dramatically improve the use of your home. Make better use of outdoor space or improve your security. You’ll want to call a pro who can help design your new layout and install your new door or window. There are many options when it comes to creating a unique, functional look.

Upgrade your Closet Door

Though you may not think of your closet door often, it’s a great opportunity to add a unique look to your bedroom. Often, these areas go unused as design elements and remain just doors but they are typically a large feature in a room and can be helpful to hide extra storage and items in your closet. If you’re thinking about starting new, this may require more than just a coat of paint and a little bit of time. You’ll want to call Westchester carpenters who can help install your new door, especially if it’s a sliding closet door where work will need to be done to the existing door structure or wall. A new closet door can be an instant update to your bedroom.

Sliding Barn Door

Sliding doors are a great way to save space in a room. They don’t fold out like a traditional accordion door, so you instantly create more usable space. If you love the rustic look, a sliding barn door will help you achieve that look. Distressed wood doors are another option that helps achieve a rustic look. With sliding doors, there are typically two options. One option is to have your door slide into the wall or a “pocket door.” These disappear into the wall so it’s completely out of the way when needed. The second option is to hang the door with a closet door roller kit, where the door slides outside of the wall.

French Doors

If you need a room update that will never go out of style, French doors is what you’re looking for! French doors open outward into the room leaving a large space for you to look through. Try painting it a sleek white to keep your French closet doors looking clean and timeless.

Modern Glass Doors

Rooms with a contemporary look will benefit from a modern glass door. Frosted glass sliding doors are a popular option for homeowners who want to add light but not give up privacy while giving a new look to their room. Layered glass works just as well and can often be framed as a traditional door with wood.

The Bifold Closet Door

Fall in love again with the traditional look of bifold closet doors. These space-saving doors can be accented with molding or painted and decorated to create a unique style.
