Types of Interior Doors

• Interior doors come in several types, each with unique characteristics and benefits. Let’s explore the most common options for homeowners.

• Solid Core Doors

• ● Solid core doors (#1) are durable insulators. They typically consist of a wood or medium-density fiberboard (MDF) frame filled with a solid core material made of particleboard, wood fiber, or other composite materials.

• Molded MDF skins cover the front and back of the glued-together frame, creating a smooth surface. The solid core provides sound absorption and density, making these doors ideal for areas where privacy and noise reduction are important, like your bedrooms or home office.

• Hollow Core Doors

• ● Hollow core doors (#1) are a lightweight and affordable option. Similar to solid core doors, hollow core doors have a frame covered by MDF or wood veneer skins. However, the interior is either empty or filled with a cardboard honeycomb structure to prevent flexing, so they aren’t as useful for sound reduction. Still, they are easier to handle and install. They’re most suitable for closets, pantries, or areas where sound insulation is less critical.

• Solid Stile and Rail Doors

• ● Solid stile and rail doors (#2) offer a traditional look and superior strength. These doors are made with vertical stiles and horizontal rails made of engineered or solid wood, occasionally MDF. The components are held together with glue and dowels, creating a sturdy frame. Panels, usually made of MDF, fit within this frame and often feature better milled details than molded doors. The door’s face can be finished with wood veneer or a smooth layer of MDF. While more expensive than others, these doors have a classic appearance and long lifespan.

Benefits of Awning Windows

● Awning windows are versatile and can be ideal for several locations in your home. Homeowners often place their awning windows in their bathrooms, bedrooms, kitchen, and sometimes paired with a fixed window.

● Awning windows are great for bathrooms! When the steam from a hot shower starts to take over the bathroom, you can simply open your awning window. This is when hot, stagnant air flow is guided out of your bathroom and more air can circulate. Another great location for awning windows is the bedroom. You can peacefully enjoy the breeze from a rainy day while listening to the soothing sounds of rain.

What are Thermally Broken Windows?

● When we speak of a thermal break, think of a protective border between the outside part of the window frame and the inside. This specially-made insulator helps to make sure that even when the external part of the frame is freezing, the internal part won’t. It stops condensation and thin ice from piling up on the inside and even the furniture and upholstery will be defended from dampness.

● The word break has nothing to do with something getting damaged. It simply refers to the separation or a space between the two pieces of metal in the frame. The thermal aspect has to do with the temperature-balancing nature of the ‘break.’ This is an innovation that arose from the need to have a better insulation solution for metallic windows in homes, and that’s the whole idea.
