#architecture101 : Doors

One of the most important inventions in archtecture is the humble door. Whether for initial impression of a beautifully crafted front door, or a well placed security door for that added touch of safety in your home, that form an integral part of what we interact with on a daily basis. Here are some door styles you need to know:

 

Traditional Doors

Traditional doors are styles in such a way that you often find they have glass panel inserts, scrollwork and in some cases, colored panes. They often also have raising inserts which make them distinctive and quite beautiful.

 

Craftsmans Doors

Usually of a wood of fiberglass construction, these doors are characterised by a top window, which may have a single or multiple panes.

 

Modern Doors

Contemporary styling dictates that these doors often have single long panes on a side of the frame or in the door, made of many different materials they are normally quite cleanly styled with straight lines.

 

Rustic Doors

These doors are normally older, or at least styled to look order. They are thick and heavy, and normally crafted from wood or metal.

 

Arched Doors

Arched doors are the most distinctive, and can exist throughout the other styles, with window panes, or large heavy double wooden doors with a wide archway for a spacious, open feel.

 

What timeline can you put on installing a door?

Installing a door has to be exact and precise, because an incorrect measurement can lead to a badly fitting door. Firstly, you will need to accurately measure your frame area, and ensure that you accurately record your height and width. If you are replacing and resizing a door, you need to fit into the space you are considering resizing-this is often costly and time consuming, so it isn’t recommended that you try this unless absolutely necessary.

 

A timeframe for replacing a door is normally measured by the amount of hours required for a crew to install it, which can vary depending on the variables such as weight, size, and dimensions of the door. For a standard, single, prehung door, the average time is between 2.5-4 hours, with a crew of 1 or 2 people installing it. A double hung door with windows normally has the longest install time with an installation crew 1 larger than that required for a standard door.
