BLOG/ Panelled Doors: A trend full of beauty and authenticity!

Panelled doors are a classic style that have recently made a come back in home design. Their classic look contributes to the current desire for both simplicity and elegance.

Panelled doors suit many different types of interior and will please the eye with their symmetry. With its geometrical shapes, a panelled door provides a sense of harmony and balance to any room. 

What are a panelled doors?

The construction of a panelled door is a bit different than a slab door. Whereas a slab door has a flat, smooth exterior and is made up of solid wood, a panelled door is made up of stiles and rails.

A stile is the wood that is positioned vertically up the door. The rails are the lengths of wood that run horizontally across a door. This creates a frame for the panels, which eventually fit between the stiles and rails to complete the door. 

Unlike slab doors, the panels in a panelled door are able to expand and contract with shifts in humidity, which can actually extend the longevity of the door. 

The construction of a panelled door allows for a diversity of looks, ranging from inverted panels to multiple panels on a door. Panelled doors can be constructed with 1 panel or many panels in a variety of patterns and designs.
