There is an amazing number of different doors styles, shapes, themes, and materials available through a top door manufacturer. Even with a great selection, there may be times when custom doors are the best option, or the preferred option, for several reasons.
Making the decision to design your own custom doors doesn’t mean you have to be a designer, or even that you have any carpentry experience or understanding of necessary design elements. By choosing a company with a custom door design team you can share your ideas through notes, drawings or even sample pictures and they will create the draft, and continue to tweak it until it is just what you want.
Unusual Door Size
While custom doors are often specifically for aesthetic purposes, they can also be the only option for homes with atypical door sizes. This is often the case in custom designed homes or in historical homes.
In this type of situation, the custom door company may be able to use one of their existing door designs that are preferred by the customer as a template for the new door. Or, of course, the customer can design a completely new look.
For many of the older styles of garages and outbuildings, custom doors will also be a requirement, both for walk-in types of doors as well as overhead garage doors or traditional swing-out garage doors. Often, finding replacement doors for older homes and garages is simply not possible by shopping at building supply stores or retail home design stores.
Elements from Different Designs
Sometimes people will find that they like design elements from several different doors and use these as a way to create an ideal door for their home. By combining different design features from existing doors, you can tailor the door to reflect your tastes while also creating a unique and original door for your front, side or back entrance.
When working with a top design team, they can help to make the elements flow together and look balanced within your design. They may even have some ideas to include that you had not considered as essential to the design.
It is important to realize that custom doors will take longer to arrive than an in-stock door, but they are also well worth the wait. Just make sure to work with a company with years of experience in the custom door manufacturing industry to ensure you get just the door you want.
