4 Ways To Upgrade Your Home With Gorgeous Iron Doors

Posted on

Iron is more than just strong. It can also be beautiful. Artists have been expressing themselves in iron for centuries. You can use this creative and lovely form of art to make your home more elegant and alluring. Here are four types of doors that will look amazing in iron while adding value and appeal to your home.

Front Doors

Make an elegant statement with a beautiful front door made from iron. Iron scroll work is impressive in the inset of front doors. This is especially pretty with double doors or arched doors. With front doors like this, your guests will feel like they are walking into a sophisticated space where they will be attended to like royalty. 

Interior Doors

You can use iron doors to add a more decorative style to the interior of your home as well. Wrought iron doors give a romantic look to a bedroom and are stunning at the entrance to a formal dining area. Use iron doors with windows to separate two spaces, such as a living area and a playroom or at the entrance to a mother-in-law suite or a guest apartment. 

Decorative Doors

Sometimes doors on homes are simply present for decorative purposes and don't function as doors at all. For example, you might see a decorative door on the second floor of a house with a balcony or on the side of a home as an accent to a garden. 

When you are using a door for decoration alone, iron is a great choice. Your iron decorative door will draw attention and give your home a more artistic and creative look. You can use decorative iron doors to create a medieval or Gothic flair to your home or to make your single story home look larger. 

Patio Doors

When you have an impressive garden, you need a stunning door leading to it. Double iron doors are beautiful when swung open onto a patio that is surrounded by a wonderful garden. You can repeat the element in wrought iron gates that lead to various areas of your garden or by surrounding your yard with decorative iron fencing. 

You can also use iron patio doors to welcome guests into your outdoor living area. These doors look amazing when opening toward a lighted dining space or a backyard pool. 

Iron doors are excellent additions that add style and creativity to a home. Use iron doors to dress up or personalize your home, and you will fall in love with the look.
