How do you judge a book? By its cover, you say. What about a person? By his dressing sense, you might answer. And what about a house on a street filled with similar looking houses? Confused about this one? Well you should be, as how is someone supposed to give his verdict about a house that looks just like any other house on the street.
So how can one break this monotony without making his house look like a hippy resort? Well in many places people can’t paint their houses just for the sake of making the street look similar in tone with each other. So how to make your house stand out and that too without having to splurge heavily on paint job?
Well the answer lies in the entrance to your house. We are talking about the Door that welcomes your guests into the place you call your own little world.
To start with, a Door might seem just a simple slab of wood or metal that guards your house from unwanted intervention. But if you think about it. A door is the cover of your house that you might get judged by. Because it happens to be the first and foremost thing that people see when they visit you.
And there happens to be a whole new range of doors in the market today. Like Dutch door, saloon door, composite doors Edinburgh, blind door, French door, louvered door, flush door, moulded door, ledge door, bifold door, sliding glass door, false door and internal glass doors UK. And all these could be further of two types namely Pre hung doorset and Slab doors.
Lets talk about Pre hung doorset first, these are fully self contained door units. Which can be opened and closed even without them being fitted in any house (but better not try it). It consists of three separate but joint portions which are a door slab (the door as we know it), hinges and a frame (the part that fits in the wall opening for a door). And this pre assembled door has many benefits to offer. It being useful when there exists no door frame or when the existing door frame is damaged. It is highly useful when new construction is to be undertaken or extensive remodelling is to be done. Because if a door frame is open and exposed you may find it easier to install a Pre hung doorset than a Slab door. Also these doors come weather tight off the shelf so you don’t need anything to make their fitting any tighter.
Next we come to Slab doors. These are the basic doors that we see everyday and doesn’t have much to talk about. Its just one part of the Pre hung doorset in case you compare the two.
So whatever be your choice, a French door or composite doors Edinburgh. And whatever the style be, Pre hung or Slab. Just remember to choose it wisely.
