Modern Interior Doors - Contemporary European Doors
When an ordinary Interior Door is not enough
We are a European Door supplier located in British Columbia, Canada. We crate and ship our modern interior doors North America wide.
We supply an Interior Door System that is quite different from the standard North American Interior Door Design. European Doors feature a wide variety of beautifully designed door surfaces to give you a door that not only performs but catches your attention. We believe an interior door should look stunning while at the same time have the performance that you need. Beauty and Functionality can really go hand in hand when it comes to European Interior Doors.
Sound Transmission of Modern European Doors
With Rebated Door Edges, Soft-Close door frame gaskets and bottom floor seals noise is reduced from room to room. Our Interior Doors can achieve a 37dB rating which is the necessary rating in many schools, hospitals, auditoriums and many other sound-sensitive buildings. When you compare this to the 17dB rating of the standard hollow core North American Interior Door, the difference in quality becomes apparent. There are many instances where you want an interior door to block sound, especially in bedrooms or sound studios.
Insulation in European Doors
Our Thermo-Insulated interior doors are foam filled and reduce heat transfer. Combine this with a rebated door edge (as seen in the cross-section picture below), you provide even less chance for heat to transfer from one side to the other. This is perfect for Wine Cellar Doors or other Cold Storage areas in the home. The other practical use of such doors is to reduce heat transfer between the garage and the house.
Visual Design of European Doors
This is where Modern Interior Doors from Europe really shine. There are an incredible amount of designs available. Not only the amount of modern door designs but also the colours and wood grain options are astounding. North American traditional doors cannot even come close and you are lucky if can find 10 different interior door designs in your average hardware store - and, mind you, none of these North American options will ever be fully finished with Stain or Paint.
Surface options of European Doors range from real wood to laminate to metal surfaces and of course paints and lacquers. You have the option to choose between simple, yet elegant flush doors or maybe metal inlay doors with modern horizontal lines. Gone are the days where you could only pick from 2 glass sizes (full-light glass or half-light glass). With our Modern Interior Doors you have more than 20 different glass sizes and shapes to choose from. Needless to say, you have a range of modern door designs to choose from including totally frameless doors.

Functionality of Modern Interior Doors from Europe
- Some of our Modern Interior Door's unique features are:
- Mortise locks instead of 2 1/8" boring. The advantage here is that Mortise locks are stronger and the visual effect is a big step up from standard North American door knobs.
- Adjustable Slim-Line Hinges instead of non-adjustable butterfly hinges. The advantage is that there is a fast and precise way to move the door panel up and down after the interior door is hung in the opening.
- Door Frame Gaskets all around the perimeter instead of no gasket in US doors. The advantage here is that light will not penetrate a weather stripped door frame as easily as it will its non weather stripped counterpart. Also, adding a gasket to the frame reduces unwanted smells as well as causes the door panel to close nearly silently.
- Concealed or Hidden Door Frames that allow you to have a frameless and trimless interior door. This is highly valuable in Modern Architecture and Design. With the use of a Flush Door Panel you can almost make your doors invisible.
- Modern Barn Door Tracks in Stainless Steel or Aluminium or even a matching finish that complements the door panel. You have the option of Concealed Barn Door Tracks that hide behind the door panel during its sliding operation.
- Foldable Door Panels that allow you to open your door without taking up the whole width of the door panel. This is a great advantage in narrow hallways and closets. With apartments getting smaller in the big cities of the world, there is a need for practical door solutions such as a foldable door panel.
- Glass Transoms and Side-Lights can now also be done inside your home. You can combine any door finish and glass type to to create a large and bright opening. Perfect for rooms that require more light and, of course, modern design in apartments and lofts.
- Lowerable Floor Seals in Interior Doors are seldom used in North America but European Doors have this distinct optional feature. The bottom door seal is hidden from view when the door is open but as soon as it is closed the hidden mechanism engages and the rubber seal closes the gap to the floor. Ideal for Spice Kitchens and Garage-to-House doors where smells and sounds need to be reduced.
Installation of Modern Interior Doors
The installation of European Doors is unique and simple. Since dealing with a door system where both door frame and door panel are fully finished, the installation is accomplished via Low-Expansion foam rather than screws and nails. No more nail and screw holes that have to be filled later. A full-perimeter foam installation of Interior Doors is fast and provides more strength than ordinary screws and shims.
