Selecting an Interior Door for Your Home
Though there may be an overwhelming amount of options for interior door options. Here are some factors to consider when selecting interior doors for your home.
- Budget: There are a lot of doors on the interior of a home and it can add up, so always consider your budget.
- Spacing: Do you need a door that takes up little space, or is a standard opening available for the area?
- Materials: If you have children or pets or are looking for a specific style, you might opt for different materials based on your situation.
- Privacy: Of course, doors are meant as a divider and to maintain privacy, meaning that a glass door to the bathroom might not always be the best option.
- Style: Certain doors lend themselves to various styles better than others so consider how they go with the vision that you have in mind.
4. Insulation
It’s important to understand the difference between R-value vs U-value. So, when building a new construction home, polyiso wall insulation is a decision most homeowners leave to the builder, but there is one aspect you should consider requesting.
Flat Roof Insulation
Consider requesting flat roof insulation. Flat roof insulation as opposed to insulating it in the standard vaulted fashion can improve the sound acoustics and energy efficiency of the home. Flat roof insulation gives a barrier right on the other side of the ceiling allowing for sound to not echo as easily. Additionally, having that barrier there will help keep the house cool in the summer and warm in the winter.
