When choosing interior doors for your home or office, it is important to first think about the function that the door will operate. There is a variety of doors on the market for specific purposes: decorative doors, protection doors, as well as privacy and security doors. Decorative doors are usually installed inside homes as a barrier between the rooms or common areas that do not need security - for example, doors connecting the kitchen and a living room. The main purpose of a decorative door is overall attractiveness and being an element of décor of the house. Protection doors are usually the doors that connect the house or the place of business with the outside world and serve as a security measure to prevent trespassing and unwanted business to enter the premises. Security doors always have special locks and most of the times are made with heavy materials like solid wood or stainless steel for an additional sturdiness. Privacy doors are used to keep the noise and unwanted people away and to connect common areas like person's room, office or utility room.

Types of rooms which the doors connect also determine the way the interior door will look like. Decide what you want the door to do for you and choose accordingly. For example, bathroom doors should be different from cabinet, closet or AC room doors, because they all serve different purpose.
