There is an opinion that the doors for the bathroom and the toilet need to be selected taking into account their resistance to moisture and changes in temperature at low prices and from inexpensive materials so that they can be replaced at any time after the loss of their functional qualities by them. However, this opinion is erroneous. In stores you can find interior doors made of any materials – from chipboard to a solid wooden array. After all, the main purpose of such products is the possibility of complete isolation of such rooms from odors and sounds. The main requirement for them is a small area of the door leaf, so the doors to bathrooms are most often used in size 55×190 and 60×190.
What should be considered when choosing doors for the bathroom and toilet?
Of course, first of all, their quality matters, since they should still be resistant to moisture. It should also be known that such interior doors must correspond to the characteristics of the microclimate in these special rooms. Ventilation usually matters. Natural ventilation here is sometimes not enough, so you need to think about how additional ventilation will be carried out. If the doors to the bathrooms with the dimensions of 55×190 and 60×190 will close tightly, that is, the gap between the door leaf and the floor itself will be minimal, the air simply will not enter the bathroom, which will lead to increased humidity and the possible occurrence of mold, fungus, peeling of paint or just to stable unpleasant odors in this room. Condensate from constant humidity can also settle on the surface of the door itself and lead to its deformation and loss of operational qualities. That is why, you need to think about installing additional ventilation systems, ventilation grilles or special bushings directly into the door leaf, providing a sufficient gap between the door leaf and floor. Such methods will provide sufficient air exchange and prevent deformation and mold formation. When using them, you can install interior doors made of any materials in bathrooms.
You can also find the doors to the bathrooms in size 55×190 and 60×190 with an mounted ventilation grill. Its feature is that it redistributes the air masses between the premises, while excluding the possibility of a review. Such a grate is installed in the door product made of any material. The design of this lattice usually consists of two elements – the main and response. The main element is a special frame with fixed curtains, and the response element is the same frame, but without curtains that adjacent to the main element. If the interior design requires the doors to the bathrooms in size of 55×190 and 60×190, which should fit tightly – such a grate is an excellent solution, since its presence does not significantly affect the appearance of the door leaf. Modern advanced technologies allow you to make inexpensive doors for the bathroom and toilet using various materials, sizes and shapes that are designed to increase their functionality. For example, an interesting solution is models with adjustable ventilation lumen or light protection.
Of course, we should talk separately about the choice of material and color. It should be remembered that it does not have to be white doors, as was customary before. On the contrary, there are many color solutions in which interior doors for the bathroom and toilet organically fit into the color design of the interiors. This can be a high -quality finish made of natural or artificial veneer, products made of metal or plastic, made of whole wooden array or laminated. Such economy class doors also suggest the presence of ventilation grilles made of the same materials as the door leaf. The most common material for the manufacture of ventilation grille built -in the door is plastic, although you can also consider options made of metal or natural wood. Such lattices can be represented in various color solutions corresponding to the design of the door leaf itself. They can be painted in any color, and in the catalog you can also find a color for silver or gold. The latest options are most suitable for spacious rooms decorated in the style of baroque or classicism.
In addition to the ventilation gratings built into the door, ventilation bushings are also used, which are usually installed at the bottom of the door. They can also be performed in a variety of colors. It is impossible to imagine that any of these two options may not be suitable. However, if, nevertheless, for any reason, the installation of such products seems impossible, it is necessary to think over the opportunity to leave the gap between the floor and the doorbill of at least 1 cm.
The door for the bathroom and toilet presented in stores is really the most profitable and functional solution to high humidity problems, heat transfer, smell – and sound insulation. Each buyer can choose suitable interior doors that will most comply with its preferences.
