Collection: 1930s Style Doors

What is a 1930s-style door?

Internal doors from this period are known for their art deco style, which is characterised by its classic silhouette, clean lines, and elegant style. A 1930s door blends functionality while maintaining class, fashioning unfussy detailing that is perfect for both traditional and modern interiors.

These popular types of doors are incredibly versatile and timeless, making them perfect for any vintage decor scheme or for adding character to a minimalist interior. Many 1930s-style internal doors have a three or four-panel variation, as well as top-panel glazing.

1930s interior doors were traditionally painted in soft, neutral tones like white, cream, and light grey. This door style has now caught up with the times, and is available in darker finishes for a more contemporary look.

Whether you’re renovating a period property or you want to add a timeless twist to your contemporary home, our 1930s-style doors can complement any aesthetic.

Why are 1930s doors considered art deco style?

1930s doors are typically associated with Art Deco design because they reflect the defining characteristics of this iconic era.

1930s-style doors are usually symmetrical with their unique panel configurations and embrace more streamlined and functional aesthetics. You’ll find that our collection of 1930s interior doors has subtle mouldings that add to the overall look without the intricate embellishments you’d find on Victorian internal doors.

Most doors of this period included glazed panels made from frosted and textured glass. This is a hallmark of Art Deco, as it incorporates decorative and practical embellishments in order to elevate the standard everyday door.

What are the top trends for internal doors?

The top trends for internal doors currently focus on modern, traditional, industrial, minimalist, and rustic aesthetics.

The beauty of a 1930s door is that its style is timeless, seamlessly fitting in with any interior aesthetic. Opt for a style like our Cambridge – Primed Internal Door for a more modern, minimalistic style, and our DX 30’s Style Frosted Glazed Internal Door for a rustic, traditional feel in your home.

If you’d prefer a 1930s-style internal door without glazing, both our Cambridge Oak Internal Door and Oak DX 30’s Style Internal Door are great choices.
