The Craftsman design style comes from turn of the 20th century America, and borrows from the popular arts and crafts trends of the time. This has lived on to become a timeless aesthetic with a rugged, persevering, collaborative personality.
In general, craftsman exterior doors feature an interesting glass panel at the top third, a simple yet sturdy dentil shelf at the bottom of the glass, simple ornamental panels on the bottom two thirds, and a natural wood finish. There isn’t much variety to most of these features, except for the glass panel. A major part of the charm of this style is that homeowners are encouraged to be as creative as they want. Following the spirit of the arts and crafts movement, decorative grilles, colours, textures, and anything else you can imagine are all part of the style.
Applying this style to steel door adds the strength and longevity of modern materials without sacrificing visual appeal. The right combination of design elements, colours, and finishes can make steel doors practically indistinguishable from traditional craftsman doors while delivering superior security and ease of maintenance.
Steel craftsmen doors can also be modernized in many ways. Homeowners enjoy experimenting different combinations of bolder colours, interesting textures, decorate glass and elaborate sidelights to give their doors truly unique personalities.
