Door Handles - Give Your Doors Some Umph

Right tab

When decorating your house, no matter what room it may be, you always think of the major aspects such as what colour paint, plain paper or patterned, colour and style of carpet, what furniture to have, and so on and so on. The little features usually get forgotten about until the end or entirely missed and it is these little finishing touches that turn a well decorated room into an adorable living space.

You have spent so much time, money and energy into creating the perfect bedroom, or lounge, or dinning room, and so you owe it to yourself to finish the job properly. Choosing the right door handles for your rooms is an example of the finishing touch that can’t be missed. Picking out door handles doesn’t mean just going with the cheapest, banging them on the doors and there you have it jobs done, choosing the right door handles can be as important as picking out the right colour sofa for your living room. For every home and every room and for every preference there is a door handle to suit. You may be thinking ‘I have never even thought about door handles they just came with the doors’, or ‘they were there when we moved in and we haven’t touched them since’ which is all very well and good but now is a great time to have a look around and choose the perfect door handles to give your home and your doors a little bit of umph!

How to pick the right door handles for your doors

Treat door handles as an accessory to your door. This should help in choosing the right style and colour for your home. So if it is an accessory to your doors you will need to look at your doors and see what kind of style they are, for example are they pine wood and simple in design, or are they white and very traditional and intricately styled? If you have a very busy door don’t go for a busy door handle, choose a style that is in keeping with the doors mood but calm it down a little on the door handle otherwise it’ll look too much in the room. If you have a plain door you can go all out and with a jazzy and fancy door handle.

Think about the overall theme to your home and the individual room and what will look good with the style of the door. A good tip when shopping for your door handles is to take a piece of wood the same type and colour as the door in question and put it against all the door handles to see if it goes, just as you would in choosing a set of curtains against the paint on the walls, you need to see if it will go. And don’t be afraid to mix and match, it is not law that you have to have the same door handles throughout your home, if one of your rooms has a different feel to it go with the door handle that fits that, they don’t all have to be the same!
