Beautiful black doors for a breathtaking gated development

In stunning rural South Yorkshire, four luxury houses make up the prestigious Maplewood Place gated development: very much an exclusive community of homes, each one featuring an ultra-modern interior designed and made to the highest standards.  In other words, just the kind of property our doors suit perfectly, which was exactly why our developer-client chose our proposal over those of the other suppliers he considered.  Interiors here use a monochrome aesthetic to fantastic effect, so the client wanted a set of black bespoke internal doors to complement the homes’ bold, contrasty, light-and-dark colour scheme within.

Although the doors themselves didn’t present any major design or technical challenges for us, we knew it would be important to communicate closely with three different partners on this project: the building contractor, architect team and also a firm which makes bespoke furniture. This is never an issue for us, since we’ve always known that being superbly organised and highly collaborative are two essentials in our line of work.

For this ultra-high-spec project we designed and crafted made-to-measure Trem H internal doors, paying careful attention to stylistic continuity by using black ash wood.  The door’s dark tones suit the internal colour schemes which surround them, while a defined horizontal grain works perfectly with the sharp lines separating this development’s very contemporary open-plan spaces.  As well as always getting the basics right, we’re firm believers in the devil being in the detail, so we used modern, clean-looking locks and handles to support these interiors’ overall sense of simple sophistication.

Creating black doors is a little less common for us, but being able to offer a huge range of colours and finishes is something we’re really committed to because it’s absolutely vital in a truly bespoke service. 

“For this project I looked at different suppliers of bespoke doors but felt none of them quite matched Deuren’s ability to combine design flair with engineering excellence. These interiors were built to very high standards and so I wasn’t prepared to compromise the overall finish with anything less than perfection, both aesthetically and in terms of performance.  Deuren’s products have more than lived up to my high expectations, adding value to the project and wowing our clients.”
