Persevering with contemporary design details for a stunning finish
The Objectives
Deuren was hired by an architect with plans to design and build his own home. He had very specific ideas in mind for the structural and cosmetic design of the house. He wanted shadow gap door frames to feature throughout the build but was coming up against resistance from builders who were advising him against this labour-intensive work.
Deuren's Solution
A shadow gap door frame gives the impression the door is built into the wall – it has a feature groove between the frame and the wall with no need for architraves. We were able to step in where others had advised against the shadow gap effect.
Door openings were framed and plastered and the door added in. The client specified how he’d like some doors with shadow gap frames and some with regular frames so it was important our work was consistent to meet the overarching theme holding the design together. The internal walls were built in rough stone so the frames had to be cut around the rough stonework. The client decided on Gio door sets throughout with a Satin Walnut finish, which looks fantastic in situ thanks to all the detail in the grain.
This project was commissioned in partnership with GridThirteen.

Matching every entranceway for a consistent finish
Deuren was approached by a designer who had a specific and detailed vision for a build. To meet that vision, they required unique finishes and designs and materials to wow. Doors were required to complement the rest of the stunning finishes found throughout the home.
Beautiful black doors for a breathtaking gated development
Located in the stunning setting of rural South Yorkshire, Maplewood Place is an executive gated development, featuring four luxury houses with ultra-modern interior designs. Utilising a monochrome decor, the client was looking for a series of black internal doors to complement and tie together the light shades which engulfed the homes.
Bespoke secret doors for a sensational interior design
Using a variety of configurations and styles, we manufactured a series of bespoke internal doors for this ambitious project, including a secret pivot door and a breathtaking entrance to a contemporary cinema room.
