NOTES WHEN DESIGNING DOOR SIZE
When building or renovating a house, designing the door size is an important factor that cannot be ignored. Doors not only play a role in connecting spaces, but also affect the aesthetics, comfort and security of the house. Below are some notes when designing door sizes.

For housing, the door plays a very important role. It is the connection between the inside and outside of the house. People often compare the human eyes to the "window of the soul". The open window is a whole precious spiritual world inside. It is also a quite reasonable way to see the importance of the door. Considered the place to recharge the house, the main door and windows are very important factors to help the house have aesthetic beauty, functionality as well as harmony in terms of feng shui.

The main door should be square and not tilted. Normally, according to feng shui concepts and construction practices of many projects, the main door of houses and villas often has the following detailed dimensions:

However, it is also possible to apply a single-wing door (small door size), and increase the number of doors for the room. This will still ensure light.

Currently, there are many types of windows that can be applied; in terms of materials: there are glass doors, wooden doors, wooden-framed glass doors, ... and many other materials that can be applied.

4. Door size standards
4.1. Main door size
The main door is the first highlight of the house and is often the first place that guests see. The standard size for the main door is usually 90cm x 210cm. However, you can adjust the size based on the architectural style, geographical features and front yard area. Modern houses may require a larger main door to create a sense of grandeur, while traditional houses can use a smaller size. If you live in an area with a harsh climate, the main door needs to be designed to be more sturdy and have good protection. Large doors will be suitable for spacious front yards, creating balance for the overall space.
4.2. Bedroom doors
The bedroom door needs to ensure privacy and comfort. The standard size is usually 80cm x 210cm, but you can adjust it according to the bedroom area and interior structure. Larger bedrooms can use 90cm wide doors to create an airy feeling. If the interior of the room has many large pieces of furniture, a wide door will be more convenient for moving. In addition, the bedroom door can have a special design such as a sliding door or a double-wing door to create a highlight.
4.3. Windows
Windows are not only a place to welcome light but also help with ventilation and create a feeling of closeness to nature. Window sizes usually range from 90 cm to 120 cm in height and from 60 cm to 100 cm in width. It is important to pay attention to the height and light, because windows from 1.2 m to 1.5 m high will optimize light and make the space more spacious. Windows that open outwards need to be larger for ease of use, while fixed windows can be smaller. In addition, windows facing south or east usually need to be larger to optimize natural light.
4.4 Bathroom door
The bathroom door should be about 70 cm x 210 cm in size. Some factors to consider include space saving, material and ventilation. Inward opening doors save space outside, while sliding doors are a good choice for small rooms. Plastic or industrial wooden doors are popular choices, which are good at preventing moisture and are easy to clean. Consider designing ventilation holes or small windows to ensure air circulation in the bathroom.
4.5. Combine with the overall architecture
To create harmony, you need to consider the size of the door to match the size of the wall and the overall space. The size of the door needs to be balanced to avoid a feeling of being out of place. The design style is also very important; classic doors will have intricate lines and decorative details, while modern doors are often simple and elegant. Choose the color and material of the door similar to the color of the wall and interior to create uniformity for the living space.
4.6. Door material and style
The material and style of the door greatly affects the size. Wooden doors need to be large enough to ensure strength, often designed with delicate carvings. Meanwhile, plastic or glass doors can be lighter and easily customized in size, but durability and soundproofing should be considered. Modern styles often use large glass doors, which help optimize light and create open spaces, giving the house an airy feeling.
4.7. Security factor
Security is an indispensable factor in door design. Door material plays an important role, steel or solid wood doors are more resistant to impact than lightweight doors. The locking system is also very important; multi-point locks or smart locks should be used to enhance the security of the house. Finally, make sure the door is always in good condition by periodically checking parts such as hinges, locks and protective paint.
The design of the door size not only affects the usability but also determines the overall aesthetics of the house. Consider all of the above factors to make the best choice for your living space!
