Stained Wood

Use a stained wood door to accent wooden furniture and bestow a space with a bohemian or rustic mood. Swinging wood doors allow you to place furniture next to the closet, making them ideal for tight bedrooms.

Chalkboard

Who said the outside of the closet couldn't be useful too? Create a multi-purpose space for a family calendar, notes for guests, weather updates, and more using chalkboard paint.

Arched

Add elegance to your walkway, bathroom, or bedroom with an arched closet door. The classic shape references Carpenter Gothic churches often found in the rural South.

Slatted

This popular style, also known as a double-louvered door, allows natural light to filter through, making it ideal for closets with windows. It also adds texture to a space.

All Over Color

For a simple door that blends with the existing vibe of your space, try painting the closet door the same color as the walls. This works best with simple paneled doors, like this two-paneled door, in busy spaces.

Glass-Top

Display your prized possessions with an classy glass-top closet door. Besides storage, this closet door can also incentivize you to stay organized.

Sliding Barnyard

Sliding baryard doors are the ultimate stylish solution to space constraints, regardless of whether your closet serves as a laundry nook or storage extraordinaire.

Vertical Panels

These shiplap-inspired doors seem reminisce of time passed, bestowing a space with a vintage feel.

5-Panel Door

Sometimes, pillows, drapes, and other accessories aren't enough to establish an accent color in a space. That's where an accent door, like this navy blue 5-paneled door, comes in handy.

Hinged Barnyard

Barnyard doors have become a staple of Modern Farmhouse decorating. This classic hinged version is more ideal for rooms with constraining walls.

Pocket Door

Unlike a sliding barn-door, this door slides into the wall, making it the ultimate space-saver.

Natural Wood Paneling

Natural wood is the epitome of simplicity and relaxation. Bring easy-going vibes to your closet by using this wood style as a closet door.
