Has anyone tried black interior door in their home recently?
Hi all, I'm updating my condo and really drawn to the bold look of darker doors instead of the usual white/beige. Black seems trendy but I'm a bit worried it'll make hallways feel too narrow or gloomy. Anyone installed black interior door lately? How do they hold up with dust/kids/pets, and do they actually brighten up with good lighting? Would love real experiences before I commit!

I went with black interior door about 8 months ago after seeing them in a few design mags, and I have zero regrets. They give the place this modern, almost hotel-like feel without being over the top. In my case, they actually make the space look more put-together because they hide fingerprints and light scuffs way better than lighter colors. Just make sure you have decent overhead lights or some wall sconces—otherwise it can feel a bit cave-like in low-light rooms. I found a solid range of options (from matte to glossy finishes) here that weren't crazy expensive: black interior door Delivery was quick too. If your walls are neutral or light, the contrast pops nicely. Definitely recommend if you want something different.
