Modern, spacious and extravagant - floor-to-ceiling doors are a real eye-catcher. But what characterises these doors, when do floor-to-ceiling units make sense and what are the differences?
Floor-to-ceiling door vs. standard height
Large and high rooms convey a feeling of space. There is space here, but doors with standard dimensions are still usually installed. These can then appear too small in the high room. This automatically loses some of its charm. Floor-to-ceiling doors, on the other hand, make optimum use of the height of a room. They create a harmonious and spacious overall impression.
Doors up to the ceiling
A floor-to-ceiling door extends from the floor to the ceiling. This is why they are also known as ceiling-high or storey-high doors. These interior doors are available in a wide variety of designs - single or double-leaf, as swing or sliding doors and in a wide range of materials and surfaces. The CPL variants are particularly hard-wearing with their dirt-resistant, scratch-, impact- and abrasion-resistant surfaces and are suitable for both private and commercial use. The CPL variants are not only available in a wide range of colours, but also in a deceptively real wood look.
With or without floor-to-ceiling elements?
Once the decision in favour of a floor-to-ceiling interior door has been made, the next step is to define the design in detail. Either a floor-to-ceiling door leaf that extends from the floor to the ceiling or a classic door leaf with a fanlight or top panel. A glass fanlight lets light into the room and makes it brighter. The fanlight acts as a clean finish up to the ceiling. A chic alternative are all-glass doors with a glass fanlight, which become an impressive design element thanks to their transparency. Glass side panels are also stylish visual brighteners that ensure that light enters the neighbouring rooms even when the door is closed.
Even more options
Other possible variations include floor-to-ceiling interior doors with or without transoms and with or without frame cross-panels. The interior doors with full-length frame present themselves as a flush-fitting unit and create a high-quality overall aesthetic. Door combinations with a casing frame in all standard surfaces or as a panelled and block frame are also possible.
Design freedom
Regardless of which variant you choose, floor-to-ceiling doors and storey-high units create an individual atmosphere and emphasise the width of the room to optimum effect. Doors up to the ceiling are also an extraordinary eye-catcher. They can be customised and adapted to the room situation thanks to a wide range of possible variations. Here you will find an overview of different door variations from PRÜM: https://www.tuer.de/produkte/innentueren/raumhohe-tueren.html.
The spectrum ranges from doors that deliberately stand out and contrast strongly with the wall colour to doors that form a visual unit with the wall and are therefore barely visible.
