Dutch:  Dutch doors are divided horizontally so that you can open the top half or the bottom half without opening the entire door. These types of doors are less common in Deer Park but can give your home a simple charm that’s unique on your block.

Wood Doors:  These doors are widely used, especially for entry doors and interior doors.  One of the great advantages of using wood as a material for your door is that there are so many custom options available on how it looks and the different style it can be crafted to be used.

Steel Doors:  These doors are sturdy and have a great advantage because they are so low maintenance.  Most metal doors are truly affordable and provide a great seal from the weather outside.  One of the other advantages of metal doors is they won’t wear or get damaged as other materials from the weather outside.

Flush:  Used inside the home for bedrooms and bathrooms, these doors are typically solid doors with no special characterization or decoration.  They are just great separate your areas in the house and can be stained or painted any style you want.
