Help with Oak Doors

4 years ago

Can anyone please recommend what we put on our new Oak Veneer doors so they keep the pale colour they are now, in our old house we used a similar door, and put clear Matt varnish on them, but it still changed their colour to much darker than we’d like.

Hi if you want dark colours through out your home you can use the dark colour on wood work example flooring if you go for dark oak do the doors and frame and skirting to a lighter tone of the floor or if would like to break the continuous of the colour of the door frame you can stain the skirting boards white or a neutral colour but white does bring the skirting board stand out

If the hall is that narrow and dark, walnut is not going to help as you've said. I assume you favour darker woods so wouldn't be keen on a light oak? If you really want the doors, add decent lighting. Go for an off white paint with a cream undertone with reflective particles. Add mirrors or anything reflective to bounce the light around. Painting the skirts and architraves white would help but I assume you want these left natural? Just a long shot but have you considered white doors with a walnut floor?!

Hello! We are slowly renovating our "millennium builder" style house on the West Coast. Orange clay tile roof, stucco, two-tone brick details. My style is typically modern but I think the house is begging for a more transitional style because of all of it's symmetry.
