First impressions matter. This is why hotel entrances, lobbies and reception areas are specially given attention to.

Let’s get started, shall we?

1: A Transparent Glass Barn Door Design

If you are looking for stylish, modern, yet sleek office main door designs, you cannot go wrong with a combination of glass and aluminium for a barn door design. While the glass walls in this image allow for natural light to flood in, even in a concrete-walled space, you can use this wide modern office glass door design that also allows for abundant natural light into the space. This is very ideal for a reception area or lobby that you want people to comfortable visiting in full daylight, lending a respectable and sophisticated vibe to the entrance. 

2: A Minimalist Wooden Office Door Design

If you are one for a modern office entrance door, yet prefer the rustic charm of the olden office days, you can go for an office wooden door design as the image above shows. With a top to bottom vertical metallic push-pull handle, a wooden door design for the office allows you to keep the breadth as wide as you want while maintaining the privacy of the room inside. This is ideal for large conference rooms, where sensitive discussions are protected with a sound-proof door. 

3: Let ‘Em Slide

One of the latest office door designs out there today is the sliding kind. Doesn’t it feel futuristic when you walk into a mall entrance and the doors slide open automatically? Even if you don’t go for an automatic kind, a sliding office glass door design is very effective in space management. If you can go with a complete glass wall design as the image shows, the sliding office door design can do wonders for your natural lighting in the room as well as energy efficiency, as you wouldn’t need to keep the lights on often. 

4: Change Up the Classic Double Door Design

Some things never go out of style. But why not switch up that style to create something familiar yet different and creative? As this office double door design shows, you can use a combination of glazed or semi-opaque glass panels and colourful frames to make your office entrance stand out. You can also go for a curved style of double doors depending on the flexibility of the area in your office. 

5: A Grand Revolving Experience

A very familiar feature of large shopping complexes, multinational companies, and hospitals, the use of a revolving office entrance door design has been there since the 19^th century if you can believe. Invented to relieve the high pressure created by the air rushing into high-rising buildings (i.e., the stack effect pressure), all while allowing a large number of people to go in and out. Why not try such a secure and energy-efficient front office door design for your next commercial office grand opening? The best thing is you wouldn’t need a doorman to hold it open, the doors do it themselves!

6: Go for a Japanese Shoji Look

While we spoke of sliding office front door designs, we didn’t cover where such designs came from. The classic Japanese shoji design style also plays very well with office décor. Not only are they space-efficient, the Japanese Shoji style of architecture also allows for abundant natural lighting flooding the rooms, even if the glass used is opaque, semi-transparent, or covered in patterns. 

7: Try A Framed Glass Swing Door Design for Office

Similar to shoji, the framed glass swing office entry door design incorporates both the classic Japanese décor as well as the charm of a pull-in-or-out door. This is especially good with glazed glass pocket door designs as these doors offer enough privacy to let someone outside the room know that it is occupied. The top to bottom floor design also ensures that it is soundproof and any energy from the air conditioner inside is not leaking outside. 

8: Try Patterned Glass Designs

Be it sliding or a pull-out design, your brand design aesthetic matters. You can incorporate the same on the office entrance glass door design as shown above. Not only can you explore interesting geometric patterns and shapes, but also introduce colour schemes that resonate with your company’s brand. This way your door does the advertising for you!

9: Offer A French Door Design Invitation

You don’t always need metallic frames and explore PVC or gypsum alternatives which are more cost-effective setups with beautiful glass combinations. As the image above of the French style office main entrance door design shows, you can choose a design aesthetic that lends an elegant look to outsiders vying to check out the interiors. This is perfect for corner food joints, libraries, bookstores, and establishments with products to highlight in a small space. 

10: Try Colourful Lighting Décor

With interestingly framed glass office door designs, you also have the choice to make them creatively lit. Especially in the parts of the offices that don’t get enough natural light due to not being near the window or in the basement, your employees’ morale shouldn’t go down. As this image of a swanky start-up type décor shows, you can explore bright coloured frames with varied lightings that can make even a tiny conference room look eccentric and charming. 

Tips To Choose Office Door Designs

Every office, regardless of a fortune 500 headquarters or a swanky architecture firm, needs an office door design that is not only secure enough to protect the assets within the building but also is quiet so that work doesn’t get interrupted every time someone walks in. There are a few criteria you should begin your first step with. This is why I think you should always keep these four tips to choosing your office door design – protection, acoustics, invitation, and sheen. Let me explain.

1. Protection: Your office will most likely have many sensitive IP assets such as everyday memos, vital documents, account details, brainstorming sessions for the next product launch etc. which are generally company secret. This is why you should always consider protection, security, and privacy as vital elements – even if the door you choose is made up of glass. 
2. Acoustics: Your door design must be able to keep the noise out and provide a safe space for conversations. You wouldn’t want a work argument between two colleagues to spill out and cause disturbance for others in the office for example. This is why you should choose a door design that can dampen noise.
3. Invitation: While functionalities like protection and acoustics are vital, your design aesthetic is an important part of your decision process. You would want anyone who walks in through the door to feel a sense of warmth, should be easily accessible and structured wide enough to allow more than a few people at a time. 
4. Sheen: Your office door can have the most intricate design and functionalities, but if it is difficult to maintain like it was when it was first installed, the design may not be worth it. After all, an office door is something that is used daily and as such must be easy to clean and repair when the time calls for it.  

At the end of the day, you want your workplace entrances to use simple yet sophisticated designs while creating a feeling of comfort when someone walks through them. So, if you want to make your office doors slide, sure! Go ahead and incorporate a sliding door design for the office. But ensure they encourage natural light and not a feeling of being trapped in once the door is closed. 

Things To Remember When Installing a New Office Door Design

There is so much more to simply installing a new door design than just sticking a piece of a flat block into a rectangular hole in the wall. While we use so many doors, we do not appreciate the intricacies involved in the installation as some mistakes like meeting commercial regulatory standards, overspending on materials, lacking enough functionalities of locks and maintaining them over a long period – or at least till the office lease gets done. This is why here are a few things you should remember before installing a new office door design. 

• Choose the right material for your climate: We neglect to choose door designs based on the weather conditions we live in. Wood for the most used main door entrance of the office in a humid or rainy climate is not ideal as the material will get ruined. While a steel or aluminium door design for an office can look classy with its metallic opulence, they are not ideal for a climate where the temperature is high most of the time. 
• Energy efficiency, lighting, and insulation: The material of your door matters as much as its quality. A fibreglass door design or steel design may offer the ideal insulation against the outdoors but also can allow a massive amount of heat loss due to leaks of air around the door. Ensure that your door design doesn’t waste energy, allows good lighting, and insulates the outside so the internal temperature is comfortably regulated – be it summer, winter, or monsoon. 
• Frequency of use: Depending on how often a door will be used, your design for the office door will also change. A main entrance door design for an office, for example, should be more open and wider, while an office cabin glass door design can be narrower and be opaque to ensure privacy for team meetings. Similarly, while the door handle for the main entry door can be simple, the interior doors for cabins and meeting rooms can be more intricate in design.
