Modern front door handle designs
Your front door handle is a far more important part of your property than most people give it credit for. When we think of front door handles, and door handles in general, we tend to think of these as the added little extras that aren’t entirely necessary but that can make a pleasant difference to the property.. It’s nice to have the best looking door handles, but if they are a little less than perfect it’s hardly going to matter is it?
Well this is of course untrue, and you will find that your front door handles in fact have a very big impact on your property. First of all this is because they are on the outside of your property meaning that they are one of the first things that people see when they go past your home, and at the same time this means that it will make one of the first impressions when they head up your front drive.
The other important thing to consider is that door handles are of course rather crucial for entering a property. In order to get in, you’re going to have to use the door handle and that means that you are of course going to notice them. You might not notice a picture hung on the wall in a property because there’s just no reason to look up at that part of the wall – however with a door handle you know people need to interact with it so it’s worth investing.
There are many different kinds of door handles and particularly for front doors there are many different kinds of modern styles and designs. As a rule the majority of modern designs are either silver, gold or white plastic. Silver and gold have a more finished look and make your property look slightly more luxury when compared to the obvious plastic that is white.
For the most modern door handle designs you will want to select a minimalist approach. Many of today’s door handles consider of little more than a circle and a straight handle coming off of them, or of just a slight ‘wave’ that the handle consists of.
Other door handles will still however look more ornate and decorative. Just because a lot of door handles today are minimalist in design, that doesn’t have to mean that you can’t choose a more traditional door handle.
Think about what matches the rest of your property. Are the interior and the drive of your property modern looking and minimal? Or are they more old fashioned and traditional looking. Choosing your door handle to match is what will make it fit in and really look the part.
At the same time you should consider matching the various handles around your property where possible. It may be for instance that you can match your door handles with the handles on your windows, and with the handles on the back doors – even if they aren’t the same they can be the same style. Lastly think about function – do they feel good to use, are they secure, and do they work with the locks you want?
In the last years, there has been a lot of new contemporary door handles come on the market. This includes chic new door hardware too, like knobs and knockers.
