dichosalocura Posted March 11, 2021 Report Share Posted March 11, 2021 We are building a new extension to our house to connect the outside laundry room to our existing house. In addition we added an extra bedroom bathroom and family room. We built a brick archway to the laundry room. Now we want to put a cool rustic Mexican type door that opens in the middle. Has anybody done something similar and or have fotos or contact information for a favorite carpenter? Below is the arch with the landery room. Sink and counter the dryer will go in the space next to the washer. We are just looking for cool ideas of rustic doors to hide away the laundry room. Any ideas for wooden door are welcomed. We don't want to hang beads or a curtain. Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dichosalocura Posted March 11, 2021 Author Report Share Posted March 11, 2021 Maybe something cute similar to this with carved wood is what we are looking for. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Louvered swinging doors, maybe, like in a saloon? https://www.swingingcafedoors.com/blog/5-reasons-why-swing-saloon-doors-are-ideal-for-your-home/ or https://www.amazon.com/zonxn-Western-Swinging-Bathroom-Decor-72inX78in/dp/B07TLZQ2S3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
happyjillin Posted March 12, 2021 Report Share Posted March 12, 2021 I did extensive research on colonial doors and have a large file. You can do that too and have metal doors made that look like wood using the trompe l'oeil paint technique like we did with a metal shop and painter who knew the technique through our contractor. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
happyjillin Posted March 12, 2021 Report Share Posted March 12, 2021 Before paint. It will be less costly than wood and I suspect that you would have a difficult time finding a maestro capable of making you a colonial type door out of wood around here to fit your existing opening.
