British architecture is constantly evolving. But when it comes to designing and building houses and, in particular front doors for houses, there are certain designs and styles that endure and continue to be popular to this day. A key element of this fact are doors from grand periods of UK history, doors that conjure up nostalgic images of a world gone by. And one of the most popular doors of such type are Georgian style front doors.
So, what differentiates a Georgian door from any other sort of historic door and why are they still so sought-after by so many UK households. Read here.
Commencing in approximately 1710 and ending some 120 years later in 1830, the Georgian style and historical period is synonymous with grandeur, luxury and lots of living space. This period of history actually gains its name from the fact that no fewer than four British kings, all with the name of George, sat on the throne of England during this time.
When it comes to locating some of the country’s finest examples of Georgian internal doors, both London and the Cotswolds boast a plethora of specimens and will provide bundles of inspiration. With a wide variety of stunning Georgian homes in almost every direction, simply take a stroll through Regent’s Park in the capital or visit Lansdown Crescent in Bath where you will be able to take a step back to Georgian times and gain an insight into what it might have been like to live in such a grand and luxurious home.
One of the key things you will notice about a Georgian house is just how large it is. Everything about Georgian houses is big and generous in proportion to other types of property.
This traditional style of home will always feature broad floor to ceiling, symmetrical windows – at least one window either side of the front door and the same above. And most of the front doors in Georgian homes will have a fan light window over the doors; that’s their unmistakable feature (more on fan light windows later).
Georgian double front doors also carry over that sense of large size and can be easily identified by how much bigger and thicker they are compared to an Edwardian or Victorian door for example. The Georgians liked to make a statement and their doors were no different.
Usually featuring either four or six panels of equal size (symmetry always in play, a typical Georgian front door colour is either black or white, although here at Secure House we have designed manufactured red, blue, green, grey and even yellow replica Georgian doors for clients over the years. Whether you want a traditional finish or something a little brighter in either a primary or pastel colour, a Georgian front door will look amazing every time.
If you’re considering choosing a set of Georgian internal doors rather than a set of front ones for your home, you need to think grand, think scale, think spacious, think light & airy. Georgian homes are still hugely popular amongst house buyers simply because it would seem that us Brits love the sense of grandeur and the clean lines associated with this period of history. So, when it comes to creating your own, the door is a great place to start.
Another distinguishing feature that sets apart Georgian internal doors from other styles is the entrance to the property. The path to would often be tiled for a flourishing decorative touch. Again, black and white tiles were very common and were perfect for complementing the black or white oversize Georgian front door they would lead to.
Adding such a pathway will give an extra element of authenticity to your Georgian home project and that leads us on to another ‘must-have’ design element that every Georgian door deserves
Because rooms were built either side of a central hallway, Georgian properties often had windowless entrances with high ceilings. Due to this, doors would feature fanlights to let natural light flow into the home. These fanlights can be square or arched and would feature either no decoration or very simple designs. These days the fanlight of a Georgian door is often used to display an oversized door number to striking effect.
The short answer is yes! Georgian interior doors are a ‘go to’ door style for millions of homeowners irrespective of whether their property is a new build or something a little older.
Classy and super stylish, a Georgian door is a timeless addition to any home. Plus, if you have an original Georgian front door that needs some tender loving care or simply needs replacing but you love the design and you live in a heritage or conservation area, we can manufacture an almost exact replica door to match.
Our bespoke ironmongery can enhance any set of Georgian style internal doors. Here at Secure House, we have an extensive range of door furniture that includes knockers, handles, plates and letterboxes for a truly incredible look.

And when it comes to security, you can rely on us to ensure your Georgian front door is as secure as any modern counterpart. All of our Georgian style doors include a multi-point locking system and, if you wish, you can upgrade to a fingerprint or facial recognition opening and locking system.
