As homeowners’ preferences evolve, it’s crucial for housebuilders to understand their priorities when designing new homes. The era of open-plan living is giving way to the new broken-plan living trend. The square footage of a home now needs to work harder and perform more functions than ever, with many wanting to ‘zone’ their homes to compartmentalise living and working. Housebuilders can ensure these demands are met with functionality and style with Origin’s internal glazing offering… the Internal Door (OI-30).
The steel-look glazed wall and door system, made from premium-grade aluminium, transforms living areas without compromising on natural light. With Origin’s Internal Door, properties can maintain the light, airy and spacious feel homeowners value from open-plan living while benefiting from a more practical footprint for contemporary lifestyles.
Manufactured in the UK, the OI-30 is a housebuilder’s ultimate dream product, offering limitless customisation possibilities. Choose between French or single doors, or combine these elements with a corner post to create an additional room. For larger apertures, the doors can be installed with fixed panes on the sides or top. With over 150 RAL colours available, the doors can be tailored to match any aesthetic.
The 30mm sightline is one of the slimmest on the market and allows maximum natural light to flow through a property whilst dividing the floorplan into practical spaces for all aspects of life.
Origin’s Internal Doors are powder coated with a highly durable coating to resist everyday wear and tear. So, housebuilders can rest assured their recommendations will last and withstand the test of time.
The inclusion of Origin’s statement-glazed door in properties maximises appeal to potential home buyers. Plus, like all of Origin’s products, the OI-30 Internal Door is built to last.
