A Swinging Door With Modern Flair 

Symmetrical and elegant, the Narrows Swinging Door adds modern style to any space. Five narrow glass panels are framed with solid wood rails and stiles. The resulting silhouette is similar to ourMid Century Modern Five Light Door, but the narrower glass panels really allow the real wood grain to shine through.

The Narrows Swinging Door features mortise and tenon joinery. This traditional construction method gives the door improved longevity. Plus, the real wood adds a luxuriously heavy, solid feeling that mass-market interior doors can't replicate. You have twenty wood species to choose from, including American hardwoods like Hickory and Cherry, or exotic hardwoods like Afrormosia and Padauk. If choosing the pre-hung option, your door will also come with a jamb made from the same wood species, for a custom final look. Customer favorites for this door include: 

• European Beech
• Plain Sawn White Oak
• Hickory
• American Ash

While this door design has its origins in the mid-century, it remains a versatile option for many décor styles. We love it for:  

• Mid Century Modern Décor 
• Transitional Décor 
• Minimalist Décor
• Contemporary Décor 

Fun Fact: The name "Narrows" not only describes the glass panels' size but is also a tribute to the Narrows Bridges that connects the city of Tacoma to the town of Gig Harbor, where RealCraft lives! .

Glass Options

Another key element for your door's overall look is the glass, so make sure to consider the importance of privacy when building your door. Choose from the standard clear glass if your main priority is maximizing natural light, or the etched (frosted) option for more privacy.

We highly recommend adding a clear finish to your door to protect it and make sure that it is eligible to be covered by our warranty. A clear finish not only protects your door, it also enhances its beauty and brings out the color and detail of the grain. 

We offer the following finish options:

• White Primer: Added to Paint Grade Hardwood. For this option, we use only high-quality hardwoods like European Beech or Red Grandis. These species provide a smooth surface for paint.
• Clear Satin Eurofinish by Osmo: A high-end hand-rubbed hardwax oil that conditions, seals, and finishes the wood.
• Oil Stain EuroFinish by Osmo: A high-end hand-rubbed hardwax oil that stains, seals, and finishes the wood.

Door Handing and Inswing/Outswing 

Door handing is determined from the outside of a room. If the hinges are on the left side, the door has left handing. If the door swings into the room (away from you, standing outside the room), it is a left-hand inswing door. If it swings toward you, out of the room, it is a left-hand outswing door. The opposite is true of right hand doors – the hinges will be on the right side. If the door swings into the room (away from you), it is a right-hand inswing door. If it swings toward you, out of the room, it is a right-hand outswing door. 

In cases where there isn’t a clear “inside” or “outside” to determine handing (i.e., the door connects two rooms), open the door and stand with your back against the hinges. If the door is on your left, it’s a left-handed door. If the door is on your right, it’s right-handed. If you are still unsure, don't worry! We'll be happy to help you make sure you select the right handing. Just give us a call at 1-800-694-5977, or click the chat bubble on the right to chat with one of our customer care agents! 

Standard interior swinging door slabs are typically 36” x 80.” But widths between 28" and 32" are also common. If your interior door is taller than 80 inches or wider than 36 inches, the thickness should be 1 ¾ inches. Commercial swinging doors are subject to ADA compliance and may require different dimensions. 

 
For pre-hung doors, you will need to know the rough opening measurement. To calculate the rough opening, measure the width from the inside of the side studs at the top, bottom, and middle of the door frame. Use the smallest of the three measurements, if any variance occurs. Next, measure the height from the floor to the header on the left, center, and right. Again, you will use the smallest of these three measurements, if any variance occurs. Measure the thickness of the wall by using the smallest measurement of the exposed drywall. 

For special applications, please call our customer care team at 1-800-694-5977 to make sure you choose the correct size.
