Like every investment you make for your home, there are lots of factors to consider when choosing new interior doors. You can choose from a variety of shaker style doors, from a very affordable hollow core style, to a solid wood, and everything in between.
Affordability is a personal measure, but you can expect to spend everywhere from $60 (at the bare minimum) to around $500 for interior doors. We chose solid wood Shaker doors for our home, which came in at the higher end of this range.
You’ll see them priced by range of quality and material, from least expensive to most expensive:
- Hollow Core Doors – the least expensive option, can look great but is not particularly soundproof and weighs less.
- Solid Core Doors – made with a composite core and veneers, often considered a compromise of quality and budget.
- Solid Wood Doors – these are always going to be the most expensive option, but they are considered the highest quality and always offer the most sound reduction and longest life span. (They can be repaired and sanded time and again.)
