ODL Europe has reported strong demand for its 1930s-inspired Craftsman composite door designs, indicating a continuing consumer shift to distinctive traditional styling.

Suzanne Nicholl, head of sales and customer services at ODL Europe, commented: “Craftsman-style composite doors have always been popular in period properties, but we are now seeing an uptake in contemporary new builds and modern refurbishments too.

“Our Craftsman range evokes the spirit of the Arts and Crafts movement and features the traditional ratio of a top third glazing and two thirds panel, emphasising the stunning woodgrain effect on our doors.”

The doors feature the unique ODL Europe Craftsman framing system, which is available in nine shapes. To further enhance the 1930s styling, a dentil shelf is also available which is installed below the top panel or glass of the door.

Like all ODL Europe’s composite door slabs, the Craftsman Collection are manufactured from the Capstone door slab, one of the world’s leading suppliers of composite doors. Over 750,000 Capstone composite doors are installed worldwide every year, so they are tried and tested in the most demanding conditions.

Suzanne concluded: “Our composite door slabs have been purposely designed to reflect all door trends to give our customers a competitive advantage.

“And every door collection, whether Contemporary, Classic, Traditional or Modern has been meticulously designed in a range of styles and finishes allowing our customers a clear point of differentiation to offer a wide and varied portfolio. It’s a powerful proposition to help our customers make the most of the market opportunities.”
