Which interior door height corresponds to which room height - collection thread

I don't feel personally attacked, but I don't like generalizations. For example, statements like: "I only pointed out that no housing project since 2000 has been built with doors under 2.11m." In which region of the world? In our new development area, there are about 15 houses and approximately 10 of them have completely normal 2m high doors. I’ll just say keyword: horizon.

But a door height of 1.97m is not up-to-date

Here we are right back at the topic (the word was already mentioned) social housing

Just because some build two-story single-family homes with large window areas, window areas and large common areas that call for higher ceilings, higher ceilings call for taller doors, and taller doors then call for wider ones, it doesn’t mean all of this has to fit the country house style or a nice cozy 139 sqm house.
Style (here the mentioned Bauhaus style or similar) does not reflect what is contemporary. The Bauhaus style existed properly in the past, and also with doors of normal size.
And houses are not automatically social housing just because they have normal doors.
For example, there are great hacks for storage space above the door. The +/-50cm fit very well there without being obtrusive. And if you like using your kitchen, upper cabinets belong to it, which you also want to be able to access at 160/170cm – without a stool. Higher ceilings look somewhat odd in that context. And no one wants to have to place dozens of base cabinets for dishes. Or are upper cabinets also no longer contemporary? Just because it’s a fashion trend?

I merely pointed out that no residential construction project since 2000 is built with doors under 2.11m.

That’s just not true

Topic door handle: By the way, the height of the door handle is also chosen so that as many people as possible, whether very small or very tall, can reach it well.

They are known to be moving it down, to also address seniors and wheelchair users

Ok, I work in the financing of exactly such residential construction projects. I did not talk about houses. Rather about complexes with many rental apartments. And there is no door under 2.11 meters in the apartments. The higher the rent is supposed to be (i.e. higher-end segment), the taller the doors (2.34 m).

You are also welcome to research. You can also research how this has developed in public buildings. All of this will confirm my statements.

you are right, but I am not talking about whether it fits any style.

my only statement: doors have consistently grown over the past decades, just like the average size of people. Simple truth.

I have to agree with . My developers have also not been installing small doors for many years. These are completely normal developments. Just as 15 × 15 cm tiles are no longer used, and often 30 × 30 cm tiles are already considered old-fashioned, with 60 x 60 cm tiles preferred. Therefore, taller doors often do not even cost extra, as they are considered standard. Anyone can install whatever they want. And anyone can also build differently than the average.

Our last offer was 270 high ceilings in the shell construction and 2.11 m doors. Doors under 2.11 m are very reluctantly installed by the [GU].
