Top 50 Best Interior Door Trim Ideas – Casing And Molding Designs

Door Ideas

A home’s entryway makes a crucial first impression, and the ways in which we choose to accent it can make all the difference between an unforgettable welcoming and altogether dismal salutation.

But what about what lies beyond the threshold, the other side of the real and proverbial door? What stands between the stately enclave and regrettably forgettable abode?

Interior door trimming all but gives a nod to the sentiments of our ancestors, who for thousands of years took great pains to craft the most ornately appealing doors, inside and out. From intricate casings to grandiose wood and inlaid paneling, as well as turn-of-the-century inspired jams featuring elegant scrollwork and cast iron resilience, the spectrum of interior door trimming options proves that the domestic devil is indeed in the details.

Stepping over the threshold into one’s home is an experience worth savoring, with no detail or accent too trivial to afford a second look. You and your guests deserve to pass through your home’s entryway in pleasure and style, day after day, year after year.

Decadent casings and bespoke-inspired reveal beads may not seem like home-altering upgrades, but time has proven many an interior novice wrong. If you’re looking to apply subtle, budget-conscious improvements to your deserving space, look no further than the very doors you pass through year round with these top 50 best interior door trim ideas below.

Door Casing Styles

Colonial Style Door Casing

Colonial Style Door Casing

This kind of design is often found in Colonial homes in the United States. It is a basic one-piece baseboard with a back band that creates a casing between the two decorated edges. To install this kind of molding, you can use rosettes or miters at the top and against the floor at the bottom. A plinth block is also a common finish for this look and provide you with a much neater and smoother transition to the floor and baseboard.

Cove and Bead Casing

Cove And Bead Casing

This is another traditional casing design that uses a one-piece profile for the sides and four pieces to make up the header. So, there is a one-piece case, bead molding on the top and bottom, cove molding underneath the bead molding on top and then a 1 x 4 under that. Again, a plinth block can be used to create a much more traditional look.

Victorian Casing Design

Victorian Casing Design

This design is much more elaborate than the other two more traditional designs we have already mentioned. It is a design that is often found in Victorian style homes across the country. It has a half round molding and back band molding with 1 by lumber. To build this casing, you take the 1 by and the half-round – already preassembled. The sides and the header are joined using rosette blocks.

Combination Casing Design

Combination Casing Design

This design doesn’t fit into any one particular style. It involves a one-piece baseboard and a back band combination. The header features a bed crown profile and bead molding. The headers are cut at the ends and the sides and this design can be built using wider finish boards. This is good for homes that have high ceilings or larger rooms.

Ripple Effect Door

Ripple Effect

This door casing has mitered corners and several layers of different sizes for a more attractive and complex design and style. It is a great choice for a Victorian style home or a new Colonial Revival inspired home.

Elegance and Simplicity

If you want something simple but also elegant, a butted door casing with flat side casings features a defined header casing and crown. You can also customize the colors for this design choice as you see fit.

Mitered vs. Butted Door Casings

Mitered casings have three parts including the side pieces and header casing. The mitered joints are also angled. The casings can be flat or more elaborate with wider options that offer you more intricate details for the design.

Butted casings, on the other hand, combine two side casings with a wider head casing on the top. This draws the eye upwards, so if you have high ceilings in the home, then this is definitely the style choice you will want to explore.

Interior Door Trim FAQ

How do you install interior door trim?

It is a lot easier than you may have originally thought and is a good way to spruce up the home without breaking the bank or having to spend a lot of time on a project. To install door trim, you may need a miter saw, a pencil, tape measure, and claw hammer in addition to the wood filler, molding, and finishing products you are going to use.

First, you need to prepare to install the door trim. You then need to calculate the side length and the head length, and then make the cuts.

Should the baseboards match the door trim?

This is a design choice that is entirely up to you. Classically and more traditionally speaking, white is most often used for ceiling and trim including the base molding, window casings, and door casings. The walls are then painted a different color of your choosing. However, you can match everything as well if that is what you want or choose other contrasting colors.

How do you measure and trim a door trim?

Door trim should be mitered at a 45-degree angle at the top. So, you would measure form the floor to the top of the door and then make a mark on the trim piece and set the miter saw at 45-degrees. You then measure across the top of the door jamb.

What is the molding around a door called?

The base molding around a door is called the baseboard. This is what is installed on the lower part of the walls in the home and along a finished floor. It is also often referred to as the wall base. The casing is what surrounds the interior doors and windows.

Do Craftsman style homes have crown molding?

Craftsman style homes don’t typically have crown molding. Instead, you can see baseboards and shoe molds throughout the house.

What is the most popular baseboard trim?

Rounded or stepped trip is considered the most common type of baseboard. It is the trim that is typically used in new construction projects. This trim usually measures around 5/8 inch to 7/8 of an inch wide and will be approximately three to three and a half inches tall.

Does having crown molding increase the value of a home?

Whatever you can do to a home to give it a more stylish appearance is going to be good when it comes to raising the appraised value of the home. These small and inexpensive additions can add a lot of value, even if it is just adding in some crown molding, a chair rail, new window trim, or base molding- as long as it is done properly.

With the winter months (hopefully) dwindling down, it’s time to start planning ahead to a time where we can wear thinner jackets and fewer layers. While it may be tempting to quickly shed your parka and grab for whatever piece of outerwear is nearby, don’t reach for last year’s wardrobe item just yet. Isn’t it time you try something new, like, say, a leather jacket? 

Though it may seem all leather jackets are similar, there are actually many different designs and styles that work for different body types and tastes. In this article, we will take a look at the hottest leather jacket trends that have hit the market this season. 

Best Buy

1. Aaron Brown Leather Bomber

Aaron Brown Leather Bomber Jacket

Check Price

 

The Aaron Brown Leather Jacket from The Jacket Maker is an excellent choice for any guy looking for that traditional bomber look. This awesome jacket features a slim cut and ribbed cuffs and waist. It’s made with incredibly tough, yet soft, goatskin leather, making it a great choice for guys that aren’t used to wearing leather jackets.

One of the best things about the Aaron is that it shirks the classic pouch pockets on the lower half of the jacket, opting for two buttoned patch pockets on the chest instead. This design gives it a more streamlined look than most bombers, without taking away from any of the authenticity.

 

2. Saint Laurent Leather Biker Jacket

Saint-Laurent-Leather-Biker-Jacket

 

Check Price

 

There is a reason why leather jackets and bikers are usually associated with one another. Historically, many motorcycle riders have seen a leather jacket as a stylish way to protect themselves, not only from the elements but also from the possibility of a crash. While this may seem hard to believe – it’s not like leather comes with a large amount of padding, after all – leather has actually been shown to offer more protection than your average vinyl jacket or equivalent.

Maybe you’re not hopping on a motorcycle anytime soon, but you can still treat yourself to this biker-inspired Saint Laurent leather jacket. With a price tag surpassing $5,000, it’s certainly our premium pick on this list, but if you’re looking for the leather jacket of a lifetime, you have it right here. This pick is sure to come with the “for life” quality Saint Laurent is particularly known for. 

 

3. Reiss  Keith Leather Cafe Racer Jacket

Reiss-Keith-Leather-Cafe-Racer-Jacket

 

Check Price

 

Reiss is a British fashion retailer that’s been around since the 1970s. For the first 30 years of its brand history, it focused solely on men’s fashion before eventually expanding to carry items for women as well. However, the fact high-quality items for men are at the heart of this brand is very apparent through their simple wardrobe staples such as the Keith leather cafe racer jacket.

This Reiss jacket comes at a considerably lower price point than its counterparts, which makes it a pick that packs a lot of value. It’s made from super-soft leather and features a full lining. It’s the perfect choice for anybody who prefers a slim-fit jacket. 

 

4. Lavendard Brown Leather Bike Jacket

Lavendard Brown Leather Biker Jacket

Check Price

 

The Jacket Maker has something for everyone, including guys that are a bit intimidated by purchasing their first leather jacket. Not only is the Lavendard incredibly affordable, but it also has a really approachable look despite its biker moniker. With open hem cuffs and a tailored fit, it looks great with badass-inspired outfits as well as everyday wear.

The Lavendard is made of real cowhide, which means it will take on a great patina over time. But it might be a bit stiff when you first get it. The more you wear it, the faster it’ll form to your body, break-in, and soften up. The fact that it goes with so many outfits will help speed up that process.

 

5. Ksubi Capital Leather Jacket

Ksubi-Capital-Leather-Jacket

 

Check Price

 

The Capital Leather Jacket from Ksubi comes in 100% authentic leather and is designed to have a biker fit. It’s heavy-duty with a protective interior quilted lining. It also features retro details such as antique zippers.

Kusbi is an Australian fashion label that’s existed since the 1990s. While the brand was originally focused on high-end denim, they’ve expanded their offerings over time to include other textiles such as leather. Items from Ksubi’s collections have been shown at such high-profile events as New York Fashion Week and London Fashion Week, and the company operates a flagship store in New York’s SOHO neighborhood.

 

 

6. Acne Studios Off-Centred Zipper Biker Jacket

Acne-Studios-Off-Centred-Zipper-Biker-Jacket

 

Check Price

 

Swedish fashion powerhouse Acne Studios is well-known for their basic wardrobe pieces, so it makes sense that they would have the classic leather jacket look on lock. We love the way this off-centered jacket packs a punch of personality with its multiple buckles and zippers, but we love even more the way that it does not compromise softness or comfort at the expense of appearance.

This jacket comes with a high-end price tag, but it has the high-end materials to match. It is made of 100% genuine lambskin and comes with an interior lining of 100% viscose. Its unique off-center zip takes its inspiration from street style. 

 

7. Airin G-1 Black and White Leather Jacket

Airin G-1 Black & White Leather Bomber Jacket

Check Price

 

There’s only one way to improve upon a traditional bomber: Add shearling fabric. The Jacket Maker’s Airin G-1 Bomber will have ready to strap into the cockpit, ready to fly over Europe on a midnight air-raid. It has a thick polyester-lined collar as well as ribbed cuffs and waist for a nice, snug fit that keeps the wind at bay.

The Airin is made with real sheepskin, so it’s soft but super durable, making it a great choice for almost any type of casual wear. The dual front pouch pockets are great for a phone and a pair of gloves, so if you’re wearing it on a motorcycle, you’ll have the storage you need.

 

8. Saturdays NYC Leather Harrington Jacket

Saturdays-NYC-Leather-Harrington-Jacket

 

Check Price

 

If you’re unfamiliar with the brand Saturdays NYC, prepare to fall in love. As a laidback lifestyle brand, Saturdays NYC infuses its love for all things surfer culture in all of its fashion offerings. While primarily known for their loungewear, such as sweats and pullover sweaters, they also happen to make one of the best leather jackets on the market right now. 

The leather Harrington jacket features a smooth design and has deep pockets for your convenience. It is made of 100% lambskin leather and features a lining made of polyester. Staying true to its brand’s carefree nature, this jacket features a more relaxed fit than many classic leather jackets.

 

9. Berluti Piped Venezia Leather Jacket

Berluti-Piped-Venezia-Leather-Jacket

 

Check Price

 

Unlike the other options we’ve included so far, Berluti is known less for being a fashion brand and more for being a leather maker. Since its inception in the late 19th century, the Paris-based manufacturer has been producing fine leather clothing items and accessories, from belts to bags to jackets.

Berluti’s piped Venezia leather jacket is the apex of luxury leather fashion. Made from a distinctive brown shade, this jacket line has been around since the 1980s – and it’s a style that certainly stands the test of time.

This jacket is made from 100% authentic patinated calfskin leather and features shoulder patches and a buttoned collar. For optimal breathability, the jacket even features ventilation eyelets.

 

10. Dean Black Leather Biker Jacket

Dean Black Leather Biker Jacket

Let’s be honest.. A traditional racing-style biker jacket is about as cool as it gets. With the high band-style collar and heavy-duty zippers on the front of The Jacket Maker’s Dean Leather Biker Jacket, you’re sure to get that badass look.

The Dean is made with 100% real cowhide leather, so it might be a little stiff at first, but it will break in and patina like none other. The Dean features three zippered pockets on the front as well as zippered cuffs, providing that authentic racing jacket-look without killing your bank account.

 

11. Kingsman Burnished Leather Jacket

Kingsman-Burnished-Leather-Jacket

 

Check Price

 

Kingsman is a line of high-quality clothing pieces that exists as a collaboration between Mr. Matthew Vaughn, director of the film The King’s Man, and international online fashion retailer MR PORTER. The line features items that are inspired by classic military style and timeless sensibilities.

The burnished leather jacket from the Kingsman line is unique for its length as well as its appearance. It draws direct inspiration from an aviator jacket worn on-screen in The King’s Man, a period piece that takes place in the 1940s. The jacket is made out of sturdy cow leather and buttons made of buffalo horns. It also features two linings – one made of cotton, and one made of viscose. 

 

12. AllSaints Milo Leather Biker Jacket

AllSaints-Milo-Leather-Biker-Jacket

AllSaints is a British fashion brand from the United Kingdom. Since its founding in the 1990s, it has grown to an international presence that consists of more than 200 retail stores across Europe, North America, and Asia. The brand is mostly focused on fashion for women and men, though it also sells footwear and other accessories. It has primarily seen its popularity grow thanks to its popularity among a celebrity clientele.

AllSaints makes a number of leather jackets, but the Milo biker jacket is definitely one to write home about. This is a jacket that brings out the very best of two very different worlds – including a soft composition and sharp edges – since it is made of tender lamb leather and decorated to the nines with perfectly-placed zippers and buckles. It also has a distinctive slim fit.

 

13. Golden Bear Sherpa Jacket

Golden-Bear-Sherpa-Jacket

San Francisco brand Golden Bear may have its roots in ship workers in the San Francisco Bay since the 1920s, but it’s evolved today to combine both utilitarianism and high-end style. Although not as recognized outside of its native northern California, to know the stylish jackets of Golden Bear is to love them.

The sherpa jacket, in particular, is exquisite. Like any Golden Bear clothing piece, it’s designed to be worn for life, and fortunately, it comes with a style that will be sure to stay in fashion for decades to come, with brown distressed leather and a notable shearling collar that can be detached. 

 

14. Tom Ford Zip-up Leather Jacket

Tom-Ford-Zip-up-Leather-Jacket

Tom Ford is well-known for their high-end scents and formal clothing, but they have a strong foot in the casual jacket sphere as well. Not that this zip-up leather jacket is something you would wear to a casual house party.

Leather Jacket FAQs

What are the main styles of leather jackets?

While there are many different unique leather jacket configurations out there, there are four classic syles you should be most aware of. In no particular order, they are the leather bomber jacket (also called aviator jacket), the leather racer jacket (sometimes called moto), the trenchcoat, and the fencer. While bomber jackets and racer jackets tend to be more relaxed, the trenchcoat and the fencer are more dramatic.

How do I care for my leather jacket?

If you care for your leather jacket correctly you should have a wardrobe piece that’ll last you a lifetime. Most leather jackets cannot be washed at home and must only be handled professionally. The first step to taking proper care of your jacket is to adhere to this rule.

You should also keep your leather jacket dry as often as possible and keep it away from extreme heat or cold air. If you are not going to be wearing your leather jacket for a period of time, such as during a warm season, then you’ll want to be sure that you are hanging it up correctly – this means out of direct sunlight and in a properly-ventilated area.

How much should I pay for a leather jacket?

Determining how much to pay for a leather jacket is a very personal matter. For an authentic leather jacket, you will probably be paying, at a baseline, $500. However, this price can easily skyrocket from here, depending on the jacket’s materials and manufacturing process.

Some leather jackets can cost as much as $10,000! There is no right or wrong number – it’s instead about the brands you like and the style that you envision for yourself.
