Hallmarks of the style
- Arched openings. Pointed or round arches over the door.
- Deep panels. Raised or recessed fields with beading.
- Geometric stars and lattices. Girih-style patterns of repeated shapes.
- Floral and vine carving. Scrolls and flowers along stiles and rails.
- Metal and glass accents. Brass studs, knockers and coloured glass.
Wood and metal construction
Traditional doors are made of solid timber, often with many small pieces joined in a lattice. Modern versions use plywood, engineered cores or CNC-cut MDF with veneers, and steel doors can carry the pattern as pressed or welded panels. Pick the construction for budget and weather exposure.
Carving and CNC
Hand carving is expensive and slow, while CNC routing reproduces patterns quickly and consistently. Both can be good, if the cutter depth is right and corners are clean. See CNC door designs for more.
Glass inlays
Stained or coloured glass inlays in a lattice bring light and colour, and need laminated glass for safety. Place them away from the lock and seal them well against rain.
Colours and finishes
Dark walnut, mahogany and deep teal or green with brass accents suit the style, and gold leaf or painted details add richness. Use PU polish or durable enamel for entrances. See door polish colours.
Sizes and placement
Persian-style doors often have taller proportions, 2.4 metres or more, and double leaves with an arch. They need a strong frame and thick leaves of 45 to 55 millimetres. Frame the door with a stone or plaster surround to complete the look.

Making it work in a modern house
Use the style on the main entrance and keep the rest of the facade simple, so the door stands out. Avoid mixing too many patterns. Fitting should be done by a trained carpenter or fixer, and the frame and wall checked for level before the door is hung.
A short checklist
Choose the pattern and construction for your budget, use laminated glass in inlays, finish with PU and let the door be the feature. Keep the specification, drawings and finish details in one folder and compare at least two quotes on the same list, because small differences in thickness, core and hardware explain most price gaps. Ask for delivery and fitting dates in writing and inspect each door on arrival before the carpenter leaves.
