Doors for kitchen entry – what works best?
Kitchen opens to the dining area and I need a door that handles steam, grease, and frequent use. Pocket, swinging, or maybe glass? Suggestions from people with busy kitchens?

For kitchens, I’d go with something moisture-resistant and easy to clean. We have a solid core swinging door with a semi-gloss painted finish and it’s held up great against cooking splatters and humidity – wipes clean in seconds. Glass inserts are nice for light but show fingerprints more. If you want to keep the space open sometimes, a pocket or barn slider works too. Trio Doors has kitchen-friendly options with durable finishes. Their section for interior doors for kitchen includes solid and glazed styles that suit high-traffic areas.
