Translucent or solid core style interior doors?

9 years ago

I updating my entire doors from flush(flat) type door to either one panel shaker style translucent or solid core interior doors. That will be used on all interior doors including bedrooms and bathrooms.

I was going to use translucent style but people think it might be inappropriate for both bedroom and bathroom use because for bedroom might not be enough sound insulation and bathroom people ishtar feel insecure.


What do you think? Which door style should I go with?

    Definitely #1. I'm curious about the rationale for translucent interior doors.
