Mahogany is not only aesthetically pleasing, but it’s also incredibly durable and ages exceptionally well. Its warm and unmistakable reddish-brown hue deepens over time rather than fading, which is what makes mahogany wood so unique when compared to other wood types.

Top 10 Mahogany Doors

When it comes to adding mahogany doors to your home, the first step is picking the style that best fits the design you’re going for. A few of our favorites include:

What Color to Stain Mahogany Door?

One of the main reasons mahogany wood is so popular is because of its unique natural color—a light pink to reddish-brown hue that deepens and darkens with age. Furthermore, it exhibits a distinct wood grain of uniform lines, which is unique to the mahogany wood species. This wood species is typically free from blemishes and knots, making it even more desirable.

It’s customary to stain a wood door in order to show off the wood’s unique grain patterns and colors. However, knowing which stain color is best depends on the wood species, as some deserve a clear stain while others shine with a dark stain.
Given the distinct color and wood grain of mahogany wood, it is almost always stained or clear coated to highlight the beautiful texture and color tones of the wood. For mahogany door stain, Rustica recommends a clear stain finish or glaze that will emphasize the natural beauty of the wood.

When ordering a custom door through Rustica, you’ll first want to select which door style you like best—such as one of the styles listed above. Once you decided on the door style, you’ll find a list of customization options on the right-hand side of the screen. When you click on “Select Wood Species,” it will show you a dropdown menu of the different types of wood for doors that Rustica offers. There, you will find the option for mahogany wood.

To select your stain for mahogany door, scroll down the customization options list again until you reach “Select Door Finish.” Here, you’ll find the clear stain finish option or the glaze option for your mahogany door stain. Below the finish option, you’ll find the “Select Door Texture” section. This customization is optional, and allows you to design your custom door to appear weathered or distressed for a more rustic look.

Can Mahogany Doors Be Painted?

While any wooden door can be painted, certain species are better stained than painted. For mahogany wood, this is certainly the case. Mahogany is most desired for its unique grain pattern and distinctive natural color. Because of this, it’s not recommended to paint mahogany wood because the paint would cover up mahogany’s most desirable traits.

If you would like a painted wooden door, poplar is the best wood for painting because it’s affordable and doesn’t have knots or distinct grain patterns show through. In fact, it’s almost always painted and rarely stained because a stained finish reveals tones of green and violet in the wood.
