Cheap non-standard-size interior doors?

Our ex-council house was built to the weirdest measurements ever - nothing is straight and nothing is standard.
We still have the original interior doors - think 1970s ginger wood - and would love to replace them but can only find expensive custom-made doors.
Nothing from B&Q or the like will fit the space - they are wide and tall.
Anyone know where we can get doors? OH is not DIY-talented so we'd need to get someone to fit them for us.

I've bought some recently from these people and I'm delighted with the quality.

So you need 32" x80" Doors - they are an available size.
You never get a door exactly the right size so you always end up shaving a bit off.
Here are some for under £40

THanks everyone!
I know nothing about doors (and nor does OH) and we hadn't found anything to fit.
Will check all those links out.:cool: DFW Nerd Club member 023...DFD 9.2.2007 :cool::heartpuls married 21 6 08 :A Angel babies' birth dates 3.10.08 * 4.3.11 * 11.11.11 * 17.3.12 * 2.7.12 :heart2: My live baby's birth date 22 7 09 :heart2: I'm due another baby at the end of July 2014! :j

soo strange that you are asking that question, I was going nuts with the same thing about 2 weeks ago and my father in law came to the rescue - there is a company he knew about through a friend (they have a showroom in Scotland but i ordered it on the website) - they do doors tailored to order ( great for weird sizes) - I got mine delivered free of charge and they were really cheap - the website was www . thedoorworld.com
Hope this helps! I went all over the place before I came across that !
ps - i just noticed someone else has mentioned the same company in an earlier post? should have read the replies before writing this ! :rotfl: good luck!0
