Interior pannel doors...

Had some decorating work done downstairs and the next job to do is all the glossing, which is terribly boring... Anyway we have been thinking about replacing the doors with some half decent panel doors, but I cant seem to find anywhere that does angle top ones as we have one under the stairs which would need replacing too.

Anyone know where we can get some?

    I have seen firms that do them, although off the shelf they must have a set angle (perhaps 42 degrees?). You can get bespoke made if need be, allow 200+ for a door!

    Our carpenter just lopped the correct angle off ours for the barn and stuck veneer back over the cut. I've never seen them available in shops or in Howdens and H who lives in these places just looked at me like I was mad. There's no standard for where the cut needs to start across the length and width of the door, nor the angle.

    Think they have to be custom-made/modified. You could DIY it...instructions here: http://www.ultimatehandyman.co.uk/doors/cut_panel.htm

    I thought about doing the beading trick, but panel doors the beading goes into the door normally.

    Never thought about bying teo doors to make a good one! Brilliant!
