Internal Doors Odd Sizes????

scottishf

I wonder if anyone could tell me where to get some internal doors which measure 28.5" wide and 80" tall, cant get them in any of the DIY Shops

could you not buy one thats slightly bigger and cut it down to size

Most doors on sale everywhere are hollow inside, so if you cut them down its no good

We have got the same problem.I am starting to look online now at made to measure services.Had to do the same for our kitchen units as all the doors were not standard sizes and got made to measure online cheaper than would have been in the DIY shops

even if doors are hollow you can still take a few mil of the top bottom and sides

Cut door down to size. Push egg boxing stuff down a bit inside door. Remove plywood/hardboard from the bit you cut off leaving you with the wood bit - glue and push wood bit inside door.Then put a couple of G cramps on until glue hardens.

ebay. You'll find what you need evenutally. Get search results sent to you every day and check religiously. I've gotten doors in the size that I need, in new condition for £1! Just a case of watching and waiting.

why dont you reduce your door frame to accept a standard door
