this is going to depend upon what sizes & styles that you need/want. If you just want something made from plain/painted mdf or mfc or perhaps timber it should be fairly easy to find someone (albeit probably not as cheap as an industry standard door off the shelf). If you want something in e.g. vinyl wrap it will be much harder.0

BUFF said: If you want something in e.g. vinyl wrap it will be much harder.Ive used Homestyle in the past for vinyl wrapped doors. They can do custom sizes for a 10% extra, and will also drill hinge holes where you want them.Having had the doors for a while now, I have found they don't cope with heat too well - Along side an integrated oven, that is no surprise, but I'm also having the vinyl peeling on a draw front just above a plinth heater. Bottom line is, quality is OK if you want something for a cheap make-over and don't expect it to last more than 5-7 years. If you want something that will last, go for solid timber.
Any language construct that forces such insanity in this case should be abandoned without regrets. –

As in everything there are variations in quality. I have some vinyl-wrapped doors here that are 20+ (probably 25+) years old & look like new.0
