Fixing and buying guide

What this door is and who it suits

This is an internal door designed for practical applications where cost-effectiveness and traditional appearance are important. It works well for homeowners and builders carrying out refurbishment projects, new build interiors, or straightforward door replacements. The paint grade veneer finish means you have complete control over the final colour and appearance, making it flexible for matching existing décor or joinery schemes.

Sizing and compatibility

The door measures 1981 mm in height and 686 mm in width, which is a standard UK internal door size. Before purchasing, measure your existing door opening or frame to confirm this size is suitable for your installation. The 35 mm core thickness is standard for internal doors. The lipped construction on both long edges means the door sits proud of the frame slightly, aiding alignment during installation and making it easier to trim if needed for refurbishment work.

• Height: 1981 mm
• Width: 686 mm
• Core thickness: 35 mm
• Lipped on both long edges for easier fitting

What you receive and pre-installation checks

You receive one unfinished internal door with unlacquered veneer faces and lipped long edges. Before installation, inspect the door for any damage in transit and check that your frame opening matches the stated dimensions. Ensure your frame is square and level – this is particularly important with lipped doors as the lipping aids alignment. The door is supplied unfinished, so plan your painting schedule before fitting if you prefer to finish it before hanging, or fit first and paint in situ depending on your project requirements.

Finishing and installation

This door is supplied unfinished with unlacquered paint grade veneer faces, giving you complete flexibility in choosing your paint colour and finish. The lipped long edges simplify installation and are particularly valuable in refurbishment projects where the door may need trimming to fit existing frames. The trimmable design means you can adjust the width if required, though you should plan any trimming before painting. Apply your chosen paint finish to all faces and edges to protect the veneer and achieve your desired appearance.
