What this door is for

Sizing and compatibility

Before ordering, measure your existing door frame opening or the space where you plan to install it. You will need to check that your frame is compatible with this width and height, and confirm that your hinges and hardware will suit a 44mm thick door.

What you get and finishing

The door arrives with a white base coat applied to both faces and edges. This base coat provides a clean, neutral starting point for your chosen finish. The smooth moulded faces are designed to accept paint, stain, or other finishes without additional surface preparation beyond standard site practices. The four-panel design is integral to the moulding, giving authentic period appearance with the durability of modern manufacturing.

No factory finish — you apply your chosen paint or stain

Pre-installation checks

Inspect the door on delivery for any damage to the moulded faces or edges. Store it flat or upright in a dry environment before installation, as moisture can affect the door and frame fit. Ensure your frame is square and level, and that all hinges, locks, and hardware are rated for use with fire doors and compatible with 44mm thickness. Confirm that your chosen paint or finish is suitable for use on fire-rated doors if required by building regulations in your area.
