How to find a right Door for your Home
Internal doors do far more than keeping your Homes Safe, they add an individual touch to your home that truly reflects your personal style. Would you like to create a modern feel with moulded doors, or go for more of a traditional look with elegant veneer doors? Should you choose a e panelled door or light up your rooms through glazed panel doors? Or if you're a bit short on space, why not go for bi-fold doors? All in all, you'll find plenty of great options for you.
Measure your door size
Before choosing your internal door, reach for your tape measure and see what size you need. Here's what you need to do.
How wide?
First, measure the top, middle and bottom of the frame opening where the door will go. Use the widest measurement to find the width of your new door.
How high?
Again, measure in three points (this time to the left, centre and right) within the frame opening where the door will be. The longest length will tell you the height of your new door.
Any adjustments?
When you've taken your measurements, compare them with the sizes available in the style you like. While you're choosing, remember you can plane the edges to reduce the size of your door - but you can't make it bigger.
Choose your door
Now comes the time to choose the style and type of door you want.
