Building a Home Renovating Design Dilemma

Where to buy good quality internal doors?

5 months ago

Hi all,

I need to buy some nice quality internal doors. I'm wary of buying online because you just can't tell if they are lightweight or good solid doors. Can anyone recommend a good place to order from please? I'm after either 1930s one panel over 3 panels, or half glazed 4 panel doors ideally traditional style so with some beading, not ultra modern clean edge style. They will be painted so no need to be any particular wood.

Has anyone bough anything similar recently please? Thanks in advance!

I don't know what part of the UK you are but we have some fabulous reclamation yards here in the South West where you could source something from the exact period of your house. Just a thought. We bought victorian doors from them and they were in perfect condition.

I would love to do that but my problem is that I need 4 upstairs and 6 downstairs - so finding enough of the same might be a challenge! We are mid way through an extension so this is just a tiny part of the door challenge! I'm in Cambridge if anyone can suggest anywhere round here to look though as I'm stumped!

I would also definitely go white if the windows are on the green wall. Will be much more natural to tie the accent wall with the stark wht contrasting walls. Always a very chic contemporary look. Also very relaxing as opposed to the treatments standing out when you already have your standout feature- the green accent wall. Great white bed you ordered! Then I love all the blue/green/ silver accent advice. I did a similar room in purples/greys/ whites and we used great posted prints of florals with a little oriental flair in nice big mats w frames. You could do florals or nice big botanicals in greens would be very fresh and modern!! White or silver frames or maybe even the shock of black would be cool.

I have got a deal online to buy internal Shaker doors, they are 44mm thick and are made from laminated softwood and MDF, can someone please advise if this combination of materials would be a good quality door? Thanks in advance

Hi. Have you ever considered a real interesting eye catching piece of art work to really brighten up an area, I think a select piece of art would really make the space stand out, add interest, colour, texture and add a great talking point to the room.... Please check out my website if you like the idea and please get in contact, commission work is also welcomed so if you like a particular style I can do in a select colour palette and size as an original piece…..I’m also able to produce all original paintings in high end print format, in any size same or smaller than the original. (all within proportions to the original so not to cause distortion) All prints shown are Giclee prints onto soft textured fine art media. All prints come with a white border these can be made to measure too. So lots of options, www.guigsart.co.uk

Paint over or rip out the fitted wardrobe?

My first instinct was to move it to a garage/basement for good storage but the more I think about it the more I think I'd prime inside and out with Kilz then apply a couple of coats of white semi-gloss (use good quality paint.. Benjamin Moore) in the same white that you'd use for all the trim in your room. Be sure to lightly sand and 'tack rag' between coats. If the handles are removable by all means remove them prior to painting...fill in holes, sand smooth and paint as previous sentence. Set up inside the way you find most functional. Buy nice new knobs ( maybe crystal?) and, if it is as tall as it appears, have crown molding installed to create a custom look. It is probably far better built than anything else you could find.

We’re based in Staffordshire and sell doors.
I would look at the following websites:
J B Kind
LPD Doors
Both only supply to the trade but if you see doors you like on there they will advise who is your nearest supplier who might possibly also have a showroom.
