Front door pair

Jan 16, 2010 2 Replies

I've bought a fairly old house (early 1900s) that had a recessed front door. Some decades ago (I suspect) the "porch" area had a pair of doors put on.


As it turns out these are horrible and falling apart now in any case. The trouble is, I'd like to replace with a door pair (straight swap), but I'm having trouble finding external doors that small. I need a couple of 27" doors, but the doors I'm looking at seem to start at 30". For an idea of what I'm after:

to the information, 3" is a bit much to be lopping off the edges of the door! Any ideas, or am I going to be lumbered with paying through the nose for custom made?


Thanks very much


Try searching for "French doors", although these usually come with a frame

A decent local joinery company could make you a pair for not too much. I had the opposite problem a year or two ago and had an extra wide door made to fit a shop front - it didn't break the bank.
