Internal French door

Anyone any advise on this topic.

Thanks Martin

Fit the frame first making sure it's true and square by packing from the brickwork, etc. Then plaster to make good.

The door *must* comply with external standards, or the conservatory will fall under the realm of an extension. It then has to meet the requirements of the building regulations (which most conservatories wont) and probably require planning permission.

Yes, don't top-post! :-)

Can't *think* of any reason myself; but if I were you I'd simply ring the BCO and ask him the question.

How are you filling the gap? If it were me, I'd probably attach 2" thick timber to either side of the opening; fit the french *windows*; then make good with plasterboard/plaster.

always plaster second and I'd go for the internal doors and a good doo

supplier should have several different standard sizes in stock

I see your point, however I contacted the building inspector (unfortunately not the one doing the inspection) and head said it would be ok as long as they were good internal doors. hmmm think I might give them a call back and question this further. Pity I've already reduced the opening :-(

Martin.

I checked this out with the building inspector yesterday and he said that good fitting (i.e. minimum draft) internal doors would be fine.
