Standard internal door widths (panel)

Oct 17, 2006 5 Replies

Hello,



Can anyone tell me what sizes internal panelled doors tend to come in?



The door is of a standard height (I think - around 6 foot 6 inches) but the width of this door is 24 inches. In the past I have cut a panelled door down to a pretty slim size and it looked a bit odd (to my eyes - wife thought it was ok).



Thanks, Rich.



No chance of widening the opening I suppose. 2ft would drive me crazy

Usually 27", 30", 33". I put a 27" bathroom door on so it wouldn't open so far into the room. Looks a bit slim. I would think less than 27" would be rather narrow, especially if you have broad shoulders. Having said that, there's a bodybuilder at the gym that has to turn sideways to get through a normal sized door ! Simon.

Disability regulations have meant that IIRC its 800mm or so minimum these days for a 'new build'...

Don't think my last post worked. 24 inches is a standard non-standard size and I bought some recently for a cupboard for under 20 quid each.

More than you will find in the sheds. Check out a specialist door supplier. For example

has 78x24 as a standard size
