I am finishing my basement and have two unusual sized rough closet door openings. One is 46w x 74h and the other is something like 74w x
Is this something that any woodworker can make for me? How much should I expect to spend? I don't need anything too fancy, just simple paneled doors or something. I just don't want plain flat doors. I am in the Boston area.
Thank you

You might try architectural salvage firms. I found doors for my bathroom remodel which were excellent matches for the other doors in the house. I couldn't have made them myself for three times the price I paid for them. Find the best match for your openings, and make or hire someone to make the jambs and casings to fit.
Which part of the Boston area Keith, I may be able to help you out.
I had this problem and found the simplest and least expensive solution was to install custom sized mirror doors. At Menard's the upcharge for ordering a custom size was minimal. I suppose because it's simpler to cut a mirror to size rather than redo wood framing. Unfortunately, Menard's took month's to get the order in. Something about Stanley Doors having financial troubles.
