hi all - diyvirgins, not quite, but not tackled such an important project, so any advice welcomed...
we are building a larder type cupboard, one side and the back is against solid brick work, the other side we will form by 3x2 frame, with plasterboard, then skimmed. likewise, the front will be about a foot either side of the access
which will be studwork like the side.
can we hang a regular internal door easily on that sort of frame?
we could also consider sliding doors, or something like wardrobe style doors or even sliding fabric panels like they sell at ikea.
not decided what is the easiest and what would be most appealing to the eye - it is in a room used daily by the family and guests - so its got to look the part really!
or for those chippies amongst you - what ballpark figure are we looking at for someone to come in and do a proper frame, door and architrave?
thanks in advance
