Hi all

We are looking for an internal door and the height needs to be 1942mm. We like the look (and price!) of some oak veneered/engineered core doors. But they all seem to only come in standard sizes, the heights of which are 1981mm.

We've made some enquiries and it seems that taking 40mm off the height would invalidate the guarantee. Fair enough.

What I wondered though was whether it will make the door unstable or cause other issues? We plan to paint the door.

Cheers

Will be OK, but defeats the object when painting a veneered door, you buy it for it's appearance, might as well buy a cheaper door if it's to be painted.
 
Like a pine door?

We agree but have not seen any pine doors (or non veneer doors) that are cheaper. We are after something half glazed..... Any suggestions would be great.

Cheers
