Garage Side Door

gas01 · 26 Aug 2010

Hi my garage has a side door which is a hollow door and rather tatty as its been used as a goal for a fair few years !!

My problem is I'm searching on google for doors but not sure what to look for, doors seem to be solid if they're exterior and this one is hollow, not panelled or anything.

Any idea as to what I am looking for here would help thanks

Assuming the garage is seperate from the house I'd suggest an FLB. Framed, ledged and braced door. If it's a standard sized opening you'll get one from a timber merchants.
And put a stop on the footy activity.

Hm, make sure you check the FLB door first. I know someone's who had quite a weak one and it got broken into easily.

Thanks, I just cant find any doors in B&Q or focus that look like mine.
Its the size of an external door - well it is an external door - but its constructed like an internal door, the insides are kind of hollow.

Just cant find them anywhere

You just need any external grade door that fits. Don't go like for like, the one you have sounds like an internal door.
If there are any window fitting companies near to you have a sniff about and ask if they've recently removed any exterior doors that are still servicable.
