    Solid floor repair

    Good idea about the slight overlap on to the left bricks will give more strength. I could always level it the full width I guess just means the door will be sat on the concrete instead of brick. If I use a piece of 2 x 1 to get the straight edge and level to that it should be ok? Thanks for...

    More Kitchen woes

    Not an option as the gap using a 900mm one is 400mm so the 100mm would still mean the door won't open. I think we might go for a bi-fold option or even 2 300mm doors at worst case.
