Dutch (external) split door too narrow for opening

[joeninho]

Hi guys,

We have an external split Dutch door that has seen better days. It measures 1970 x 840.

We have seen a decent, affordable replacement, although it measures 1970 x 810.

Would it be possible to fit this door in our opening? If so, should I add some timber to the existing frame on the non hinge side?

Or is it a bad idea to try and fit this door? We have not purchased it yet.

Any advice gratefully received.

Cheers,

Joe.

Could you not get one in 1981mm x 838mm, 6ft 6" x 2ft 9", 78" x 33"

I probably could, Crank, but this is a Facebook marketplace door that would save us a significant amount.
