Internal door heights

[chriselevate]

I’m considering adding underfloor heating to my ground floor. Currently my internal doors are 1979mm high and 1965mm if I measure to the door stop.

If I raise the floor level (to have an extra 24mm) I’ll have 1955mm and 1941mm. Would you consider these to be ok or too low?

Thanks for your advice as always.

I would but I am 6' 6" tall.

So you think the reduced height is ok or not? Thanks.

Any other thoughts on this please?

Hi, I screeded a floor and raised it by approx 40mm, I fitted a 78x33 (cut down by 40mm). I was a bit worried but it's fine in use and not noticeable, ( I'm 6' tall).

They’re OK, no worse than you might find in a Ye Oldie house from 200 years ago for instance. A tall future purchaser may be put off but probably wouldn’t notice. Stick a chunk of something on the floor of the appropriate thickness and walk through it to simulate your proposal, see if you feel it’s any different! You’re living there.
