Sorry about this but we are trying to source some new pine bedroom doors and I don't know what they are called but they are the sort you see in farmhouses etc, with a high latch and those big hinges that come quite a way across the door.
Does anyone known what these type of doors are referred to, or where might be a good place to get some from. I did wonder if it would be easier/cheaper to buy plain pine doors and add the latches and hinges ourselves?
Thanks in advance,
Tony

Sounds like a ledged and braced door with "tee" hinges.

Magnet do them but they are external ones so may look a bit rough for internal use and may not be the right size for wardrobes. I made some for a client a few weeks ago, not too difficult if you have the right tools/machines.

and T hinges http://www.screwfix.com/app/sfd/cat/pro.jsp?id=14245&ts=20475

usualy involves moving the door stops
cutting out oblongs in the archatrave for the hinge or removing the archatrave fixing the t hinge then refixing the archatrave over the top
