Thinking of buying 5 x Int. Doors, all different dimensions - none standard.

e.g. 738x1951, 762 x 1958, 533x1975, 610x1844

My question is if i buy standard b+q, Wickes etc can they be trimmed 20/30mm etc?

Any thoughts much appreciated.

When trimming any door to size you must take into account 3 things;


1/ Trimming the stile will it expose the joints or core material if a veneered door.

2/ Will any of the door furniture fit afterwards i.e. will the lock or latch fit in the stile of the door and will the door handle fit.

3/ Will the door look rubbish afterwards due to trimming i.e. will the stile, top and bottom rail look totally out of proportion

See guide for parts of the door
