The doors in my house always feel kinda crappy. they don't close nicely, feel thin, feel cheap etc... As I'm about to fit new ones in my own stud walls and the likes, it occurs to me there's a number of factors going on, and I don't know what really matters.
I have reasonable solid pine doors already, and was thinking of ditching them for something new, but I'm currently thinking as far as the end feel of using them goes, the handle, barrel, striking plate and all that is possibly far more important that the door itself?
Wickes do cheap primed doors, just £20... Can these, when well fitted, feel like a decent (or decent enough) "new build" door? What kind of doors do these bland, sterile new builds tend to have? Right now, bland and sterile sounds great to me!
