AlanUK Posted June 24, 2021 Share Posted June 24, 2021 I have a detached garage with room above, that I'm partitioning into two. To maximise available space I want the smallest reasonable door size. Wickes do one at 1981mm x 686mm. Would this pass muster with Building Control? Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ToughButterCup Posted June 25, 2021 Share Posted June 25, 2021 Just in case anyone finds this thread and is thinking of door sizes in general, here's a link to loads of diagrams about door sizes .... I found the charts helpful to explain why I'd made the rough openings the wrong size. Nuvver lesson learned. ? Its Friday. Be Happy. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks. small doors really need more space to either side of them or it becomes like walking through a tunnel and very difficult if carrying anything. (if opening the door towards you, you have to back up to open the door as opposed to stepping sideways) Wider doors lend themselves to having shelves or furniture closer without causing an obstruction.
