SimonD Posted January 29, 2022 Share Posted January 29, 2022 I've been looking around online and also with local suppliers for some internal doors - 2040 x 826 - and relevant door linings. I don't know whether it's down to current supply issues, but what I'm finding with this size is that for one specific glazed door, I'm down to choosing either XL Joinery or LDP Doors and with the linings, I'm being told I've got the option of 22mm thick linings because the 28mm linings available are for grooved for 726/838 doors (yes maybe I just need to groove them myself or make my own linings). Jeld-wen only supply this type of door 1981 high and as per discussion with my local rep, they're not accepting bespoke orders right now, or at least not from me! So my main question is whether you can recommend a door supplier and/or manufacturer I can try that isn't necessarily the above two as I'm not 100% convinced of the quality? And also where I might get 28mm thick door linings for 826 doors as it's more expensive for me to buy in finished size timber and make my own linings than buy the sets? Ta!

Dreadnaught Posted January 29, 2022 Share Posted January 29, 2022 I wonder, how did you solve it? I was looking at pre-hung doors recently (I will need 8x) and nobody in the UK seems to be manufacturing pre-hung doors any more, or at least not for small manufacturing runs like mine. I contacted Jeld-Wen and they said no. And XL joinery don't make the door design I want. Predor, with their Speedset Plus option, might do but I am fully expecting them to tell me they only do those for large orders. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know you say you have solved the problem, but just saying I am happy with the quality of my XL joinery doors. But i made my own linings (Oak) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now, I've just realised what I found was clear glazed not obscure glazed. Now I'm back to the search for just this one door! I'm going to make my linings.

SimonD Posted January 31, 2022 Author Share Posted January 31, 2022 For the sake of narrative, I've just put in an order with Todd Doors, and also ordered at set of their door linings - laminated hardwood 28mm thick, so just want I needed. Delivery should be a week Wednesday. For reference, the lining width I first tried to order turned out to be in production...with a 5 month wait for delivery! Some things are still silly with supplies right now. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Russell griffiths Posted January 31, 2022 Share Posted January 31, 2022 How much are the Duran ones mr @pocster the ones I like are £700 per door set. Which is a bit silly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which is a bit silly. Depends on door styles/handles etc. etc. But around 1k each inc vat ( new build so I get that back ). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
