Hi all.
I am getting closer to replacing the front door frame & door.
I was going to use mahogany but its too expensive.
On Laver's timber web site they have 100mm x 65mm redwood ( I assume its
scots pine)
with a pre-cut rebate.
My frame has sidelights and a toplight.
Should I use this same timber for all parts of the frame or order
non-rebated lengths for the timbers
that won't form the actual door frame?

Thanks.

Arthur



i would have a door frame made with integral sill and draft excluders
and a water bar
however if you have the neccessary skills and equipment you may do it
yourself
how does 65mm timber compare to whats already there?

The 65 x 100 is about the same size as what is already in place. I have an
old
mid terrace.
