Let's see -- widest he lists is a 36" so 36" - 3 stiles @7" -- 21"
Divide by 2 and voila! -- 10.5" panels. So he needs 12" stock at most.

Correcting the arithmetic boo-boo of using the total stiles width
instead of the remaining gives...

widest he lists is a 36" so 36" - 3 stiles @7" -- 36" - 21" -- 15"

15"/2 -- 7.5"

So even on the widest doors his panels are only 8"-10" if the stiles are
a little narrower. Again, he only needs 8-10" stock to start from.
