Default Moulded 6 panel doors

I am thinking to replace a number of (6) internal doors with a molded 6
panel type. Will there likely be a restriction on where the door handles
have to be fitted and the hinges? I could move the existing plates in
the frame and hinge to suit and fill, but was hoping to get away with
them without having to move them to suit the new doors.


I doubt if there will be a problem for hinges, I'd expect the "wood" bit
to be full length. I did recently help fit a few of these and my
impression was that the latch side insert covered a reasonable distance.
I can't remember for the moment whether the length of the supported area
was marked.
