happens then you may need to cut it slightly undersize (say 1/4" total)

strips, and then plane a bevel on the corners you wont even see the join.


If you have accurate means of cutting: cut two 1/8" strips off the sides, then
cut the door so that sticking these strips back on gives you the width you want.
Feasible with a table saw, or sawboard and thicknesser, and maybe you can pull
it off with just a sawboard...
