I'm relocating it and could do with taking it down by an inch at each
side.

It says "engineered" which could mean the insides aren't what you'd
expect ...

That usually means MDF core with real wood overcoat...

Hence you *might* expose the MDF at the sides when cutting it. If that
happens then you may need to cut it slightly undersize (say 1/4" total)
and then plant a pine lippings on the cut edges - if you add 1/8"
strips, and then plane a bevel on the corners you wont even see the join.

It's typical that the two sizes nearest to that needed sare so far out. I
wondered if it might be easier/neater to get the narrower one and build it
up a bit.
Still, putting-on tools tend to be more expensive than taking-off tools
(with slight change in wording, also applies to another subject!).
