Default Kick plates for internal door

We are improving access to our downstairs toilet for my father, who
uses a wheelchair. This has included a double-swing door, so he can
push it away from him whichever direction he needs to go through. We
have found (before the painting was finished!) that this results in
marks on the door from the wheel of the wheelchair nearest the hinge
side. We have read about PVCu kickplates supplied by a firm in Leeds,
but these are rather expensive at £36 each, plus £20 carriage.

Can anyone suggest a readily-available alternative?
