Searching for a door
A mate of mine needs to find a door to match this one: http://www.internode.co.uk/temp/door.jpg Anyone know where we can buy something like it? Needless to say the original maker no longer does that style... -- Cheers, John. /================================================== ===============\ | Internode Ltd - http://www.internode.co.uk | |-----------------------------------------------------------------| | John Rumm - john(at)internode(dot)co(dot)uk | \================================================= ================/ |

Needless to say the original maker no longer does that style... Take an holiday in India and ship a container of made to spec. doors just like it? That way he might get a return on his investment selling them off. OTOH, he could always make one himself. Although we live in a sophisticated part of the world, with 24/7 electricity supplied and unparalleled access to a variety of fairly cheap d-i-y machinery, there is no reason to believe that we can not make such things in this country. Have you considered asking this question on a d-i-y newsgroup? |

I had the external doors on my late parents' house made by a local cabinet maker, as the sizes were non-standard. I don't recall it being terribly expensive, but he did have about three months' work in hand, so it wasn't quick. The alternative is lots of router practice. Colin Bignell |

Making one would normally be the way to go (after all the mate who wants it is a professional joiner by trade), however the time scale, and other work that needs to be done on the place, dictate purchase of something ready made in this case. -- Cheers, John. /================================================== ===============\ | Internode Ltd - http://www.internode.co.uk | |-----------------------------------------------------------------| | John Rumm - john(at)internode(dot)co(dot)uk | \================================================= ================/ |
