Standard Door Width?

[Steve_M]

I have an opening that I want to put double french doors into. The opening is 1125mm wide. So I need 2 X 560mm doors. Is 560mm a standard size or is this going to be a custom made job? I've checked all the door sites I could find on the net but many don't list this size. I know 520 is a standard size but I don't want to add extra material if I can avoid it.

Thanks!

You're out of luck, Steve. The standard door widths are,

420
520
620
720
770
820
870

Wider doors are available but generally speaking, not kept in stock.

Just buy a couple of 570 doors and cut 10mm of each.

Don't forget to allow for rebating of the doors

Most of the door suppliers will cut standard size doors to your specified opening. I don't know which suppliers are available in Geraldton but I've just bought some french doors from the One Stop Door Shop in Balcatta and they were very helpful.

I had a non-standard size opening. No problem, they supplied a door that was cut down to fit. It still needed a bit of tuning before I could hang it but that is quite normal and nothing that a well-tuned and sharpened plane couldn't handle.

Fordy is right about the rebates. You'll need to specify which way the doors open and which one (right or left - swinging away) is the latch door.

Have you allowed for door frames?

The 1125 is allowing for a 30mm thick door frame. Thanks for the hints.
