Guide to Buying Doors

The first thing to consider when buying doors is that there are two general types - exteral doors, which are stronger and more durable, such as those on indoor-outdoor boundaries, and internal doors, which could be in everything from rooms to wardrobes. It's important to distinguish betwen the two types when choosing.

External doors

Obviously, if you are considering an external door, you need to consider durability and security. Not only should an external door resist wear and tear and the elements, but it should also provide protection against intruders. Bear this in mind when looking at prospective choices.

Internal doors

With internal doors, the range of applications can be far greater, so you may have to think more about the factors involved, making sure to consider sizes and practical aesthetics.

It is important to work out which kind of door you are looking for ahead of time, as you will find that depending on the company, they may specialise in one kind but not the other.

In short, consider type, aesthetics, and possibly most importantly, compatibility. Make as many measurements as possible, and ensure that your chosen door will fit the frame it is given. The same goes for any locks or handles involved. Don't get caught out later!
