Want Hardwood doors, do I need new frames?

Recommended Posts

Hi

I'm thinking of changing my downstairs internal doors to Oak Hardwood doors.

With the doors being heavier will I need to replace the frames or will the existing frames be okay?

The existing frames will be sufficient,but you may need longer ,thicker screws to cope with extra weight.
