wibbles   10 #1 Posted January 15, 2019 I have an opening into my kitchen, however the opening is too big for a standard door (approx 1050x2100), it's just a though opening formed with a lintel over and boarded/skimmed etc and I want t close it off or have the option to screen it off but I'm struggling to figure out what's best to do. I'm currently looking into a sliding door kit but I still can't get a door big enough to fit the opening and I don't even know where to begin looking. Can you buy bigger doors from somewhere that I can't find, is it easier to get a door made? I don't really know anyone skilled enough to point me in the direction of where to go but I really need to try and get it sorted so any advice or guidance would be much appreciated  Thanks Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
Top Cats Hat   10 #2 Posted January 15, 2019 Have you considered bifold doors?  They are generally larger than your standard 6'6" by 2'6" door. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
ttparsons   10 #3 Posted January 15, 2019 You could get made to measure sliding doors from somewhere like https://toffsbedrooms.co.uk/ to screen off the kitchen.  Alternatively get a builder to fill the gap with a stud wall, or make a stud wall to accommodate a standard door frame.

spider1   11 #5 Posted January 17, 2019 Best simply get a joiner in take out old door frame then put a new standard door frame in joiner will stud out to new door frame and put a new standard door in of your choice , A days job for a decent joiner problem solved forever, Might involve a bit of plastering to new door but at least its done right Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
bobbyt   10 #6 Posted January 27, 2019 You can get larger metric size doors think howdens do them in some ranges. Think largest is 926 x 2040 you could poss make this work using a thicker lining or pack off lining then covering gap with architraves.  Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
