If you require a different width or height, check PREMDOR's full range for alternative sizes. The 35mm thickness is standard for internal doors and compatible with typical UK door frames and hardware.

Finishing and preparation
The white base coat provides a primer-like surface, but you must sand and paint the door on-site to achieve your desired finish. The smooth faces are specifically designed to accept paint well. Light sanding with fine-grit paper will improve paint adhesion. Apply undercoat and topcoat as per your chosen paint system. The textured moulded panels add visual interest and help conceal minor imperfections. Allow adequate drying time between coats and ensure good ventilation during application.
- Light sand smooth faces before painting for better adhesion
- Apply undercoat and topcoat using quality interior paint
- White base coat acts as primer but repainting is essential
- Textured moulding helps hide minor surface marks
Pre-installation checks
Before fitting, inspect the door for any transport damage and check that the frame opening is square, level, and plumb. Measure diagonally across the opening in both directions; if measurements differ by more than 5mm, the frame is out of square and may need adjustment. Ensure the frame is in good condition with no rot or significant damage. Check that hinges, locks, and other hardware are available and compatible with 35mm thick doors. Have your painting materials ready so the door can be finished promptly after installation.
