I'm after an (internal) door for our sitting room, however, the current one is 1700x725 which is a lot smaller than standard and I'm struggling to find one (not least of all in North Lincs).

Can anyone help or advise as to where I can get one from?

Thanks

Why can't you renovate the existing door? You'll have to make good the forehead marks in the door casing anyway.

Try hammering two or three matches into the screw holes, then screw the screws back in....

Use spent matches or you might need...

Oh, never mind...
