Do these doors exist?

We have just taken out an archway from our lounge into our kitchen. The layout is difficult to explain but the door has to open into the lounge. The doorway is very close to the ceiling under the stairs so this also limits the door - so it has to open into the lounge and onto the sofa.

The door is 30inches. What I'd really like to go in there is what I can only describe as like bifold door but without the hinges. So, two 15 inch doors which open independently. Like French doors, but much smaller.

The closest I can get is adapting a bifold door. Is there anywhere I can get French doors for a 30 inch opening?

Thanks in advance for ideas, and sorry if that doesn't make sense!!! (Sleep deprived)

A lot of the doors in our house are none standard size and the builder had them made to specific sizes . So a carpenter / builder might know , or a place which sells standard doors might have someone or be able to put you in touch with someone who can make doors to measure .

A chippy would be able to make what you want, shouldn't be too expensive in labour, just depends on the material you use. ie solid oak is more expensive that MDF.

Thank you for the replies. I'll get DH to ask the carpenter who is doing the work tops for us :)
