M Compliant Internal Doors?

5 replies

Hi

We are looking to replace our internal doors downstairs. 2 doors (kitchen and front room) are standard with and I've ordered them, but WC is much larger - we need 860mm width. I thought it was an issue with the builder at first (lots of problems) but now think it could be because the door is M compliant (built 2013). Any ideas where I will get a door of this width? I've tried a few places with no luck!

Thanks

Is the actual door leaf 860mm or with the framing etc? I would normally expect it to be an 838 or 826mm door, best bet is a proper builders merchants jewson are normally pretty good that’s who I used to order from for work. With it being on the ground floor it sounds like it is for part M compliance

Thank you for your reply, it's the actual door leaf, I've managed to get 840 for the other two and they can be be sanded and fitted. Never thought of Jewson! I'll have a look, thank you

I agree with the Jewsons recommendation, but it would probably need to be a special order.

The alternative is for the joiner to pad out the door frame bot obviously it is not a smooth finish. This is ours - you can see the batons on the sides.

The door isn't flush though, I think because it is where the door was to the garage (been converted)
