ABOUT INTERIOR DOORS

The cheapest type of interior door is the flush door, typically with a plywood surface and a solid sound-proofing core. Higher quality interior doors are made from solid timber, either softwood or hardwood. Moulded interior doors are made from compressed particle board, with a smooth skin. They can be made to resemble traditional solid timber doors, but inevitably appear artificial and machine-made, even when painted. Moulded interior doors do have significant practical advantages in terms of stability and sound proofing.

The leading UK suppliers of interior doors, listed below the panel of sponsored links, have comprehensive and informative websites, with information on materials for interior doors, and types of interior doors.
