ABOUT INTERNAL DOORS

There are three main types of internal door: flush doors, solid timber doors, and moulded doors. Flush doors have plywood surfaces and a core to provide soundproofing. Solid timber doors may be constructed of hardwood or softwood, and typically have a frame with panels. Moulded doors are manufactured from medium density fibreboard, or similar material, with a smooth surface. Moulded doors can be made in shapes that mimic solid wood doors, but inevitably have a somewhat artificial appearance. However, moulded doors do perform well in terms of sound transmission and stability.

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