Door Size Guide

Choosing a new door can be a little confusing - especially since doors in the UK don't have to be a specific size nor has the industry decided whether to fully move from imperial to metric sizes. Our door size guide below will let you convert all the common UK door sizes from imperial to metric and vice versa. Underneath each chart you can also find information regarding the thicknesses of each door type. Please note: not all doors are available in every size.

Don't know your required door size yet? Check out our handy guide on how to measure for a new door.

Important: when choosing a door size select the size closest to your required size and measurements. Most doors can usually be trimmed down by a few millimetres however this does not apply to certain types of doors. If in doubt, feel free to contact us for advice.
