Best Doors Carbon Core Door Set
Doors are available as single leaf or pair leaf, finished in a variety of facings.
The standard door set is intended for interior use in dry conditions, however it is suitable for exterior conditions with the appropriate facing.
Carbon Core door sets are preferred where light weight and impact resistance is required.
If hardware is to be fixed to the door face it may require blocking in the door and so must be specified at time of order.
