• If you're prepared to deal with the people on it, can be worth checking Facebook marketplace. We picked up a full set from some guy renovating an old place for 20 a door. Should have paid a bit more attention to how square they were, but have made them work.

    This is what to watch with old doors. If they’re warped or out of square your £20 door will quickly become a £250 door once a carpenter has had to mess about with it to make it fit.

    The doors in our house are oversize so I had to cut them from 8x4 blanks. Each one took two days to cut, edge, swing, fill and decorate.
