Picture 1. Before.
This pair of Louvre doors (shown above) were past their prime with rotting wood and paint peeling off. The solution was to replace with new doors and a door frame. The doors were large, standard off-the-shelf louvre doors were not big enough to use, also they had to be suitable for outside use (exterior doors). In this scenario the answer if to build bespoke doors and a better door frame from the correct materials and at the exact size required, so thats what we did. The new bespoke wooden doors (shown below) fit perfectly, look smart and ready for painting/protection against the elements.
Louvre style doors were correct for this job as this is a gas cupboard.
Picture 2. The finished result. Just some painting to complete!
PB Tip: If you are unsure what type of doors to fit to a gas cupboard check with a professional from the Gas Safe Register (Corgi Registered). http://www.gassaferegister.co.uk/
