Jan has asked if it would be possible to replace the exterior aluminium framed glass sliding door and window in the laundry. She doesn’t like it and would prefer a solid timber door.
After doing some measuring I believe it would be possible to replace the sliding door on the left side with a 720mm wide solid timber door. The area to the right would be framed in 4x4 and clad externally with a cement fibre panel. One the inside there would be a Formica wet wallboard panel. The loss of light would make the laundry dark which means the door will require a small window. I could either make the door or purchase one. Having estimated the required materials purchasing looks the cheaper option
The timber door would open inwards and a new security screen door would open outwards. My only concern is whether a 720mm door has sufficient width (we’re not getting any thinner!).
