Hi,

I notice my future neighbor wrap existing developer door into high class wood door. because i do not have her number, i hope i can find at here how to do this thing or any supplier does it.

she told me instead change entire door, she ask those contractor to wrap with new skin/ wood. it totally look like another door but in fact its same door from developer.
it really look magic. she has changed the rest of his other room door as well.

anyone know such thing or where i can get this kind of things?

polyutherene laminate if im not mistaken
can be bought at hardware shop^^

hmm.. when it was wrap, it doesn't look like kena wrap..look like new expensive wood door

r u sure it can easily bought in hardware shop? i doubt...

Interesting...I want to wrap my toilet door too.Can PM if got contact..Thanks.

Friend I guess what u mentioned is timber veneer wrapping.. Maybe some photo is a good guidance..

thats veneer. or laminate for lower cost.

fuzagi do u provide that solution? if yes, a normal door will cost how much?

normal door costs from rm900 onwards for veneer.

Much more expensive than a solid door.

but my neighbour did it..she said is cheaper than buy new door..

Hi Vincent,

ID works always come with a cost..

possible to get a solid door for less than 900?

Yes, why not? I assume your "normal door" is 3'x7' right?

Yes, 3' x 7' is standard size.. I also agreed that you can get Solid Door at RM900 or even lesser.. Anyhow those Solid Door are standard Panel Door design with thinner thickness as well as low grade timber...

Actually veneer can be applied to both solid or hollow door...

RM 900, can get the door + installation + paint for some standard design.

If you need the design of door of "look / feel" like one piece door without small drain "longkang" it maybe about 800 - 1.2k depend on quality. Another cheaper version will be getting the hollow type using ply wood, and filled the inner hollow portion with small wood. This is cheaper and feels like solid too.

I am doing lots of this research and asking around for my house.

Did you check the Timber Species... Or maybe mine to share your quotation...

Really depend on design for price. I was given a basic simple door design "conventional 8 box door" for the price of 600+- for nyatoh wood. It can go cheaper depend what you want to do with the door, to use lacquer or paint. If paint you can use grade 2 door which is around 300 - 400+-

Installation is about 150 to 200+-, if use bigger lock installation may need to add extra 100.

I don't any door quote, not decide what to buy yet. My last visit, i brought only 5 door frame. This cost me about RM 1.6k, I got 4 frames of 3' x 7, and 1 frame of 60" x 96". All the frame are single piece nyatok no joining on length. The wood "flower" on this frame is nice.

For Standard door Resak Frame (you need to paint, can't be lacquer) is cheap only RM 160+-

Thanks for your detail info... Cheers
