I am thinking to embark on a DIY project to decorate my cheapo plywood doors with these laminates on my own.

Anybody has done similar work before? Please share if you do. Would like to know if this is feasible to do it.

Btw, where can I get these laminates at low quantity and its price? (To cover only 5 doors of standard size)

Feedbacks are very much appreciated. thanks smile.gifAttached Image

It will cost you much more than buying standard door ply wood or otherwise.

There is a lot of work flatening the skeleton to equal width and making it straight, only machine can do that with ease. You also got to prepare for the installation of lock.

Ready made are cheaper becasue factory made faster and cheaper in large quantity. Basic economy tells you. If you really like the look of the laminated ply wood just nail and glue to the ready made plywood door will be much cheaper and easier to diy. just my 2 cts
