We bought some awesome -- but expensive -- interior doors from Trustile. The MDF doors are very solid, straight, and our contractors said they were very easy to hang. I didn't order solid, flat panel doors but it's worth calling Trustile to ask.

Graham, Marshfield, and Algoma are companies we use a lot at work. Try searching for solid core flush wood doors if you want some more ideas...

Just about every door manufacturer offers a flush, solid core door in various sizes. You can spend a fortune through a boutique supplier or you can go to the big box, but you're going to be getting the same basic product. I've paid ~$100 each for 8ft. solid core wood veneer doors. Paint grade should be cheaper.

I want to know where they got that awesome rabbit, elephant, giraffe area rug! Can that info be shared?

You are so lucky to have full height doorways! I tried to modify the ones in our house to be like that, but was, umm, overruled.

In your case, what may look even better is to go with doorways without trim casing -- it means a high degree of careful finishing (because you don't use trim to cover up the mess), but it is a very clean, very beautiful look.

As well, you could go with hinges that are hidden on the side of the door, and which cause the door to pivot open. Damn! forget what they are called, but I have the links buried here somewhere...

Anyways, just go with a plain flat slab paint-grade door. Check with the big box hardware store first to see if they can get you a door in the size you need; it will likely be a bit cheaper than a door store. We had to custom order all our doors (nobody does solid-core and flat slab it seems!), but it wasn't that expensive or take that long.

Good luck!

coloringbook -- I could be wrong, but it has a Dwell look about it.

My loft used to be an office, and it came with doors like this. Maybe an archi-salvage place that takes office renovation cast-offs could help.

try adriatic wood products. usually we have millworkers custom-make these... but that's not a realistic price point for most of us! at that height you need to be careful about bowing/warping- we have our millworkers create a honeycomb engineered substrate to prevent this. the hidden hinges the commenter above mentioned are soss; you shouldn't use them on high-traffic doors as the hinges will sag over time. make sure to use 4 hinges per door (this will also help with the warping).

Here are the invisible hinges:

And here are the pivot hinges:

Good luck, and have fun!

I just replaced my bathroom door with an 8 foot tall hollow-core - $300 at Metropolitan Lumber. I used 3 narrow hinges.

I priced some solid core oak 8 foot doors on-line and they were $500

Do NOT go to Home Depot - their doors get terrible reviews.

Which doors at Home Depot supposedly got terrible reviews??

Home Depot receives doors from a number of different manufacturers, and I doubt that all of them are bad. In fact, the big box stores use many of the same manufacturers.

We bought our custom-sized solid-core paint-grade doors at Home Depot, and they are perfectly fine -- great quality. They are a special order item, and are not stocked in the store.

that *is* a DwellStudio rug, the Gio.

Although it is a 2009 model, they were clearing it out in June, and it is no longer on the Dwell site.

You might have luck finding it through another retailer online, or give Dwell a call (they might know which retailer may still have some stock).
