Internal Flush Doors? Who? Where?

    I am looking to replace old tired paneled doors with new flush ones. Ideally - prefinished and fire-proof (but the latter is sorely for noise reduction purposes). I have been looking around quite a bit and was surprised to find nothing beyond the very basic variety. For example, B&Q here does one type (ply finished) for ~40 euro but it looks rather dire. Door sizes are standard. I would appreciate any pointers where I can find them in Ireland. Alternatively, can these be made to order and what price would I be looking at? Pls see attached image for an example of the look I am trying to achieve.

    Thanks!

    Carol Joinery do good deals when fitting a whole house.

    The yellow pages is your friend here. Joinery is the word you are after.

    You may also have to replace frames as well .

    Consider pre hung units with quality hardware

    Basta type cheap hinges will not carry the weight of a fire door very well. 3 hinges per door.

    What you are talking about will not be cheap. Fire rated stuff is expensive and heavy.

    Thanks. Fire-rating is not must-have requirement. Flush (no paneling is). I would prefer solid door simply for noise insulation. Carol Joinery is on my list but given standard size I was hoping to be able to buy ready-made and sprayed one. I am surprised as in UK fire-rated flush doors are quite inexpensive and widely available.
