Internal Doors Repairs

Another, probably silly sounding, question!

I have a number of internal doors that have been kicked through (don't ask!) and that I want to repair rather than replace if possible.

They aren't anything special, just plain wooden and it doesn't bother me that they are a bit flimsy (in fact, something of an advantage that they CAN be kicked in - again, don't ask!) .

I was wondering whether it would be feasible to just apply another sheet of very thin ply over the face of the doors and repaint then rehang. Does this sound do-able or would the fit be thrown out?

Thanks

What's wrong with acting like an ostrich and burying your head in the sand sometimes? Some days it can stop you from having to look at the lemmings!

If you want to paint them, a plain "Redicoat" door will cost you about the same as a thin sheet of ply.

Sounds like one seriously bad putty tat in your house. Would a cat flap help ?

Or is it the ostrich that's doing it?

As per Lukes post, new doors will be lower cost, but more effort to cut in the new hinges and new locks etc.

You don't generally have cut hinges in especially on cheap hollow core doors - use the non-mortice type hinge and simply screw them on.
A 2040x820x35 redicoat door will cost you about $25

Shows how long since I've bought a new hinge

Sorry I have been a while responding to the suggestions which are much appreciated. I have decided to go with new doors (the "puddy tat" has left home/grown up and no, I shan't be getting a cat flap in the door - at 18 years old she can use her key and the bally front door same as everyone else!!)
