Browse Forums Windows & Doors 1 Dec 15, 2012 8:10 am Hi I was wondering if someone can tell me what the standard and tolerances are for the distance between internal doors and flooring.

Hi Boosho Standards & Tolerances state "Unless additional clearance is required for removable toilet doors or air ventilation, a clearance between the door and floor finish is defective if it's greater than 20mm after installation of the floor covering" Good luck Re: Gap between floor and internal doors 6Dec 17, 2012 8:59 am Thanks dirkadirk..
