THEY WERE MEGA! the door matches the windows and the garage door. it is just lines......................very very exciting! luckily we dont have visitors, so no one sees it, and we use the door from the garage to enter the house.

Re: Show off the first thing people see,your front door 14Jul 04, 2012 7:30 pm hi kerry-ann, we got a custom front door made (as most commercial doors are made from merbau and I couldn't bare to open a merbau door each day). We got $1000 credit back from builder and our custom front door only cost $1500 (Spotted Gum, 1000mm x 2400mm). Unfortunately I haven't got a pic to show you yet as it is due to go on later this week or next week... but I am very excited to see it. And a custom natural timber door could go well in the country house setting you mentioned....
