Source for interior doors
Any recommendations for where to buy interior doors? Our GC says we can’t reuse any of the doors we have. Thanks.

Thanks, Bob and Homeinspector. I think we have at most one old door that might work – we will look into it.

Be very careful buying doors. Many doors are now imported junk made not from wood but engineered products and masonite. The issues with these products is they have a narrow band of wood on the edges into which one sets relitively short scews. If these ever pull out, it is not a simple matter of putting a longer screw a little deeper into the wood. Often the doors are ruined though i have a way to fix them.
Look for doors from dykes and tell them you want a solid wood core, not engineered garbage. Solid wood can be a glued up stave door.
Rouge valley doors makes solid wood doors as does simpson. Jeld wen no longer makes staves doors; i called them about a year ago and asked them.
Tru stile has 3 grades of doors, cheap, bettrr, and better. The top door line them is stave construction.
You can run your existing doors by me with photos if you wish and i can comment. The gc may just not want to be bothered dealing with them. Photos here could work. If you wish to contact me directly, i might post a link to my new website.

But WHY can’t you use ANY of the old doors? I’ve had one of my original doors fitted into a new frame by a creative carpenter.

I’ve never bought from them, but these look good and they have a Brooklyn showroom.
