Liberty Doors internal Oak fully finished Monet door (Code: LS-51756)
When buying a new door, the number one question we get asked is “Do you sell fully finished doors?”, and the answer is yes. Nobody wants hassle when it comes to decorating, that’s why the Monet fully finished door simply had to be included on this list. Not only does the gorgeous 5 panel horizontal panel design scream ‘pick me!’, but thanks to the door being fully finished, they really are the number one DIY choice for internal doors.
The luxurious finish means that the Monet is pretty much ready to hang, straight out of the box. With very minimal work involved, you can order with a peace of mind, and you might even save a few bob on fitting costs. This is a new take on an already popular design, which is sure to be a hit this year. Also available as an FD30 fire door, making the door suitable for most applications.

We know what you’re thinking, we thought it too at first! But wow, that’s what you call a striking design. The cause of a few discussions at Leader Doors HQ, this door certainly was like Marmite.
