6 panel Primed White Woodgrain effect LH & RH Internal Door, (H)1981mm (W)762mm (T)35mm

Awful doors to work with, the mdf is so soft and a pain to to chop the hinges and latch in ECT, don't know why they've changed them can't see it lasting long before the screws give way

Bought plenty of these doors, suddenly the frame is now MDF
Can't paint it as it soaks it up, can't chisel it as it tears like paper, and think the milk in the fridge will out last the screws hold

Please, I urge you do not buy these things.
They would better be described as life-sized cardboard toy doors
I'm a competent, self taught carpenter and I could not fit one of these satisfactorily.
The MDF surround is of such poor quality as to turn into cardboard mush when you try to chisel rebates for the hinges. Subsequently, hanging and removing for trimming means the rebate just turns to custard and looks horrible.
Trimming the doors creates clouds of horrible toxic MDF dust that gets everywhere.
Please, do yourself a favour and pass on this door, and all the others in the range that are made with MDF surrounds - they are merely door shaped objects that are not fit for purpose.

I have hung hundreds of doors, and these hollow doors have ALWAYS had a pine/whitewood outer edge/frame. They are now seemingly made with an MDF edge. I hung one recently, all went well, I found it easy enough to chisel out the rebates for hinges and latch etc, but I just can't get my head around an MDF outer edge being suitable for this application. Are the hinge screws going into the end grain part of the MDF..? if so they are not going to hold. As the title said... Unsure.

Having purchased many of these doors in the past with no problems, the manufacturing process has now changed. There is now mdf around the edges of the door instead of wood. This will not chisel out for hinges, will not take paint as it just soaks it up.
