These doors are usually made with vertical planks being held together by three horizontal planks placed at the top, middle and bottom part of the door. Usually, these doors are used for toilets, baths and also for those who wants to save a few quid.

Flush doors

These are smooth and normally seen indoors. It can be made out of wood, steel or fiber board and usually hinged at one side so it can only open in single direction only. This is also perfect for those who want to save money while having a pleasing door at home.
