Hello, the doorways in my house are 800mm which seems mental when I see door sizes online, the closest I’ve seen is 838mm with maximum cut on each side at 16mm. I looked at made to measure doors but they’re over £300 a door, is there anyway around this without having to mess about with door frames etc as I’ve recently decorated. Thanks in advance.

Hi all, I have done some plastering recently its all turned out fairly well considering i'm new to it. However that's all been on fresh new plasterboard. I want to skim this kitchen wall. I have filled most of the big holes with bonding adhesive. My plan from here is to SBR the wall and then apply 2 coats of multi-finish. Would that be the correct way or should I undercoat first? I can't seem to add a picture but can send if possible. Thanks for any help :)
