Collection: Internal Laminate Doors

The range of internal laminate doors on sale at Leader Online

This is a completely new type of internal door that offers many distinct benefits. Our internal laminate doors are fully finished with a laminate veneer over an engineered core and ready to hang from the moment you receive them. They can be trimmed, just like any other door, and we’ve got loads of styles and colours available. Explore your options and find out why these doors are so popular by scrolling below.

Styles

• Panelled - These doors are made up of recessed or raised panels and solid, opaque materials. They have an eye-catching textured surface, with a different number of panels on certain doors depending on the style. They also provide superior privacy and sound insulation to glazed doors and are best suited to period properties and busy, high-traffic commercial environments.
• Glazed - The glass allows natural sunlight to flow throughout your interior and creates a seamless transition between different rooms. Our glazed internal laminate doors are best suited to dark hallways, corridors, stairwells, and various other open-plan spaces.
• Fire Doors - Our laminate fire doors are FD30-rated, meaning they can resist the spread of fire and smoke for at least 30 minutes. They contain an intumescent seal around the edges which expands when temperatures reach beyond 200°C and offer the same protection as a wooden door, with the added convenience of an easy-to-clean surface.

Materials and colours

• Oak - A timeless style, the oak effect laminate brings a rustic charm to interior settings.
• Grey - One of our most popular colours in the laminate range. Grey and laminate are a natural match, as grey laminate doors give off that ash wood effect which is synonymous with Scandinavian design.
• Black - Our black internal laminate doors are bold and sophisticated and they give your space a newfound sense of luxury.
• Ivory - These doors are bold and sleek in equal measure. There are hints of darkness, but on the whole, ivory is a vibrant colour that brightens up any interior.

These are some of the most common questions we get from our customers regarding internal laminate doors.

Are laminate internal doors a good choice?

Yes, laminate internal doors are an excellent choice if you want a door that’s durable, stylish, and low-maintenance.

Thanks to its non-porous surface, a laminate door doesn’t absorb stains, grease, or moisture in the same way other doors do. That’s why it’s a practical choice for spaces like kitchens and children’s playrooms. Plus, high-pressure laminate (or HPL) is strong and highly resistant to scratches and impacts from everyday use.

If it does get marked or stained, it’s extremely easy to clean and maintain. A wipe with a damp cloth and mild soap or surface wipes will remove most dirt marks, crayon marks, splashes, and fingerprints.

Our laminate doors are available in a wide variety of colours, finishes, and styles, as we covered above. All things considered, it’s easy to see why laminate doors are so popular. Their practicality and visual appeal make them one of the best all-round options for residential and commercial settings.

What is a laminated door made from?

Laminated doors are built around a solid core made from timber, particleboard, or composite materials.

A laminate veneer sits on top of this core and is designed to replicate the appearance of natural wood and contemporary colours. It's bonded securely to the core and is highly resistant to scratches, moisture, stains, and fading.

Is a laminate door better than a wood door?

The answer to this question is subjective and depends on what you look for in a door and your wider interior.

Due to its durable finish, a laminate door is generally easier to clean and maintain and more resistant to scratches and stains than, say, an oak or walnut door. So, it’s ideal in environments such as houses in multiple occupation (HMOs), offices, or busy homes. It’s also more affordable, relatively speaking, compared to most wooden doors.

However, if you’re looking beyond just affordability and practicality and want a door with a premium, authentic appearance, wooden doors are the better option. Hardwood options such as oak or walnut are especially popular due to their natural grain patterns and timeless elegance. You can achieve a similar look with a laminate door, but not like-for-like.

Do I need to paint or finish a laminate door?

No, you don’t need to do either of these things, as your laminate door already has a pre-finished, synthetic surface layer and is ready to hang.

This layer’s durable, hard-wearing finish means it doesn’t require painting, staining, varnishing, or oiling. It’s also highly resistant to fading, scratches, marks, temperature changes, and moisture, helping the door maintain its appearance for years to come.

For these reasons, laminate doors are the most convenient choice from both an installation and maintenance perspective.

How do I maintain a laminate door?

Maintaining a laminate door is relatively straightforward, and it doesn’t require frequent cleaning to stay looking its best.

You simply dust your door roughly once every two weeks or as and when you spot dust or dirt. Every three to six months, you should clean it with a wet microfibre cloth, warm water, and mild washing-up liquid. Doing this will prevent smudges, fingerprints, or other marks from building up on your door.

Once you’ve finished, dry the surface thoroughly with a lint-free cloth to prevent the appearance of streaks. Avoid using abrasive sponges or applying harsh chemicals, as these could spoil your door’s finish over time.

Check the hinges every six months to see if any of their screws have come loose. Tighten any loose screws at the earliest opportunity; otherwise, your door could start sagging. You should also check the handles and latches to ensure your laminate door is still operating smoothly.

Can laminate doors be cut to size?

Yes, most laminate doors can be trimmed to fit a wide range of door frames and openings, meaning you don’t exceed the maximum allowances to avoid damaging your new door.

Your trim allowance will vary based on the specific door and manufacturer, so check the product specifications before making any adjustments.
