If they are hollow remember to look on top for which side the lock block is on, otherwise you'll have nothing to fix your handles to.

Where are you looking? Most builders merchants only carry a basic selection of mouldings, is there a specialist timber merchants nearby?

What's the profile like? If it's not too complex any joiners shop should be able to machine some up. Even if it's not a common mould you can make a cutter to match fairly easily.

A vent. Wouldn't that look odd?
I wanted normal doors so it matched the door on the right.

Looks good. I like jobs where you can turn round and say "Good work" to yourself.

Good effort
