We are building a new house and have come to the choice of an entrance door. We want to immediately select a door that will exactly meet the standards, so as not to suffer with alterations later. What sizes are considered standard in Canada, and are there any nuances that are worth knowing about?
Hi. Standard door sizes in Canada are most often 32, 34 and 36 inches wide, and usually 80 inches high. But there are nuances! For example, if you need a double door or with side panels, then the sizes may differ. We took information about exterior door sizes from https://www.elegantentrydoors.ca/standard-exterior-door-sizes-for-canadian-homes/, and it really helped to understand.
It is important to think about this in advance! At first we did not think about the dimensions at all, and then we had to redo the opening for the new door - extra expenses and a headache.
