Flush doors and WPC doors: which goes where
A flush door is a flat door with a wooden core, usually block-board style strips inside a frame, faced with plywood on both sides. It is ready for laminate, veneer or paint. A WPC door is made of wood plastic composite, so it doesn't absorb water.
| Room | Door | Thickness |
|---|---|---|
| Main (entrance) door | Solid core flush door, BWP grade | 35mm or more |
| Bedroom, living room | Solid core flush door (MR; BWP if the wall is damp) | 30–32mm |
| Kitchen, balcony, utility | BWP flush door, or WPC | 30–32mm |
| Bathroom, toilet | WPC door | About 30mm |
| Store room, office cabin | Flush door | 30mm |
What to check on a flush door
- ISI mark and IS 2202 on the door, with a CM/L licence number you can verify in the BIS Care app.
- Solid core: ask, and feel the weight. A solid core door is noticeably heavier.
- Grade for the room: BWP where moisture reaches the door.
- Face: plain faces for laminate; good-quality veneer faces if you will polish.
- Straightness: stand the door up and sight along its edges.
Why WPC for bathrooms
Bathroom doors fail from the bottom edge: floors stay wet, water creeps into the edge, and a wooden door swells, sticks and eventually rots. WPC doesn't absorb water and isn't attacked by termites, so it lasts in the wettest room of the house. If you prefer a wooden door, choose BWP and seal all six faces, including the bottom edge. Read why doors swell in the monsoon.
Finishing a flush door
- Laminate: one sheet on each side, never one side only, or the door can bend. Add edge band or lipping.
- Veneer and polish: a natural wood look; take veneer sheets from the same lot for matching grain.
- Paint: the simplest finish for store rooms and utility doors.

Custom sizes
Many openings in older Delhi houses aren't standard. Bring the chaukhat measurements (width at the top, middle and bottom; height on both sides) and we'll tell you what fits. For the frame itself, see which chaukhat material to choose.

Frequently asked questions
Which door is best for a bathroom?
A WPC door. It is waterproof and termite-proof, while wooden flush doors can swell at the bottom in wet bathrooms.
What thickness should a flush door be?
30mm is common for internal doors; 32mm to 35mm solid-core doors feel sturdier and suit main and bedroom doors.
What are the standard flush door sizes?
Common sizes follow the chaukhat opening, such as 7 x 3 ft (84 x 36 inch), 7 x 2.5 ft (84 x 30 inch) and 6.5 x 2.5 ft (78 x 30 inch). Measure your opening inside the frame before buying.
Solid core or hollow core: which flush door is better?
Solid core. It is heavier, quieter, stiffer and holds hinges and locks better. For main and bedroom doors, choose solid core.
Is the ISI mark compulsory on flush doors?
Yes. Wooden flush door shutters come under the Plywood and Wooden Flush Door Shutters (Quality Control) Order, 2024 and must carry the ISI mark under IS 2202.
