Mobile Where to buy internal doors

We saw some doors we loved at a shop in London but the price was a bit too much for us so I’ve been shopping around on the Internet looking for the exact same doors & have found many of same materials etc but at half the price so now my dilemma is who to trust to get them here in a timely manner, arrive Undamaged & trust that they are indeed as described.
We are buying 11 doors in total & need them delivered pretty quick (2 weeks) & I’ve had a nightmare getting bathroom stuff delivered & problems with our new window delivery that I’d really appreciate reccomendations for companies who can be trusted.
Many thanks

Sad to say I trust no company for the first order. Then if they come up trumps that’s great and I use them again.
I rely on Trustpilot for reviews.

Edit. Damage is the main issue. Our neighbour paid £450 per door for his house. Maybe 70% had to go back as damaged in transit. Stunning doors mind.

Have you tried Howdens? Some nice gear there. Really good ironmongery as well. My Daughter got excellent chrome handles from them.

They don’t have the doors we want.
I’ve looked on trust pilot as per your advice and found a company I’d be happy to risk ordering from at £1800 cheaper for the exact same doors so I’ve emailed the original company to ask if they can match it as we really liked the people & they have good reviews.

Need to speak to my joiner to see if I need to order hinges etc too as not sure what his quote includes but I do have to pick door handles & opening type for pockets so I’ll take a look at howdens for those - thanks.

Wow that’s a lot of damage! Ours are £320 (9 doors) & £495 (2 doors) per door including VAT & free delivery from original company but £172 & £264 including VAT with £65 delivery from the on line company. So hope whoever we go with packs them well so they’re not damaged!

We replaced all our internal doors with oak doors from Travis Perkins. Good quality,

All were okay, none damaged in transit.

Like Tom, I can recommend Howdens. We had eight new doors three years ago for the bargain price of £7 each plus ironmongery.
