New door leaf in an old frame
The interior door is a complement to the interior that should suit the style chosen for other parts of the house. It is easy to see your old doors with “new eyes” after repainting or changing the wallpaper in a room. But once the brushes have dried and the wallpaper finally hangs straight, it doesn’t feel right to start pulling off the door lining. We have a solution for that! With replaceable door leaves, you keep your existing frame. You simply hook the new door leaf onto the frame without having to pull out a single nail. Easy peasy!
Here in Sweden, the dimensions of doors and frames became standardized in 1972.
If your door was built after 1972 and has snap-in hinges, we can build a replaceable door leaf for your existing frame.
REPLACING THE INTERIOR DOOR IS EASY!
All you need to do is lift the locking tongue of the interior door hinge with a screwdriver. Then you lift off the old door, hook on the new one and snap it on. Done! But the very first thing you need to do is measure your existing interior doors and email us the measurements at offert@bovalls.com and we will get back to you with a quote.
NOTE! All doors must be measured and we can only build interchangeable door leaves for doors built after 1972 with snap-in hinges.

Hanging new interior door on old frame
This seems to be the biggest keyword for “new interior door in old frame”, “replace interior door yourself”, “replace interior door without changing frame” and so on.
Whatever you call it, we would like to emphasize the advantages of being able to change the interior door without changing the frame.
You can save a lot of work and materials by not changing the frame:
If you are building a new house or completely renovating a house, it is one thing to buy interior doors with frames. The surface layers must be built or replaced anyway. With a light renovation where you do not want to tear down or change the lining for the inner door and surface layer, it is good to be able to change only the door leaf. Om t.ex. the inner door is inside a bathroom, so it can involve a lot of work and material. Tearing out the frame is likely to damage the tile on the inside of the bathroom. The toilet door next to the kitchen and hall is usually the interior door that our customers choose to replace first when renovating.
WOOD, HOPE AND LOVE IN EVERYTHING WE DO.
Our interior doors with snap-in hinges are built with respect for the raw material. The wood's structure contains unique imprints from nature and each piece of wood, frame, casement and stiles are like small pieces of art.
