    Pretty heavy. Each door is 2555mm high x 730mm wide x 55mm thick and can be carried by one person, but they aren't light.

    Are they internal doors mate? Maybe some sort of mahogany? Pretty popular as premo timbers in ye olden times, now it ungodly expensive.

    Other guess could be Jarrah or Karri from the color. Heavier than Oregon and tighter grain. .

    Yeh they are internal doors that my grandfather salvaged from a state savings bank in country Victoria during a renovation in the early 1970's.
