A slab door is the door panel by itself — no frame, no hinges. It's designed for situations where your existing door frame and hinges are in good condition and you just want to swap the door panel. Slab doors cost less than pre-hung because you're only buying the door.
When should I choose slab vs pre-hung?
Choose slab when your existing frame is straight, level, and in good shape. Choose pre-hung when you need a new frame too — like for new construction, renovations, or when the existing frame is damaged or warped. Slab saves money but requires more fitting work during installation.
Do slab doors come with hinges?
No. Slab doors are the panel only — you reuse your existing hinges or purchase new ones separately. You'll also need to mortise the hinges (cut recesses) into the door edge if your new slab door doesn't match the hinge placement of the old one.
