Have two external doors to replace which are 2320mm height X 1020mm wide.

What type or options do I have for replacement?

So custom made wood is one option. Are there any others? E.g..composite? Steel? Any indicative costs?

I have a similar sized single sliding wooden stable door at the front of our house. Mate of a mate charge me £250 to build custom and included materials. (I painted it once built and installed.) (I suspect this maybe a 'little' cheap though.)

I think bespoke timber maybe your only option, I doubt composite/steel will go anywhere near that size. Aluminium would be an option but it will be a office/industrial look.
