Door card dimensions for laser cut

I am looking at making some new door cards and was thinking about getting them laser cut for a nice finish. Does anyone have the dimensions of the door card? I assume the pre cut ones you can buy are laser cut or stamped out so I'm sure they would exist somewhere.

dont think you would be smart cutting from dimensions as they are not square so to speak , ,just buy a pair or borrow and have cut but cost prob the same either way
mm

How does your time and effort and some cost compare against buying them for ~£30. Just a thought?

I live in Australia so they are a bit harder to buy. I've also got free access to a laser cutter and possibly material.
But I guess I'll have to do it the old fashioned way!
