Sheeting for a door beside house

[aidank]

Having figured out how to fabricate a door track which will allow a door to slide around a corner I now have to turn my mind how to sheet said door.

Door will be 2 of 8x2ft or thereabouts

I'm looking for something that looks like white timber but comes in a sheet and ideally look like a white PVC door.

Any ideas ?

Maybe stick / staple "planks" to a sheet of lorry siding.

Minor pedantry but timber doesn't usually look like PVC and vice versa...

Or do you mean you're wanting the PVC to have a wood grain effect embossed into it?

Are the doors exposed to all weathers?

It might. I want to install it vertically rather than horizontally.
.
Is it waterproof when installed vertically or can water get in between the joints

I installed some vertically on a gate so waterproof wasn't a concern. The joint was pretty tight so a small bead of silicone would have made them completely watertight.
