A universal door skin blank comprises an exterior side and an interior side for securing to a frame member, first and second molded, spaced stiles, and a flat planar portion disposed between the stiles and lying on a plane spaced from the plane of the stiles. An interface portion is disposed between and contiguous with the stiles and the flat planar portion. The invention also relates to a door having at least one universal door skin blank, with at least two separately formed rails secured to the planar portion of the blank at opposite ends thereof.

1. A method of producing a universal door skin blank, comprising the steps of: providing a die set having an upper die spaced from a lower die, the dies creating a forming chamber defining first and second spaced stiles lying on a first plane, and a flat planar portion lying on a second plane spaced
1. A method of producing a universal door skin blank, comprising the steps of: providing a die set having an upper die spaced from a lower die, the dies creating a forming chamber defining first and second spaced stiles lying on a first plane, and a flat planar portion lying on a second plane spaced from the first plane, the flat planar portion being integral with, disposed between, and having a length equal to the length of said stiles;disposing a flat substrate between the upper and lower dies, wherein the flat substrate comprises an exterior side and an interior side;providing a decorative layer on the exterior side of the flat substrate; andcompressing the flat substrate and the decorative layer using heat and pressure to form a blank having first and second molded, spaced stiles, a flat planar portion disposed between the stiles, said flat planar portion lying on a single plane spaced from the plane of the stiles, and an interface portion disposed between and contiguous with the stiles and the flat planar portion and extending an entire length of said blank, said planar portion having a length equal to the length of the stiles and extending uninterruptedly between the stiles, wherein the decorative layer is bonded to the flat substrate during compression. 2. The method of claim 1, including the step of selecting a substrate having a length less than the length of the die set. 3. The method of claim 1, including the step of cutting the compressed blank to a selected length, wherein the selected length is less than the length of the die set. 4. The method of claim 1, including the step of providing at least one die having a textured surface for producing a pattern on the blank. 5. The method of claim 1, wherein the decorative layer comprises at least one of a veneer, foil and a paper overlay. 6. The method of claim 1, including the step of selecting the substrate from the group consisting of particleboard, hard board, and medium density fiberboard. 7. A method of producing a door, comprising the steps of: providing a peripheral door frame having oppositely disposed sides;providing first and second flat wood composite blanks having an exterior side and an interior side;forming each the flat wood composite blanks to have molded spaced stiles lying on a first plane,a flat planar portion extending between and having a length equal to the length of the stiles for each of the flat wood composite blanks, the flat planar portion lying on a second plane spaced from said first plane, the flat planar portion extending the length of and uninterruptedly between the stiles to provide a single surface in a single plane, andan interface portion disposed between and contiguous with the stiles and the flat planar portion, said interface portion extending an entire length of said blank, wherein said spaced stiles, said flat planar portion, and said interface portion are forming simultaneously in a press;bonding a decorative layer to the exterior side of the flat wood composite blank simultaneously with forming said spaced stiles, said flat planar portion, and said interface portion;securing the interior sides of each of the flat wood composite blanks to one of the opposite sides of said door frame after said step of forming so that the door frame is sandwiched between the first and second flat wood composite blanks;forming at least two rails, each one of the rails having an exterior surface and an interior surface; andsecuring the interior surface of the rails onto the flat planar portion at any desired position along the length thereof, whereby said interior surface is in continuous contact with said flat planar portion at said any desired position. 8. The method of claim 7, including the step of securing the rails to opposite ends of the flat planar portion. 9. The method of claim 7, wherein the decorative layer comprises at least one of a veneer, foil and a paper overlay. 10. The method of claim 7, including the step of securing one of a veneer, foil and paper overlay to the exterior surface of the rails. 11. The method of claim 7, including the step of selecting the wood composite blank from the group consisting of particleboard, hard board, and medium density fiberboard. 12. The method of claim 7, comprising the further steps of: defining at least one panel by securing the rails onto the flat planar portion;adhesively securing the interior surface of the rails to the decorative layer associated with the flat planar portion of the flat wood composite blank. 13. The method of claim 12, further comprising the step of securing an additional decorative layer to the exterior surface of the panel. 14. The method of claim 12, including the step of post-forming the panel. 15. The method of claim 7, including the step of securing trim to said interface portions. 16. The method of claim 7, wherein the rails have both a first end and a second end angled to compliment the interface portions. 17. The method of claim 7, including the step of trimming at least one of the wood composite blanks prior to securing it to the frame. 18. The method of claim 7, including the step of placing a filler between the first and second wood composite blanks when they are attached to the frame. 19. The method of claim 7, including the step of securing at least one panel to the flat planar portion.
