Habitually I've only ever put doors on racks containing MDF or IDF
distribution frames. If other racks come with doors I have a habit
of taking them off.

That should be easy enough to buy, Techpac, et al. will sell you
one (I think we can sell you one). Quick tip from the last one I
used, make sure it's switched onto 240V and not 230V, we thought it
was defective because it kept saying overload, switching to
batteries and shutting the servers down.
