Expert Repairs for Every Door Fault, Ensuring Quality and Durability
Over the years, doors can develop problems if not maintained correctly, most front doors are used around a thousand times a year, with this in mind, it’s essential to carry out routine maintenance which we can advise.
When make adjustments to your doors, we will check every aspect to ensure correct ongoing function.
We can source & supply almost any lock for your door whether you have U-pvc, Bi-Fold, Composite or Patio doors, in most cases we can forward big cost savings by changing the malfunctioning part instead of the whole lock.
Modern door hinges are very robust but time and sometimes abuse can cause them to malfunction. A common cause is the wind catching the door making it swing back and crushing the hinge, this can make the door difficult to open and close.
Most hinges are readily available, the few that are obsolete can be replaced with something similar to get the door working again.
Door handles can take a lot of abuse over the years, especially if the door is difficult to lock.
There are no standard sizes as each type of handle is designed to work with the particular mutli lock you have on your door, all sizes and brands are still available in most colour choices, white, gold, black or chrome.

Over time, doors can fall out of alignment, in some cases they haven’t been set up properly in the first place, this causes locking issues and quite frequently draughts.
We see this type of thing all the time and can get even the most difficult doors operating and draught free.
Patio doors are very durable and functional doors that don’t limit living spaces.
The tracks are stainless steel or solid aluminium which if cleaned regularly will last the life of the doors.
The common fault on Patio doors are the wheels seizing, this can be inactivity through the wettest months, while it is a difficult process, new wheels can be fitted to get the doors working again.
Bi-Fold doors have become very popular due to their practicality and the many opening configurations available.
A very common problem we see now is that general builders are installing these doors while extending peoples living spaces, unfortunately, the basic window fitting principles are overlooked causing ongoing problems for the customer.
Composite doors are a very popular addition to homes, unfortunately, as they are quite heavy they do need to be maintained fairly regularly, due to their weight, they cause some stress on the hinges, you would notice this if your door bumps slightly while closing rather than clicking nicely into place, in most cases this is just routine adjustment.
