One of the most fascinating aspects of uPVC doors is that even if you require a specific design, shape or layout for your home, most manufactures have the resources and capabilities to produce a bespoke design to suit your requirements.

Whether you desire upvc doors to fit archways or any particular shape the possibilities are endless. Constructed using the latest techniques and equipment, you can expect the entire process when ordering your doors to having them fitted to take on average a week to a fortnight.

When having your replacement upvc doors fitted by a reputable source, you will undoubtedly notice the use of specialist screws being used to attach the casing or door frame to the existing opening. Many cheaper companies have been known to only use expanding foam to secure doorframes which is unacceptable. We advise that you check for this.

Once installed the door itself can be hung, usually in two parts. First is the outer frame that is squared first to ensure a tight and snug fit. Once in place, the door centre, complete with letterbox and other fittings as ordered by you the customer, is fitted and then sealed in with removable strips that complete the doors internal profile.

Once completed, final adjustments can be made, locks are checked and items such as door knocker, spy hole and adhesive backed door numbers are then attached to give you a wonderful finished effect.
