These may need two to three days. This allows for structural calibration and final finishing. We work to high standards throughout.
Check for draughts. Look for light around the frame. Check if the lock is stiff. These are signs you need new front doors. If the wood shows rot, it is time to act.
If the glass is cold, the door has failed. A replacement is the best path for your security and thermal comfort.
New external wooden doors must meet Part L for heat. They must meet Part Q for security. They must meet Part O for sun heat. Our installations are certified to meet these rules.
