Common Door Faults

Door Doesn't Latch

When your door does not stay shut when you close it you could adjust or replace the latch, which is held in place by a pair of screws. All DIY shops will have latches and latch plates.

Door Doesn't Close

Sometimes you might find that your solid wood door might swell or warp. Make sure your door and frame is protected from moisture with varnish or weather resistant paint.

If the frame around the door seems fine but you still can't close the door, you may need to shave the door. Nearly all doors have a solid wood lip around the edge so you can shave a few millimetres off the edge.

Door Sticks

Determine where the door sticks by closing the door as far as possible and look at the left, top, right and bottom edge of the door. You will see where the door is either close or far apart from the door frame.

If one side of the door has a gap and the other side is tight then you could adjust the door. If the gap around the door is even apart from the sticking point then remove the door and use a block plane to trim the door.

Door Lock Test

If your door is not locking smoothly, you can do a quick test that takes a few seconds. From the outside of the door that is not locking smoothly, open the door.

Whilst slightly open, lift the door handle up to engage the multi-point locking mechanism on the side of the door.

Turn the key in the lock as if the door was closed to lock the door. If the lock bolt operates smoothly then the problem is not the lock.

The door locking fault is likely to arise from the door being misaligned. It is essential to correct this alignment problem that you employ our UPVC Door Repair services.

We know exactly how to realign the door. Attempting to resolve the problem yourself without the required knowledge and experience can quickly make the situation a lot worse.

Our team are always available and willing to help.
