door

Anyone know if I have to abide by any regulations for the type of door to be used on a boiler cupboard? Want to replace this ugly door with a spare Victorian pine door we have but not sure if that's actually allowed.

Does anyone know of a lock like the one linked below, except that has both sides of the lock connected together for use in a office with a glass to glass sliding door? One side being a key and the other side being a thumb turn...

I have moved in to my gf's house and her front door needs adjusting. The top is catching on the external frame. At first I thought the hinges had covers on but these don't seem to want to come off. I was hoping someone on here knows how to adjust the door There looks like an alan key hole...

Hi all need to buy a door to replace an old crumbling garage side door, where is the best place to get one from please?

I have a conservatory with French doors but the slave door cannot be opened because the Concealed Operating Lever to open the slave door is broken / missing. I have tried locksmiths and windows repairers but they do not know what the part is in order to replace it. The conservatory was...

I have read on various websites that FENSA does not cover doors with less than 50% glazing. But I cannot find anything on FENSA's website that states this. All the text I can find on FENSA's site just refers to doors, with no mention of 50%. I have no doubt that you know the answer, but could...

Our PVCu front door (installed 18 months ago) is not sealing and appears bowed. We informed the installer and he came round, accepted it was not sealed and made some adjustments. When he had completed the adjustments we could see that it was still not sealed. We tried to show it was not sealed...

I have read on this forum about using a piece of paper to check if a door is sealed, and it is quite clear that my front door is not sealing properly. (The draft on windy days also made it clear!) In fact it looks like the door is slightly bowed. The composite door was put in about 18 months ago...

Would the fire resistance of the new door need to be in line with current requirements? Existing doors are all stained and waxed 6 panel pine, so it would look a bit odd to have a modern fire door there. Thank y'all kindly. Dain

Hi, Has anyone had the misfortune to try the above? I've sought further clarification from Beko, who sent a slightly less useless anotated sheet and now refuse to provide any further guidance. The door is not easily seperated but they must know how to do it and exactly whats needed ? Any...

Would it be it a good idea to have two doors this close together opening in opposite directions? I'm just about to lay click vinyl in this upstairs galley kitchen and I'll have to trim the bottom of the nearest door unless I take it off and have it open outwards. Is there a rule of thumb on...

Hi everyone, Can someone please help me? I'm tearing my hair out trying to figure out why our home is so cold. I managed to get a Flir One (Gen2) Thermal Camera pretty decent price. I'm not sure if I'm using it properly. I've taken some photos of the outside of the house and some of the...

Hi, I’ve changed normal Euro cylinders in the past without a hitch. We’ve a just moved into a new home and I’d like to change the locks out of good practice, however, these locks seem to be different to what I’m used to. Im guessing they’re just normal Euro cylinders but that I’m missing...

Yet another post on uPVC doors I know... There are three roller cans on my back door — bottom, middle and top. The top and middle pull the door into the frame tightly and there is a good seal. Unfortunately there is a gap at the bottom and I can quite easily push or pull (from outside) the...

These two doors in a newly built house have been placed poorly, in that each door will hit the other at some point. What you see in the picture is a couple of door stops recently put down but not screwed down thankfully but neither of them help with stopping them hitting each other. Does anyone...

One of the buildings that I look after dates from the 1870s. We have a presumably orginal door that is of 'slatted' construction with boards that are butted up to one another. There is some separation of these boards now and I'm unsure what would be the best product to fill them with. It...

I have a rubber seal on my exterior door sill. The groove in which it was originally seated had rotted at one end which I have now filled with a two pack filler (ronseal high perfomance filler). Since I had to re-mould the groove the rubber seal will no longer remain seated firmly inside the...

Hi, I'm missing the key for a mortice lock on a Victorian door which has a knob with rose etc. I removed the lock, it's very large and thick steel with some brass parts, could be original. I think the case is welded, any way to replace part of the inside to allow a replacement key to work...

wooden door, approx. 14 years old. The door won't fasten to the hinges. I've tried putting polyfilla to fill the holes where the screws go (but seems a bit of a bottomless pit) and I've tried packing the screw holes with cocktail sticks , to get a bit more purchase for the screws. It's worked...
