Struggling to latch my back door and on inspection there is a distinct bow. When closed, the top and bottom are tight against the seals but at the door handle there is a clear gap of maybe 5 mm. I hadn't appreciated that uPVC could warp.
Is there away of straigtening the door?
thank
 
Unfortunately no realistic solution other then replacement.
Just for the record , and I know it's too late but the manufacturers of pvc and Composite recommend you always ' pull the handle ' up to engage all locking points every time you use the door, this reducing the chance of bowing as the locking points keep the door as rigid as possible
