Hi.

We had a new UPVC front door fitted around 6 weeks ago.
Recently i've noticed it sticks slightly when closing. Its more apparent when its warmer. (The sun shines on the door all day)
Do UPVC expand a little when they are warm? or could it have settled?

Do you think it will be just a case of getting the fitter back to make some adjustments?

Many thanks

Yes they do expand a little, woodgrain even more but like you say just get your fitter back to re-adjust, its quite common for newly fitted doors to drop a little while settling, the fitter may re toe and heel it or make his adjustment using the adjustable hinges, its not a serious problem
