When a door looks as good as the one above it not only makes your home into a warm retreat from the worries of the world it will both draw admiring glances from friends and neighbours and it mat just add a little more value to your home.
So, you have decided that you want a new Composite Front Door – where do you begin – one of our most frequently asked questions is a good starting point,
How do I measure for a Composite Door?
The answer if you are an expert DIY professional and intend to install the door yourself is – take a look at your existing brickwork opening and then take the following measurements
Width: Measure in 3 points; top, middle and bottom and take the smallest measurement and deduct 10mm.
Height: Measure again in 3 points; left, centre and right and take the smallest measurement and deduct 10mm.
Diagonals: Ensure the opening is square by measuring the diagonals as shown in yellow.
If followed correctly this will allow your new door frame to fit your existing opening with a tolerance that will allow some manoeuvrability and still be tight enough to the brickwork for a solid fix
