What this service is, and who it is for
What the service covers
We supply and fit internal doors, or fit doors you have bought. That includes trimming the door to the opening, cutting in hinges and latches, fitting handles, and adjusting until the door closes cleanly with even gaps all round. Linings, architrave and trims are finished to match.
Who it is for
Homeowners replacing tired doors, finishing a renovation or extension, or dealing with a door that sticks, drags or will not latch.
When you need it
After new flooring has raised floor levels, during a renovation, or when doors are dated, damaged or no longer close properly.
Why a professional matters
Hanging a door looks simple but needs accurate trimming and hinge work. A few millimetres out and the door binds, swings on its own or leaves uneven gaps.
What it costs you to leave it
Doors that fight you
Sticking, dragging and rattling doors get worse over time and can damage floors and frames.
Wasted money
A good door hung badly looks cheap and may have to be replaced.
Common mistakes
Trimming too much off, fitting hinges unevenly, and forgetting to seal the cut edges.

Materials, methods and variations
Door styles
Panelled, flush, glazed, oak and painted doors each need slightly different handling. Solid doors are heavier and need stronger hinges; glazed doors need extra care when trimming.
Linings and architrave
If a lining is out of square, the door will never sit right. We check and correct linings first, then fit architrave with tight mitres.
Ironmongery
Hinges, latches, handles and locks are cut in neatly and fitted securely. If you have chosen your own handles, we fit those.
After new flooring
New carpet, laminate or engineered flooring often raises floor levels. Doors then need trimming at the bottom so they clear the new floor.
