Door hanging
New internal and external doors hung true — latching cleanly, swinging quietly, looking right.
About this job
A well-hung door closes with a fingertip and stays where you leave it. We scribe the door to your frame (old frames are rarely square), recess hinges cleanly, fit handles and latches at the right height, and trim the bottom to clear carpets. Fire doors to flats and HMOs are hung with the correct intumescent strips and closers — a legal requirement we take seriously.

- ✔Door scribed and trimmed to fit the frame
