JED Double Glazing Repairs
DOOR REPAIRS IN CHESTER-LE-STREET
JED specialise in repairing PVCu and aluminium doors, fitting new locks, hinges and hardware throughout Chester-le-Street.
Most problems with PVCu doors revolve around poor original installation of the door which results in the door sash dropping in the frame causing the door to drag over the frame at the bottom. This in turn makes the lock difficult to operate and extra force required to close. This extra force results in a strained door locking mechanism often stripping the gears in the lock and preventing the door from opening. Early diagnosis of the problem can stop this happening, the door can be adjusted and relocated in the frame allowing the locks to engage correctly. Damaged or worn locking mechanisms can be replaced and we stock most of the popular makes.
COMPOSITE DOOR REPAIRS IN CHESTER-LE-STREET.
Composite doors are the latest development in replacement doors and work on a different principle having a solid door leaf or slab, available in a range of colours and designs fitting into the door frame rebate providing a smooth appearance as opposed to fitting over the edge of the frame in a PVCu panel door. The doors are of a cellular construction and are extremely strong and virtually unbreakable, The doors rely on a woolpile draught seal and usually are locked with a double hook lock mechanism with six lever dead lock.
DOOR PANEL REPAIRS IN CHESTER-LE-STREET
Feature door panels are mainly confined to PVCu doors but some do occur in aluminium doors. Those in PVCu doors vary in thickness and density. There are many designs but the important features are in the construction. In the early days of door panel production little was known of the colour fading effects of sunlight. Soon lots of door panels changed colour giving a two tone appearance to the door because the higher grade PVCu used in the door frame remained white. Also the doors were constructed using polystyrene foam as a filler between the outer decorative skins. This resulted in flimsy doors with "kick out" door panels. All of our door panels are fully reinforced with high grade MDF together with polystyrene for insulation and are guaranteed against colour fade. By replacing the panel the whole image of the door can be changed as well as increasing security. Please telephone for a quotation.
HINGE REPAIR IN CHESTER-LE-STREET
Older PVCu doors are fitted with "pencil" hinges, tubular in shape and non adjustable. These can be replaced if broken, and replacements also usually provide some adjustment of the door. Newer doors are fitted with three way "pad" hinges. These hinges are fitted to the face of the door and provide adjustment in three directions similar to kitchen cupboard hinges. These hinges are generally stronger but casting failure can result in breakage. Replacements are readily available.
ALUMINIUM DOOR REPAIR IN CHESTER-LE-STREET
Aluminium doors usually rely on a mortice type lock and possibly shoot bolts at the top and bottom. As these doors are becoming rare the components to repair are becoming more scarce. Each door must be appraised for availability of parts.
