What to check before ordering in Leicestershire
Glazed area limits
Each door design allows a maximum glazed area and aperture positions. Bigger glass needs a door tested for it.
Doorset, not just a door
The safest route is a complete doorset with frame and hardware tested together. Mixing a leaf from one source with a frame from another needs evidence that covers the combination.
Closers and gaps
Self-closing devices and correct gaps are part of the performance. We set them at installation and record them.
