Why won’t my uPVC French doors close properly?
Common reasons why a uPVC French door is playing up include:
- Doors dropping over time
- Expansion from heat or humidity
- Worn hinges or locks
Minor adjustments, like adjusting the hinges, may solve the problem in the short term.
But ongoing issues usually need an experienced repairer to take a look or possibly a replacement.
What is the piece between two French doors called?
The vertical strip between the two doors is called an astragal or mullion, depending on the design. It helps seal the gap, improve security and keep the doors aligned.
Replacing it with a new unit flush is doable. But you might be better off hiring an experienced repairer for the job.
Can French doors be repaired instead of replaced?
The good news is, yes, French doors can often be repaired instead of replaced.
Issues with alignment, hinges, locks or seals can often be repaired without replacing the entire door set – saving you time and money.
