Service overview
A sound leaf that only rubs or latches poorly may suit adjustment or hardware repair instead. Replacement is considered for an unsuitable or damaged leaf after checking that the existing opening can accept the proposed door.
internal door replacement can be appropriate when the door sags, rubs, sticks or has uneven gaps around the opening. Check the supplied leaf against the opening, hinge positions and product trimming allowance before removing the old door.
Signs: the latch, handle, hinge or ordinary running hardware no longer lines up or operates normally or the door closes poorly despite an otherwise sound visible opening. Causes: local damage to an accessible component rather than an assumed structural defect or normal wear in hinges, latches or compatible mechanical hardware.
Check the swing across the actual floor, including rugs and any planned flooring change. The aim is a workable clearance with an aligned leaf. Removing excessive material to compensate for an unsuitable opening is not a substitute for checking compatibility first.
A hollow-core or factory-finished leaf may allow only limited edge trimming. Share the exact product specification before purchase. A door that needs more material removed than its instructions permit should be exchanged for a suitable product rather than improvised to fit.
Common situations
Show which side carries the hinges and how the door swings into the room. Nearby furniture, another door or a light switch can affect practical use. Replacing the leaf does not automatically include reversing the opening direction or moving the stop.
Clear the swing and provide somewhere safe for the removed door. Agree whether disposal is required before the visit. If the existing frame is damaged or movement is apparent, the replacement plan needs review rather than using a new leaf to conceal the problem.
A replacement leaf may arrive unfinished, primed or factory coated. Cutting and fitting can leave edges needing the product-specified protection. Agree who supplies the finish and whether painting is included; hanging a door alone should not be mistaken for a complete decoration package.
