External Door Fitters in Wokingham

We fit external doors for homeowners and landlords across Wokingham. If your current door is draughty, hard to close or you are simply upgrading before putting the property on the market, we assess what is there, advise honestly and fit the right door for the opening.

External Doors We Fit in Wokingham

Wokingham has a high proportion of owner-occupied family homes where people are upgrading rather than just replacing. We fit composite front doors, solid timber doors, glazed back doors, French doors and stable doors. A lot of customers here are particular about how the door looks as well as how it performs, and we work with that. We will tell you what sizes are available for your opening and what will suit the property before anything is ordered.

Front Doors

Strong, secure and the first thing anyone sees. We fit front doors on all property types, from straightforward replacements to non-standard openings where the frame needs attention first.

Timber Front Doors

A natural choice for period properties and homes where composite does not suit the look. We fit solid timber front doors and advise on sizes whether stock or made to measure.

Composite / uPVC Doors

Low maintenance, weather resistant and available in a wide range of styles. The most common choice for front door replacements across the areas we cover.

French Doors

Two-door sets that open outward and work well at the back of a property where you want more light and access to the garden. We fit and align both leaves so they close and lock cleanly.

Patio Doors

liding or hinged rear doors that open up a room without needing swing space. We check the frame and threshold carefully on these as the weight and movement puts more demand on the fitting.

Other External Doors

Not seeing your door type here? We fit stable doors, side access doors, bi-fold doors and more. If you are not sure what you need, tell us what you have and we will advise.

How We Handle External Door Fitting in Wokingham

Wokingham properties tend to be well maintained but that does not mean the frame is always ready for a new door. We check the rebate, the sill condition and whether the opening is square before measuring. Where everything is sound we get on with the fit. The door is hung with even gaps on all sides, the weatherstrip is set for full contact, the threshold is sealed and the lock is tested. We work through it methodically because that is what stops problems appearing six months down the line.

Trusted External Door Fitters in Wokingham

Wokingham attracts a lot of landlords with rental properties across the town, and we do a fair amount of work between tenancies where a door needs replacing quickly but still needs doing correctly. The temptation on that kind of job is to move fast and skip the checks. We do not do that. A door fitted into a frame that has not been properly assessed will cause problems for the next tenant and a callback for the landlord. We check the frame regardless of how urgent the job is. For homeowners, the calls we get in Wokingham are often from people who have had a quote elsewhere that felt vague or included extras that were not explained upfront. We price the job based on what we actually find and the number we give you before starting is the number on the invoice.

Frequently asked questions

Frequently asked questions

Getting Started

I am a landlord with a rental property in Wokingham. Can you turn jobs around quickly between tenancies?
Yes. We work with landlords regularly and understand that void periods cost money. We will tell you realistically how quickly we can get to the job and what is involved. If the frame needs attention before the door goes in, we tell you that upfront so you can factor it into your timeline.
My current back door lets in cold air along the bottom even when it is shut. Is that the door or the threshold?
Most likely the threshold seal has failed or the door has dropped enough to break contact with it. Sometimes it is both. We check the hang of the door and the threshold condition when we visit. On older back doors the bottom rail can also have taken on moisture and warped slightly, which stops it sitting flush. We tell you what we find before recommending a fix.
Does replacing a front door in Wokingham need any approval?
Not for most properties. Standard replacements are permitted development. If your property is in one of Wokingham's conservation areas, Wokingham Borough Council can confirm whether any restrictions apply to your address.
I want a composite door but I am not sure my opening is the right size for a standard one. What happens then?
We measure the opening accurately before anything is ordered. If your opening falls outside standard sizes, made-to-measure is the route and we will tell you what that means for cost and lead time. It is better to know that before the door is ordered than after it arrives.
What security standard should I be looking for on a new front door?
Look for a door with a multipoint locking system and a cylinder lock that meets TS007 or equivalent standards. The multipoint system secures the door at several points along the edge when the handle is lifted. The cylinder quality matters too because a cheap cylinder can be snapped. We fit locks that meet insurer requirements and explain what has gone in before we finish the job.
How is the final price worked out?
We base it on the door, the frame condition and any additional work needed on the threshold or surrounding structure. Landlord jobs and homeowner jobs are priced the same way. You get a fixed number before we start and that is what you pay.
