Door Installation & Repair in Sipitang

The door-set spec (material, glazing, security rating), removal and disposal of the old door, fitting and sealing, threshold work, all hardware including the lock cylinder, and making good of trims both sides. Cheap quotes commonly exclude hardware and making-good — ask.

A slab is just the door leaf — cheapest, but the installer must cut hinges and the lock to match your existing frame. A prehung/door-set arrives already hinged in its frame — dearer, but the fit and seal are better, and it's the sensible choice when the old frame is worn or out of square.

Yes, if the frame is sound, square and the right size — that's a slab replacement and it's the cheapest path. If the frame is rotten, racked, or you want better security and sealing, replacing the whole door-set costs more but fixes the real problem.

Houses move and hinges wear: the classic faults are a sagging hinge, a swollen door in humid seasons, or a latch misaligned with its strike plate. All are quick fixes for a carpenter. A door that suddenly sticks along with wall cracks can signal settlement worth a builder's look.

A solid-core or engineered door, a quality deadlock or multipoint lock, reinforced strike plates with long screws into the stud, and hinge-side protection. Ask for locks meeting your country's recognized security standard — insurers often specify them and it's the cheapest discount you'll ever earn.

Interior doors run RM 400-1,000 supplied and fitted; solid main doors RM 1,500-4,000. Digital lock packages add RM 800-2,500 depending on brand.
