Door Installation & Repair in Kangkar

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.

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.

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.

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.

In many countries, yes in specific spots — typically between an attached garage and the house, and in multi-storey or rental configurations. Fire doors must be fitted with the right frame, seals, closers and gaps to actually work, so use an installer who knows the local requirement rather than treating it as just another door.

If your flat opens onto a fire-escape route (most corridor-facing units), yes — the main door must be an approved fire-rated set. Suppliers know the requirement; make sure any digital lock installation preserves the door's certification.
