What should you check before you decide?
How is the frontage measured?
We measure the structural opening, not the old frame. Lintel condition, floor level and how square the opening is all get recorded at survey.
How do you deal with the threshold?
We aim for level or near-level access. New doors need thought about wheelchair and pushchair users, and we check the floor before we promise anything.
Which glass should go in?
Safety glass is needed in doors, side panels and low-level panes. Laminated glass is worth the extra if the street has a history of break-ins.
Will this need planning permission in Weymouth?
It depends on how much changes. A new layout, new materials or a moved door usually needs permission from Dorset Council. Illuminated signs can need advertisement consent, depending on size, position and area. Listed buildings need listed building consent as well.
