Earley and Woodley are Reading suburbs, and a lot of the houses there are let.

If one of them is yours, bedroom doors are where the trouble starts. A kicked-in leaf. A hinge ripped from the frame. A closer unscrewed by a tenant who didn't like the noise.

Then the decorating. Seals get painted over and nobody mentions it.

Several houses, one trip

One house is a small job for a crew coming from Luton. Three houses on the same road make a day.

Getting in

The awkward part is access. Someone has to open each door. Pick a day when tenants are home, or leave us a key, and we will let them know what is happening the day before.

What goes on the door

Fire-tested hinges, a closer that suits the weight of the door, and seals that fit the groove. A cheap closer on a bedroom door gets removed within a month, so we don't fit those.

A door with panels in it is a different story. Panels void the rating, so we would put in a plain certified doorset.

Is the house licensed? The conditions of the licence say what each door needs, so read those first. Whether a bedroom door needs a closer is a question for your fire risk assessor.

From Luton

Earley is about an hour and a quarter away. Landlords with a handful of doors across a few houses suit us best.
