Door Installation FAQs
Can I install a new door in an existing frame?
Often yes, if the frame is in good condition and the new door is the same size. The carpenter
may need to adjust hinges or trim the door slightly for a proper fit. If the frame is damaged
or warped, replacing both door and frame gives better results.
Why is my door sticking or hard to close?
Doors can stick due to humidity causing timber to swell, hinges loosening over time, the house
settling and shifting the frame, or paint buildup on edges. A carpenter can diagnose the cause
and plane the door, adjust hinges, or realign the frame as needed.
What is the difference between hollow core and solid doors?
Hollow core doors have a lightweight honeycomb interior and are affordable for internal use.
Solid timber doors are heavier, provide better sound insulation, and feel more substantial.
External doors should be solid or have a solid core for security and weather resistance.
Should I supply my own door or have the installer provide it?
Either approach works. Supplying your own door gives you full control over style and budget.
Having the installer supply it means they can ensure correct sizing and may have trade pricing.
