Do you remove the old doors?
Yes. Removal and disposal of the old door and frame is included when we replace a doorset in Borehamwood.
Will I get certificates for the doors fitted in Borehamwood?
Every doorset is listed in your handover pack with the manufacturer's certificate reference, plus an installation record and photos.
