Your questions answered

Can you fit just one door in Derby?

Yes — from a single door to a full building. Where possible, small jobs are scheduled alongside other visits in Derbyshire.

Can you work around tenants or staff in Derby?

Yes. We phase work in occupied buildings and keep escape routes available. Each door is planned to be removed and replaced the same day; if that isn't possible, the opening is made secure and we tell you in advance.

What does a Derby quote include?

Survey, certified doorset, ironmongery, installation, removal of old doors and a handover pack. VAT is added at the standard rate.

Can HMO bedroom doors have locks?

Yes, but they must open from inside without a key, typically with a thumb-turn, and be tested with the door.
