The Detail

What the Guarantee Covers.

The guarantee applies to products found to be defective as a result of the following. If any of these apply to your door, contact us and we will make it right.

Workmanship Defects
Any fault in the manufacturing or assembly of the door unit that causes the product to underperform or fail prematurely is fully covered under the guarantee.
Delamination
If the surface of the slab or frame begins to separate, peel or delaminate under normal use and environmental conditions, this is covered in full for the duration of the guarantee period.
Discolouration
Significant colour fade or discolouration resulting from a defect in the material or finish — not caused by chemical exposure or improper cleaning — is covered against workmanship failure.
Hardware & Lock Failure
Manufacturing defects in handles, hinges, letterplates, multi-point locking systems and cylinders are covered. Hardware must be maintained in accordance with the care guidelines.
Keep It in Good Shape

A Little Care Goes a Long Way.

Door Slab & Frame

Wipe the door slab down with warm water and a soft microfibre cloth. For the frame, warm soapy water works well. Stubborn marks on the frame can be treated with a specialist PVC cleaner following the manufacturer's guidelines.

Locks & Hinges

Lubricate hinges every six months with a light engineering oil such as 3-in-1. For cylinder locks, use a graphite powder or Teflon-based lubricant only — avoid WD40 and wet oils as these will jam the lock mechanism over time.

What to Avoid

Do not use washing up liquid, abrasive cleaners, scouring pads, bleach, solvents, adhesives or high pressure steam cleaners on any part of the door. Remove jewellery before cleaning to avoid surface scratches.

Important: Always engage the multi-point locks when the door is shut to protect the door from thermal distortion. This is especially important during hot weather.

Good to Know

Guarantee Exclusions.

The guarantee covers manufacturing defects under normal use. The following are not covered as they fall outside the scope of a manufacturer guarantee.

Damage caused by misuse, accident or impact
Damage from improper cleaning products or chemical exposure
Normal wear and tear over time
Damage resulting from incorrect installation
Oak and Dark Wood finish slabs — these carry a 5-year guarantee rather than the standard 10 years
Thermal distortion caused by failing to engage the locks when the door is shut
Modifications or repairs carried out by a third party not authorised by us
