Replacing a panel instead of the whole door
Many uPVC doors use a removable infill panel held within the door sash. If that panel is cracked, dented or unsuitable, it may be possible to replace it while retaining the surrounding door. The panel size and thickness must match the system.
Choosing a suitable replacement
Replacement options may include solid, decorative or glazed panels, subject to compatibility and the required safety specification. Colour and finish matching depends on available products. Accurate measurements and inspection of the beads are essential.
Common issues we can discuss
- Cracked or damaged infill panels
- Changing solid and glazed designs
- Suitable replacement panels for cat flaps
- Matching panel size, thickness and finish
Panels for cat flaps and changing needs
A suitable replacement flat panel can sometimes accommodate a cat flap without cutting the original panel. This can be useful when a different layout is needed. The flap, panel construction and installation height must all be checked.
