Where we cover
Shefford, Campton, Meppershall, Clifton, and nearby SG17 areas.
Problems we repair
Hinges, rollers, dragging or dropped panels, threshold or header catches, closing and locking faults, locks, cylinders, handles, keeps, tracks, hardware, failed seals, and draughts. A complete doorset overhaul is a repair option used when frame distortion is beyond the manufacturer’s tolerances and/or panel realignment cannot compensate for the degree of frame distortion. It can include structural repairs where the frame is distorted, but not every complete overhaul requires structural frame repair. Toe and heel is one important area checked when appropriate: manufacturer-specific glazing packers positioned at diagonally opposite corners of the glass help keep the sash square and level, supporting smooth movement and, where relevant, lock alignment.
A clear report is especially useful when a doorset has more than one symptom, such as a dragging panel alongside a difficult lock. The Shefford page explains how the assessment separates those connected issues before repair is booked. See how it works ↗
How a visit works
Why do you charge £79 for an assessment when some companies offer free quotes?
Your assessment is carried out by an experienced engineer, not a salesman. We complete an in-depth assessment of all aspects of your bifold doorset, talk you through the findings while we are on site, and provide the information in the report that accompanies the quotation for any repairs recommended. No repair work is carried out during the assessment. The findings are followed by a comprehensive report and itemised quotation by email, with repairs arranged separately. If you choose to go ahead with the repair, the £79 assessment fee is credited against the repair cost, so you do not pay for the assessment in addition to the repair. The fee is also refunded if suitable parts are unavailable and we cannot provide a quote, or if the doorset is considered beyond economical repair. Seasonal changes in temperature, sunlight, and weather can make panels and frames expand and contract, so a temporary adjustment may not be enough. All work carried out is backed by our market-leading 12 month warranty, covering our workmanship and any parts supplied and fitted as part of the repair where applicable.
