Jon, as an admirer of high spec quality doors I couldn't resist posting these photos for you. A door that arrived in the workshop today for repair ( not my bodge, honest guv). The kingspan at the top was simply jammed in between the stonework, no framing and no draught excluder on the floor either. Shocking! ![[Linked Image]](https://www.tm-img.com/images/2020/09/16/Back-Door.jpg) ![[Linked Image]](https://www.tm-img.com/images/2020/09/16/IMG_20200916_090102658_HDR.jpg)

Takes your breath away doesn't it? The worse thing is that the installers probably thought that they did a good job!

The door must of been hung the other way round in the past by the looks of those hinge cut outs.

You've been framed springs to mind. I wonder if they offered to do the drive as well

Oh dear, that's been re-purposed from somewhere, perhaps without the prior owners knowledge, at least the hinges are 'Certifire' spec, which is actually for internal fire doors (which that door is deffo not)

Bodged a used milk bottle into a cr*p catcher having decided to take off the rebound spring gaiters and give all the old grease a flush out I'd forgotten what a greasy mucky job it was  ![[Linked Image]](https://www.tm-img.com/images/2020/10/14/Kingpin-wash.md.jpg)
