Troubleshooting

Door does not close properly

Check for obstructions, ensure hinges are properly aligned and tightened, and verify that the door frame is square.

Visible damage to laminate finish

For minor scuffs, use a specialized laminate repair kit. For deeper damage, consult a professional or consider replacement if functionality is impacted.

Compromised fire resistance after installation

Immediately consult a qualified fire door installer or building safety professional. Ensure all fire-rated components and seals are correctly in place.
