Troubleshooting
Door does not hang straight or binds
Check if the frame is square and plumb. Adjust hinge positions or mortises as necessary. Ensure no obstructions are present.
Pre-finished surface is scratched or damaged
Minor scratches can often be buffed out with a soft cloth. For deeper damage, consult the manufacturer or a professional for suitable repair solutions, matching the existing finish.
Sound insulation is not as expected
Ensure the door is properly sealed within the frame. Check for gaps around the door and consider fitting acoustic seals or a draught excluder at the bottom.
