I've still got to figure out if it's really the door or the frame that's
bent (in not at home for a few days).
I wonder if the frame is slightly too big and it's bent slightly to
wedge it in.
I've no idea how to adjust fixings.
Having recently fitted a UPVC door and frame at home, you have to measure
the opening carefully, and order up the unit with clearance all round.
Precisely so it can be packed absolutely true and square. If the frame
ain't level and square the door won't fit properly. Which is why you've
paid a lot extra to have it fitted for you.
Buying my door online and fitting it myself saved 50% of the cost. So with
that sort of labour cost, you're entitled to have it done properly.
If the frame is too big, the only real option is to have the whole lot
replaced properly. If it is only one brick which is causing the problem,
it might be possible to fix that.
But easy enough to check yourself with a decent spirit level.
