Hi there

Thinking of replacing old wooden doors with UPVC.

Was going to do it myself as I'm a competent DIY'er but wondered if there
was any good info/website to make sure I get it right.

Also anything I should look out for / avoid when buying a upvc door?
Finally, if I fit it myself would there a problem with lack of warranty and
build regs?

Thanks for your comments.

From experience do it in hot weather.
If you do it now and the clearances are minimal it will droop in hot weather and
the door will rub the frame.

Maybe I did it wrong or a cheap door but never again, I'll stick with ally or
wooden doors.

Try and find out how rigid the door is, this depends on the quality of the metal
frame
inside the upvc.
