Ive just had replacement UPVC windows and doors fitted throughout the
house. We chose a local supplier/fitter based on price and
recommendations. They weren't the cheapest - and even had Anglian come
back and undercut their price.

Anyway, now they are fitted, I cant help think we've made an enormous
mistake.

The Very large Patio door was replaced with French Doors. 2 Doors and
2 side panels. When the doors are pulled shut, the whole frame
vibrates. The frame at the top and bottom physically move. The same
applies on the Front door as well.

I've come across this more than once. People ask me to fill cracks around
patio doors & I point out the movement & tell them there is no point in
filling it until they stop the movement.

IMO the problem is that the fitters don't want to fix through the top of the
frame because of the lintel, which could cause them a problem.
