Default Finding A new(ish) UPVC door to fit an old UPVC frame?

Hi there,

Is it easy to get a new(ish) UPVC door to replace an existing one, without
replacing the frame? In other words, are UPVC doors at-all standardised in
terms of size, and hinge positioning, lock position, etc?

Many thanks,
A

No is the simple answer. I don't know of any supplier that would even
attempt what you want and the cost would probably be greater than buying
the whole lot anyway.

Bite the bullet as replacing the door/frame set is not difficult.
