Hi, Can anyone tell me what is the best material to use to fill the gap between the new UPVC door frame and the brickwork after fitment. There will only be approximately 2 - 5 mm gap each side. I would like to make as little mess as possible and be sure that it is well insulated. I have used expanding foam in the past on my windows but remember how messy this was. Is there anything out there on the market better?

low modulus silicone will do the job.
Thank you for that. Am I right in thinking that I can get hold of fixing screws that go directly into brick work or breeze blocks?
direct frame fixings is one name for them.
my builders yard sells them individually now, also they are on ebay if you don't want to buy a box.
