Hello All, We replaced all the internal doors at the beginning of the year. On hot days they expand and are difficult to shut properly. They're a perfect fit on cool days. Is there any way to solve this problem? I'm loathed to take any off the edges as they'll be too small for most of the...

Breezer, It's not going in the bathroom it's going on the other side of a wall which I'll be running the pipes through :wink: . Cheers guys, looks like a goer :) .
