when i did this mate i used a flush contact

It is very difficult to fit flush contacts to UPVC doors.

The standard contact to use on UPVC doors is one like this:

yeah its difficult but as long as you avoid the locking system area they are toattly hidden

yes, they were here when i bought the house so no guarnatee. But when i was looking at doing it, someone said to me how i was planning on fitting surface contacts, as you would have to drill for them also. I have seen others use a combination of surface and flush inside the door
