Hi,
just had new porch fitted in last few days. Problems with the door being 7/8mm difference top and bottom edge. Contractors have repositioned frame at bottom and its now not too bad but the rubber gasket is not touching at the top edge, if I lift handle its somewhat better. Contractor says that the door will settle down and bed in after a few weeks, seems crazy excuses to me. My query is should the door seal, without the handle being lifted. I thought the handle being lifted was to engage the 5 or 6 point locking mechanism.
Thanks for any tips
Dave
Yes it is UPCV
