Hi,
I'm doing a property refurb and the building inspector seems happy enough with the work I have done so far, adding en-suites etc.
It is an Edwardian terrace, and I had intended to replace the existing wooden front door with a composite door.
However, the door opening is quite narrow and by the time I allow for the frame, the door will need to be quite small.
I have come across a period door which I can restore, and which would look great painted with new furniture. The door has a small single glazed arch.
Are there any building reg issues to consider before installing this door ?
Might he ask for paperwork and U values for a period door ?
Thanks
