How we fix hinge problems
1. Inspect
We check hinge wear, sash alignment and the condition of seals and gaskets.
2. Replace or adjust
Friction stays are swapped like-for-like; door hinges are adjusted or replaced to lift the door back into line.
3. Seal
Worn gaskets are renewed so the window or door closes tight and stops draughts.
New hinges and seals cost a fraction of new windows and can make a noticeable difference to draughts and heating bills.
Why it breaks: what our engineers find in Northampton
Dropped doors
Door hinges compress and loosen with use, letting the door sag. It then catches on the frame and leaves gaps that let draughts in.
Corrosion
Cheaper stays rust, especially on exposed elevations, making them stiff, noisy and eventually seized.
Wind catching open windows
A gust catching an open sash can bend friction arms in seconds, leaving the window loose or unable to close properly.

Window & door hinge repair in Northampton: FAQs
Will new hinges stop draughts?
Often yes. Combined with new gaskets, a correctly aligned sash seals tightly against the frame.
Can you fix a dropped uPVC door in Northampton?
Yes — most dropped doors are fixed by adjusting or replacing the hinges, usually in one visit.
Why does my window drop when I open it?
The friction hinges (stays) have worn out. Replacing them restores the sash position and stops it rubbing.
Do you match existing hinge sizes?
Yes, we measure and fit matching stays and hinges for your window or door type.
