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 Semilong
Loose fixing screws
Screws pulling out of the frame let hinges move, which throws the whole sash out of alignment.
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.
Perished gaskets
Rubber seals harden and shrink with age and sunlight, so even a well-aligned window can start letting in cold air.

Window & door hinge repair in Semilong: FAQs
Can you fix a dropped uPVC door in Semilong?
Yes — most dropped doors are fixed by adjusting or replacing the hinges, usually in one visit.
Do you match existing hinge sizes?
Yes, we measure and fit matching stays and hinges for your window or door type.
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.
Will new hinges stop draughts?
Often yes. Combined with new gaskets, a correctly aligned sash seals tightly against the frame.
