Signs your hinges need attention

How we fix hinge problems

  1. 1. Inspect

    We check hinge wear, sash alignment and the condition of seals and gaskets.

  2. 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. 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 Wellingborough

Perished gaskets

Rubber seals harden and shrink with age and sunlight, so even a well-aligned window can start letting in cold air.

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.

Weight of the glass

Double glazed sashes are heavy. Over years that weight wears the friction stays, so the window drops and rubs on the frame.

Window & door hinge repair in Wellingborough: FAQs

Can you fix a dropped uPVC door in Wellingborough?

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.

Will new hinges stop draughts?

Often yes. Combined with new gaskets, a correctly aligned sash seals tightly against the frame.

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.
