Door Frame Skirting

November 9, 2020 By admin

Where a door frame is concern, the skirting is often forgotten about. The skirting of a door frame is mainly there for cosmetic reason and is more often than not found in condos and landed properties door frame.

The main reason for skirtings that require replacement is usually either wear and tear or water damaged, especially so for door frames that are located near the toilet.

As seen in the photo, the skirting of the door was damaged by water over time. The frame was still fine as such a replacement just the skirting is required. 

The example show is a skirting that is painted white with the outer most skirting painting already done and the inner skirting only with the base layer pending the paint work to be done. There are some skirting that is covered with laminate instead of paint.

The replacement of the skirting involves the removal of the old one, cutting to size and installation of the new skirting and in cases where the door height is taller, we would need to adjoin a small piece of skirting on the bottom to make up the full length.

The work involve in the replacement or repair of a skirting is usually less than that of a full replacement or repair of the door frame. The amount of time needed for the replacement would usually range between half a day to one day depending on the number of skirtings to be replaced.

In some the frame might need to be replaced too as the water has caused the door frame to rot. We could only advise accordingly to the situation upon a on site check.

Door Frame Damaged By Termite

November 6, 2020 By admin

Termite attack on door frame can be a horror story for many but unfortunately it is something that can happen frequently. There are 2 routes of action to take in such a case. 

  1. call the pest control company to exterminate the termite than call a door company for the replacement of the door frame or
  2. Have the door frame replaced first than call the pest control company.

At Singapore Door Repair, we are pretty much fine with both options and the decision is based usually on the pest control company recommandation and the owner urgency.

For example a recent case has door frame that is badly damaged by termites and the home has children below the age of 12 running around. As such the owner was worried for the safety of the kid and wants the door frame replaced first. The pest control company also required a image of the termite and as such we had to remove the frame for the owner to take a video of the termite for the pest control. After which a new frame is put up and the pest control company comes in to ensure that the termite are fully killed off after the work is done. For such cases, as we cannot transport the door frame back to our factory (as we do cannot risk the termites spreading in our van/factory and thus affecting other customer) we would require the owner help in the disposal of the old door frame on the spot.

There are also cases where the termites are taken care off first before a new frame is done.

Below are some images of frames that have been damaged by termites:

Rotten Door Frame Repair

October 7, 2020 By admin

Wooden door frames near the toilet area can get damaged by water easily. Sometimes we do encounter door frame that are rotten near the bottom due to water damage by water over a long period of time when cleaning the floors.

Recently we were engaged to do a partial patch up work for a rotten door frame without painting. We start by removing the rotten portion which is at the bottom part of the frame with care as the rear of the door frame has tiles by the side.

After which a new portion of the frame is inserted and nailed by machine into the wall. Last but not least the gaps are covered by putty. Finally a paint is coated over (not in pictures) to cover the wood.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Some possible cause of a damaged door frame includes:

  1. water damage
  2. termite attack on frame
  3. physical damage

For such partial replacement of damaged door frame, the area that is affected has to be limited and the end result would still not be as nice as a full replacement of door frame. 

However it is more cost effective than a replacement of the entire door frame.

Replacement of Broken Sliding Door Roller

October 1, 2020 By admin

One common issue that we encounter almost daily are broken roller on sliding door that leads to balcony (glass with aluminium frame). This is mostly due to wear and tear from constant use.

  • A broken roller would usually have the following sign and symptoms:
  • lock alignment going out of place as the door has sunk down due to the broken roller

difficulty in opening and closing the door

Solution for such an issue would require a replacement. For such replacement a few factors have to be considered:

Size and type of roller: There are various size and design of rollers. There are also cases where the roller are not available in the market any longer and our technician have to carry out modification work on the door. For a smooth rolling system the exact same type of roller are highly recommended as such we do decline some work due to clients passing us rollers that are totally different from the original.

Removal and reinstallation of door: In most jobs there is an allowance in space for the removal of the door in order to replace the roller at the bottom. Still in some rare cases we do not have such allowance which would require us to dismantle the frame and glass into pieces before commencing the work. After which a re-assembly is required.

Track System: While in most cases, the roller is the issue. There are still some instances whereby the track is what is giving the problem. As the roller roles on a track that is protruding out of the ground, a worn out track would affect the smoothness of the rolling system.

For an appointment to troubleshoot your sliding door system, call us at 6280 4615.
