Hello,

Cheers.

If you bought in one of the big Diy places you'd have to find someone to fit it.

Were from the North East - Seen a few online websites with fitting around £850 which I suppose isn't a bad price?

Furts

Bear in mind black is a terrible colour choice when it comes to direct sunlight. If you are south facing, or there abouts, you run the risk of problems with fading, or movement, or damage.

Also beware of just buying on price, and on the internet. Doors do vary on quality.

We've had four Rockdoor ultimates fitted and they have been brilliant, we were going to go for Solidor but went to the Rockdoor after doing some reading.

Furts mentioned colour and he is spot on, we were warned not to pick a very dark coloured door for the front because it is in sunlight all day and can move and become awkward as a fit.

wickes are not the greatest doors on price or quality to be fair . often a long wait for orders too/ any bits needed in the future . That same door I can get from stirling in warrington for about £600 (they buy from global) or nudor in south wales for about £620 . If you have a uPVC one in now should be fairly easy to find someone to bang it in for a days pay /

Decent price if all is inc . Letterbox . type of handle and lock etc . you wont get much cheaper if youre happy with the product and company to fit it . go for it
