Burglary Timber Door Repairs
Forced entry can split timber around the lock, disturb hinges or damage the frame supporting the door.

Burglary Timber Door Repairs — repairing forced timber joints and damaged lock pockets; assessing forced-entry damage
The repair assessment considers the leaf and surrounding joinery, including any underlying decay. Agree the structural repair, replacement hardware and final surface finish together.
The detail that matters
Can damaged or decayed wood simply be covered with filler?
The affected material and cause need assessment; covering the surface does not restore unsuitable supporting timber.
Before the work
is agreed.
Can damaged or decayed wood simply be covered with filler?
The affected material and cause need assessment; covering the surface does not restore unsuitable supporting timber.
Will the repaired section blend into the old door?
Ageing, grain and previous coatings can remain visible, so agree the likely finish and any wider decoration beforehand.
What should I include in this enquiry?
Give the postcode, affected opening and whether the property can currently be secured. Photographs taken from a safe position can help; also mention damaged frames or hardware beyond the obvious break.
How is the quotation worked out?
Urgent securing, permanent replacement parts, glass specification and access can be separate cost items. Ask the quotation to identify each stage, disposal and any finishing work.
Is temporary securing the same as a permanent repair?
No. Where it is needed, agree the purpose and duration of temporary work alongside the plan for the finished repair.
What damage should be recorded before the work is agreed?
Identify the leaf or sash, frame, glazing and locking points affected so that the repair scope is clear and remaining defects are not overlooked.
