Disadvantages of PVC

The biggest disadvantage is that they don’t look very presentable. However, we should remember that we are talking about “raw” doors, which means that they are still before being covered. And the truth is that veneers are currently available in every colour imaginable, so there is nothing to stop you from covering your uPVC door with a veneer of your choice.

What if the door warps?

This problem particularly affects people who live in areas where tectonic plates may move. The residents of Silesia are most at risk of warping doors, as they are exposed to rock bursts and mining damage due to mine subsidence. If the whole block is warping, it is difficult for the door not to warp as well. However, there is a way to fix it. PVC doors can be straightened using a pair of clamps, a long board and a wooden block. Place the door between two boards measuring, say, 50×100 mm, and position the block so that it presses against the door in the opposite direction to the warping. Clamp with a carpenter’s clamp and leave for as long as possible. The door should be straight after removing the clamps.
