Frequently asked questions
Quick answers to the questions we hear most often. Can't find what you're looking for? Get in touch and we'll help.
Send us clear photos of your existing part using our part identification service, on WhatsApp or by email.
Many window and door parts look very similar, so clear photos from several angles plus the key measurements are usually the fastest way for us to help identify the correct replacement.
Many window and door parts look very similar, so clear photos from several angles plus the key measurements are usually the fastest way for us to help identify the correct replacement.
Many uPVC, aluminium and timber window and door parts can look almost identical but differ by only a few millimetres or by their fixing positions, handing or operation. Clear photos and measurements help us identify the replacement more accurately and reduce the chance of you ordering the wrong part.
Please check the part before fitting or installing it.
Place the new part alongside your existing part and compare the overall size, shape, fixing positions and important measurements shown on the product page. For a door handle, for example, this may include fixing centres, PZ measurement, spindle position, backplate dimensions and spindle type.
Please don't screw, bolt or install a product simply to find out whether it fits. Fitting can leave screw marks, spindle marks, scratches or other signs of installation which can reduce the value of the product and may affect the refund available if you later return it.
If you're unsure, send us photos and measurements before fitting and we'll be happy to help.

You're welcome to carefully inspect a product and compare it with your existing part before deciding whether it's suitable.
If a product has been handled beyond what is reasonably necessary to inspect it and this has reduced its value — for example, because it has screw marks, spindle marks, scratches, tool marks or other signs of fitting — the refund may be reduced to reflect the actual reduction in value.
We don't apply an automatic restocking fee. See our Delivery & Returns policy for full details.
