My UPVC kitchen door has dropped/expands in the sun. Have tried to adjust the door frame using allan key and loosening/tightening screw fixings on the door frame but to no avail. Any ideas what to do next?
uPVC doors can be very temperature dependant. Fixing a dropped one can be as simple as turning the screws (though it sounds like you've tried that already) right up to as hard as stripping the door down and re-building it from the frame up.
The procedure most likely required is called a "toe and heel". Any good locksmith who knows his uPVC should be able to assist.
