The door set guide
What is inside a complete flush door set, what each part does, and how to measure your opening before you order.
What is in the set
- Door leaf
- The flat-faced panel that swings — smooth, modern and easy to wipe down.
- Frame
- The timber surround fixed into the wall opening that the leaf hangs from.
- Architraves
- The trim around the frame on both sides — covers the joint between frame and wall so the reveal looks finished.
- Lock
- A mortise lock set into the leaf, fitted and tested on site.
- Rubber seal
- A perimeter seal that cuts draughts, dust and noise — and softens the close.
- Handle
- A lever handle on rose, matched to the lock.
- PU foam
- Expanding foam that fixes the frame to the wall — solid, without packed mortar gaps.
- Delivery & installation
- The set arrives at your site and the crew fits it — you do not need a separate fundi.
How to measure a door opening
Measure the width
Inside the opening, brick to brick (or frame to frame), at top, middle and bottom. Use the smallest figure.
Measure the height
Floor to underside of the lintel or frame, on the left and right. Again, use the smallest.
Note the wall thickness
Measure how thick the wall is — it sets the frame depth.
Check the swing
Stand where the door will open towards you: hinged left or hinged right? Note it down.
