By GOBO explains the steps you should take to prepare your home to have new doors installed.

Installing new doors is an excellent way to improve the aesthetic of your home, or take advantage of your home’s outdoor areas. In order to make the installation process run smoothly, there are a number of steps you should check off before your installer arrives. As the experts in aluminium sliding doors in Perth, we have listed a number of ways that homeowners can properly prepare their homes for new doors.

Tidy your home

It’s important to ensure the area near the installation site is tidy and neat. Clearing the area will allow your installer to have easy access during the process, reducing the risk of accidents or damage. A tidy working area also means that your installer will be able to complete their tasks more efficiently, resulting in a smooth installation process.

Protect your furniture

When installing aluminium sliding doors in Perth, we always encourage our customers to protect their furniture. Replacing a door is a messy process, so ensure that all furniture close to the installation site is covered by a protective sheet. This will help to avoid any damage occurring to your furniture and prevent any particles from settling into upholstery or fabric. For advice on how to properly protect your furniture during an installation, contact By GOBO.

Disable your alarm system

Disabling your alarm system is necessary for preventing any false alarms or disruptions during the installation process. This step is often forgotten before the process begins, but it is important for ensuring that your door installation runs smoothly without any disturbances. 

Clear your driveway

You must allow ample space for your installer to park their vehicle, and transport your new doors and equipment, so clearing your driveway is a must. This also provides unobstructed access to your home, which allows for the safe and convenient delivery of materials and the removal of your old door.

By completing this checklist, you’ll help the installation process of your new doors run smoothly, which means you’ll be able to enjoy it more quickly. If you’re in the market for aluminium sliding doors in Perth that are installed professionally and efficiently, contact By GOBO today.
