The opening in Lincoln
Lincoln hillside terraces mean a steep carry, and frames that have dropped on the low side. Width and height are taken at the head, the middle and the cill before anything is cut.
What fails on these doors
The latch is set to the leaf after the door is hung, not before. A leaf that only binds on that edge is eased. A twisted door, or a hollow skin that is split, is replaced.
