Malvern Road runs from our door to Malvern. The houses at that end are larger and often have four ways in rather than one.

About Malvern

Malvern is mostly generous period homes on larger blocks, with townhouse developments and smaller apartment buildings between them. Established shopping strips serve the surrounding streets.

The size of the houses changes the job. A large home often has a formal front entrance, one or two garden doors, a side path entry and an internal garage door. That is four openings, and they usually get uneven attention. The front door is well maintained while the garden door has been stuck for years.

Period detail matters here too. Many Malvern homes still have original or early hardware that owners want to keep. That is often reasonable. Whether it can be kept depends on the wear inside the mechanism and how much the door and frame have moved. That needs a proper look, not a guess.
