Hi, is it possible to raise a upvc door as it now scrapes the floor when opened due to new flooring being laid

There is an allen key located on the hinges under a plastic flap. These will allow you to raise the door up. Your best marking with a pen on the allen key to make sure you are making equal turns

You can possibly raise it adjusting the hinges

Yes there may be a small amount it can be raised by adjustment on the hinges.

Yes that would depend on the type of hinge, you may be able to get a little lift. Alternatively you could remove the door ,rib it and refit.
