Sorted I found out what the problem was so if any one else has the same problem it is quite easy to sort out. the problem was the thermistor on the hot water system it cost just over £10 to buy the part and took about 30mins including draining hot water system on the boiler and refilling

If they are 'flag' hinges which are on the face of the profile there is usually a allen key screw in the bottom this bears on a pin which adjusts it vertically but if the door was not ' toe and healed' properly when it was fitted it will not work.

Just make sure the footings go down to firm ground I usually go to a minimum of 600 mm. trench fill to about 240 mm below damp allowing 3 courses class b bricks to bring it up to damp , make sure you get the footings level otherwise it makes it harder from there up. hope this helps
