How to change the turning point on upvc door?

We are just completing an extension and wish to use our old upvc back door however it is opening the wrong way is there any way of changing the locks and hinges to the other side in order for it to swing the other way

if your door has a midrail then answer is no,unless you want to have a high midrail in your door,just turn door over so the head is now the cill,put drainage holes in and turn lock round and re-fit,use your door handles as a jig by turning them round,place handle fixing holes over top and bottom holes in door,mark the center of your lever handle then draw the hole for the euro cylinder,cut the holes into door and job done.you may need to buy a new center latch keep as they are handed
