Door repairs are common. UPVC Door Locks can break for a variety of reasons. Age can wear down the
mechanism or in some instances an attempted break-in can lead to faults.
As well as a lock cylinder most UPVC doors come fitted with a
multi-point lock known as a mechanism. The Mechanism consists of the
face plate which is the strip that runs up the edge of the door and
the internal workings. There is a wide range of manufacturers of
multi-point locks so getting the right lock for your door is not a
simple task. We have many years experience dealing with upvc
multi-point locks and have access to all serviceable and replaceable
parts for most makes.
Often if a lock fails, it's an ideal opportunity to replace the whole
mechanism for a more recent and more secure model.
People often choose lock upgrades as a result of police or insurance
company recommendation.
