Getting your uPVC doors working again
One problem we encounter time and time again is people struggling to close their uPVC doors. This is why we carry a selection of tools that can help rectify the issue, avoiding the need for a complete door replacement.
We stock uPVC multi locks and Euro cylinders in our mobile workshop to get your door functioning like new again. You will be surprised just how easy it is to replace the locking mechanism or realign your door. Contact our experienced Barnsley locksmith on 01226 307183 to see the difference for yourself.
Repairing broken uPVC door mechanisms
Carrying out uPVC door mechanism repairs is one of the most common tasks we perform on a weekly basis. After continuous use, the multipoint locking mechanisms on your uPVC doors will eventually wear out and fail - in fact, the average lifespan is just ten to 12 years.
If you can’t open the door but the key is turning 360 degrees, this usually tells us the multipoint lock has failed. We will replace the mechanism for a fraction of the cost of replacing the entire door. There is every chance the replacement lock will last just as long as the original, or possibly even longer if the door wasn’t fitted properly in the first place!
We carry over 200 different multipoint locking mechanisms and gearboxes with us at all times. This allows repairs to be completed on the first call out and your property to be secure on the same day.
uPVC door repairs in Barnsley
Many of our customers believe their uPVC door locks are too old to repair, but this often isn't the case. Even when parts become unobtainable, there are always other alternatives that will often offer a higher level of security than before. We can also offer replacement handles, barrels and letterboxes if you want to give your property a fresher overall look.
Fixing common uPVC door problems
It’s highly likely we will be able to open your uPVC door without causing any damage. Each door mechanism fails in its own unique way and with over 30 years’ experience, we will recognise the quickest but damage-free way to open up your door. If you’ve been told that your door can’t be opened, give us a call. We love a challenge and haven’t been beaten yet!
If your uPVC door won't lock, there are a couple of things you should check before calling our locksmith in Barnsley. If the door can still be locked while it is ajar, the multi-point lock should be fine and the door needs realigning. If the door handle is being prevented from lifting all the way, it can’t be locked.
In the event that the door is no longer square with the frame, it will need ‘toeing and heeling’. Another option is to alter the hinges or the keeps adjusting on the frame. It’s a good idea to enlist the help of someone with experience in uPVC door repairs in Barnsley rather than attempting to deal with the problem yourself, as you could cause more damage.
In the event that the door isn’t locking while it is ajar, then the problem is more serious and the chances are the multi-point lock has failed. We find that the multi-point locks fail open and closed in equal amounts. If your door is left open and you can’t lock it, our aim is to get to you the same day you call to secure your property as soon as possible.
