Has your uPVC or composite door become difficult to lock or unlock? Is there a gap letting in cold air, or do you feel it’s no longer secure? Over the years, we’ve helped Barnsley homeowners by diagnosing these issues. With our door servicing in Barnsley, we can realign your doors and have them working like new… or even better than new!


Door servicing & realignment in Barnsley

When a door begins to stick, catch on the frame, or requires extra effort to open or close,  people assume that a complete door replacement is the only solution. However, most doors can be serviced or repaired at a fraction of the cost of a replacement door.

Door servicing experts in Barnsley

Typical door alignment issues we can resolve include:

  • Handles needing force to lift or push down
  • Doors are touching the frame, especially at the top, instead of closing smoothly
  • Lifting doors into place to enable them to close (especially French doors)
  • Draughts from gaps around the door, letting in cold air AND warm air out!

In most cases, the hinges require adjustment or realignment to restore smooth operation. For uPVC doors, this may involve removing the centre panel and strategically placing specific packers to square the door. Composite door hinges are temperamental, and you can end up with a door you can not close at all. Attempting these fixes without prior experience will often exacerbate the problem. Our professional locksmith door service ensures the job is done correctly, saving you money and protecting your door’s locking mechanism from failure.
