uPVC and composite door repairs in Swinton
A faulty multipoint locking mechanism is one of the most common problems I repair. Your door may become difficult to close, the handle may feel stiff, or the key may not turn properly. Eventually, the mechanism can fail, leaving the door stuck shut or unable to lock.
I specialise in uPVC door repairs and composite door repairs. Common problems include:
- uPVC doors jammed or stuck shut
- Composite door locks that won’t open
- Broken multipoint locking mechanisms
- Stiff door handles that are difficult to lift
- Keys snagging or refusing to turn
- Failed ERA, GU, Winkhaus and Fuhr gearboxes
- Doors catching against the frame
- Faulty hinges and poor door alignment
Where possible, I’ll replace the failed gearbox rather than the complete locking mechanism to help keep costs down. I’ll also check the door alignment and adjust the keeps where needed. Poor alignment can put extra strain on the lock and cause it to fail early.
Replacement locks and anti-snap security upgrades
Have you moved into a property in Swinton, lost your keys, or are you worried someone else still has a copy? I offer lock replacement services for uPVC, composite, wooden, and commercial doors.
For added security, I recommend TS007 3-star anti-snap locks, including Ultion high-security cylinders.
What Is lock snapping?
Lock snapping is a method burglars use to attack vulnerable euro cylinder locks, commonly fitted to uPVC and composite doors. A correctly fitted TS007 3-star cylinder provides tested protection against this type of attack. Read more about the standard on the Door & Hardware Federation website.
My mobile workshop also carries key-cutting equipment so that I can supply and test additional keys at your property.
Window, french door and patio door repairs
I also repair uPVC windows that won’t open, faulty window locks, broken handles and worn hinges. If your window won’t close properly or lets in draughts, I can check what’s causing the problem.
My patio door repair service covers sliding patio doors, French doors and many specialist locking systems. Replacement parts are often still available, even for doors and windows over 20 years old.
