Common uPVC Door Lock Problems

uPVC doors rely on several components working together: the gearbox, hooks, rollers, latch, handle, and the euro cylinder. When any part becomes worn or misaligned, the door may stop locking or opening correctly.

We regularly assist homeowners with issues such as:

• Door handles lifting but the lock not engaging
• Key turning but the door not unlocking
• Stiff or difficult key movement
• Broken or worn euro cylinders
• Misaligned doors that will not lock properly
• Multi-point locking mechanisms that have failed

If you are unsure what part of the door is causing the issue, a locksmith can assess the mechanism on-site and explain available options.

How Secure Is Your uPVC Door?

Millions of pvc doors can be found throughout the UK. The older ones were often supplied with very cheap and flimsy locks. As a result, many homes across the UK are only protected by a lock that cost about 40p! Criminals quickly jumped on this weak point and hundreds of thousands of burglaries were carried out using household tools to simply snap the locks and gain entry into private homes. It is so fast and easy that they were carried out even in broad daylight in the middle of the day. While you were out working these thieves were going through your things and taking valuables, and they could run through the house in a matter of minutes.

If you are unsure whether your existing lock is suitable, a locksmith can assess the cylinder and explain available upgrade options.
