Multi-point UPVC Lock repairs Norfolk & Suffolk
Are your handles getting tighter to lift? or the key harder to turn? Then you require a Upvc door doctor!
This can be the first sign of a failing multi-point lock, but this doesn't always mean that the actual lock has failed, More often than not this can be a sign of a poorly aligned door which can be caused by extremely hot or cold weather.
If this is caught early enough before the multi-point lock becomes damaged this can be relatively easily remedied by making a few slight adjustments to the door to re-align the lock to the keep (the part on the frame that the door locks into), Fort Cox Locksmiths & Access Control can have your multi-point lock operating like new once more at only a fraction of the cost of a new multi-point locking system .
Even if your lock has already failed and the door is currently jammed locked Our UPVC Locksmiths Norfolk can open the door using specialist tools and repair or replace the multi-point locking strip without damaging the door.
We stock many makes and models of gearboxes for multipoint locking systems so the chances are that we can make the repair on our first visit giving you one less thing to worry about.
