Service overview

## Door Handle Repairs Explained

### What the service is
We remove the worn handle, check the lock it operates, and fit a correctly sized replacement handle set.

### Common signs
The handle droops instead of springing back, feels loose, wobbles on its fixings, or has broken.

### Handle or lock?
A drooping handle can be a worn handle spring or a worn lock gearbox. We check which, so you only pay for what is needed.

### Why it matters
A failing handle puts extra strain on the lock and can leave you unable to open or lock the door.

The cost of waiting

## What Happens If You Leave It

- A drooping handle often means wear that spreads to the lock.
- A snapped handle can leave you unable to operate the door.
- Loose fixings wear the holes in the door, making a solid fix harder later.

### Common mistakes to avoid

- Fitting a handle with the wrong spacing for the lock.
- Overtightening fixings until the handle binds.
- Ignoring a lock fault behind a drooping handle.
