Service overview

## Door Lock Repairs Explained

### What the service is
We inspect the door&#x27;s locking mechanism, cylinder, keeps and alignment, then repair or replace the failed parts so the door locks smoothly.

### Common signs
The key is stiff, the handle needs lifting hard, the door has to be slammed, or the lock only works some of the time.

### Alignment matters
A dropped door often stops the lock lining up with the keeps. We check the hinges and alignment as well as the lock itself.

### Why act early
A struggling lock usually fails completely in the end, and often at an awkward time.

The cost of waiting

## What Happens If You Leave It

- A stiff mechanism eventually jams, leaving the door stuck open or shut.
- Forcing the handle can break the internal gearbox.
- A door that will not lock is a security risk.

### Common mistakes to avoid

- Spraying the lock and forcing it rather than finding the cause.
- Replacing the cylinder when the mechanism has failed.
- Ignoring a door that has dropped on its hinges.

In detail

## Everything To Know About Door Lock Repairs

### Multi-point locks
Many uPVC and composite doors use a multi-point lock: one mechanism that throws several locking points along the edge of the door. Lifting the handle engages them, and turning the key secures them. Wear or misalignment anywhere along that mechanism can stop it working.

## Your Guarantee

- Replacement hardware such as hinges, locks and handles carries a 12-month manufacturer guarantee.
- Repair work carries a 12-month workmanship guarantee. It does not apply if you try to fix the problem yourself, or use a third party, before contacting DW Glazing.
