Lock fault diagnosis
Repair the cause of the lock problem
A stiff or jammed lock can be caused by the cylinder, latch, mechanism or door alignment. We assess the cause before recommending replacement.
Jammed or stiff lock
We check for wear, cylinder faults and alignment issues that can make the key or lock difficult to operate.
Key turns but door will not unlock
The fault may be inside the locking mechanism rather than the key itself. The door and lock are assessed before repair.
Broken key or failed cylinder
Broken-key extraction and cylinder faults are assessed to determine whether the existing lock can remain in reliable service.
Door will not lock correctly
Door alignment, latches and multipoint components can prevent correct locking even when the cylinder still turns.
Can a faulty lock be repaired instead of replaced?
Yes, when a dependable repair is suitable. If the lock or component is too worn or damaged, the replacement options are explained first.
Why is my lock suddenly stiff?
Wear, cylinder problems or door movement can make a lock stiff. Forcing the key can make the problem worse, so the cause should be checked.
