Multipoint lock & gearbox faults
uPVC locking mechanism diagnosis and repair
We separate cylinder, gearbox, multipoint and alignment faults so parts are not replaced without identifying the cause.
Handle will not lift
A failed gearbox, multipoint fault or door alignment problem can stop the handle lifting and the locking points engaging.
Handle moves but door will not lock
The mechanism and locking points are checked to identify where movement is no longer being transferred correctly.
uPVC gearbox failure
Where the gearbox has failed, we assess the existing multipoint system and suitable repair or replacement options.
uPVC lock or cylinder replacement
If the fault is limited to the cylinder or another replaceable component, we avoid treating it as a full mechanism failure.
How do I know if the uPVC gearbox has failed?
Symptoms can include a handle that will not lift, a mechanism that does not move correctly or a door that cannot lock. Similar symptoms can also come from alignment, so diagnosis matters.
Can you replace a multipoint locking mechanism?
Where replacement is required, the existing mechanism and door are assessed so a suitable solution can be identified.
