Ensure Your Safety With Fast and Efficient Door Lock Repairs
When it comes to the most common fault seen in PVCu doors, it has to be the failure of the multipoint locking mechanism.
If the door is difficult to lock when pushing the handle upwards it can be cured with a few minor adjustments, but if left it will put pressure on the centre gearbox of the locking mechanism causing it to break and having to be replaced.
Richard Stocks Most Parts for Lock Replacements & Repairs
We stock most parts for the repair or replacement of broken locking mechanisms and at the same time of fitting the new lock we will re-align the door if possible whilst we are there to ensure the lock will not jamb again and give many years of trouble free service.
We can also fix new handles, hinges and letterboxes to your door.
Here is a lock that has been snapped in the Newbold area of Chesterfield, which we were called out to repair.

Anti Snap Locks in Derbyshire | Chesterfield and Surrounding Areas
40% of burglaries in England and Wales involve the forcing of a Door.
Thieves use tools like hammers, mole grips and screwdrivers to snap the locks and can gain access in under a minute. This technique does not require experience or skill, just brute force.
Lock snapping involves the snapping of the cylinder in two, by applying force, and removing the outside part of the cylinder to expose the locking mechanism, allowing the door to be easily unlocked and opened from the outside.
