A Lockout Near Seaham

When the keys are inside, a lockout can usually be solved without a new lock: once the door is opened without damage, the spare or locked-in keys get you back in.

• Locked out with spare keys inside — Murton. The customer was locked out of the house. The door was opened without damage, and the spare keys inside got him back in. See the job

Locked out? Call us. If you can, tell us whether the keys are inside.

Door Won’t Lock Properly

A door you cannot lock needs attention if it leaves the property insecure, but it is not always a failed part. In Murton two uPVC doors that were hard to lock were realigned and worked again. See the job

Failed cylinders and gearbox faults are the other usual causes; see our uPVC door lock repair service.

Keys Inside, or a Lock That Will Not Release

With the keys shut inside, the job is entry without damage; nothing else needs to change. When the door is shut because something has failed, as on the Seaham door that locked and unlocked but would not open, the door is opened first and then the failed part, there the gearbox, is replaced (the job).

Snapped Keys and Doors That Will Not Lock

A key that has snapped is drawn out of the cylinder before anything else is done, and the cylinder is replaced if it caused the break. A door that will not lock is treated as urgent when the property cannot be left; the cylinder or the gearbox is the usual cause.
