Lock Repair in Fence Houses
Not every lock change is because a lock has failed. In Fence Houses the front door lock of a newly bought house was too big and easy to snap, so it was changed.
We cover the whole Fence Houses area for this service, including Bournmoor, Chilton Moor, Easington Lane, East Rainton, Hetton-le-Hole, Hetton Downs, High Moorsley, Moorsley, Newbottle, Penshaw, Philadelphia, Shiney Row, South Hetton and West Rainton.
New locks and window repairs for a Fence Houses home
A customer who had just bought a house in Fence Houses wanted the locks sorted. Most of the window handles had no keys, a bedroom window had a large, draughty gap caused by faulty hinges, and the front door lock was too big for the door and very susceptible to lock snapping. The window handles, the hinges and the door lock were all changed.
