Locksmith Cover in Barnes
A front door that will not open is the one fault you cannot work round: nothing else can be repaired until you are inside. That is what we were called to in Barnes, and what was behind it is below.
Our Work in Barnes
Front door that would not open
The customer could not get the front door open and said the bottom of the door was the part that stuck. Entry was gained without damage; the gearbox was damaged and the bottom hook case was nearly hanging off. Both were replaced and the door locked and opened normally again. Read the job.
If your uPVC or composite door is sticking low down or will not open, see uPVC door lock repairs in Sunderland.
Why the bottom of the door? A multipoint door locks at several points along its edge, and the hook cases at the top and bottom take the most strain when a door is slammed or has dropped. When one breaks, the door can jam at that end even though the lock in the middle still turns.
