Locksmith Cover in Castletown
Castletown’s two jobs were both lock changes, and neither was because a lock had broken in the usual sense: one set of French doors had keys nobody could account for, the other lock had become unreliable from outside.
Our Work in Castletown
French door locks changed after moving in
The customer had just moved in and did not know how many keys to the french doors were still about, so the locks were changed. Read the job.
A lock that would not lock from outside
The door was hard to lock from outside because the lock was faulty. It was replaced with an anti-snap thumbturn cylinder, so nobody inside has to find a key to get out in an emergency. Read the job.
Moved in recently? Changing the cylinder is usually all that is needed; see lock repair in Sunderland.
The two jobs show the two sides of a thumbturn. On the outside a key still locks the door; inside, a turn of the knob opens it, so nobody is hunting for a key in a hurry. For French doors with no record of who holds keys, a new cylinder is usually all that is needed: the frame, handles and mechanism stay.
