Call for our experienced Door Repair Team to quickly and efficiently fix any of your uPVC, Composite Door or Wooden Door problems. We cover all types of issues including faulty handles and hinges, damaged or broken uPVC panels or the Glass inserts, Boarding Up including uPVC and Composite new door replacement if required and repairing or replacing faulty Locks. Multipoint Locks commonly found in uPVC and Composite Doors provide solid security when coupled with Euro Cylinder Key operated Locks. The Multipoint lock is activated when the key is turned and the handle lifted which locks multiple points around the door into the keep. If your lock is not functioning properly it could indicate a fault with the Locking Mechanism or the Gearbox but may only become obvious when you notice the handle isn't working as well as it should. Door drop or misalignment where the door doesn't fit well in the frame and is sticking when opening or closing may be due to the hinges. Composite Doors are especially heavy at almost twice the thickness of a uPVC Door so issues can occur if the the incorrect hinges have been previously fitted. The hinges we fit are ideal for Composite Doors that take the strain and evenly spread the weight ensuring a great fit into the frame. We cover all types of uPVC Door Repairs even if you have a problem not listed here, give us a call and we are sure to have a solution.

Whatever you need a lock for, we will have it. We supply, fit and install locks to complete security systems for both the Residential and Commercial sectors all from well known branded suppliers such as Asec, ERA, G.U, Yale, Lockmaster, Winkhaus, Fuhr Millenco and many more. As a standard and ideal for uPVC and Composite for Front and Back Doors we use the Anti Snap Euro Cylinder Lock having the additional bonus features of being Anti Pick and Anti Drill. It comes with 5 keys with an extra benefit that if used in two doors, the keys can be keyed alike reducing the amount of keys needing to be constantly carried around and leaving enough for spares in case you ever lock yourself out! The Euro Cylinder Lock is also easy to upgrade by changing the internal cylinder for a higher specification such as the Brisant Ultion SS312 Diamond Approved Cylinder. More common for Wooden Doors is the 5 Lever Mortice Lock ideally the British Standard BS3621 version which is thoroughly tested against drilling and picking which are common unauthorised entry methods. To check your Mortice Lock, look on the faceplate for the engraved BS Kitemark and number of levers the lock has. If you have a 5 Lever Mortice Lock without a BS Kitemark or maybe you have a 3 Lever Mortice Lock which doesn't carry a British Standard Rating, you should have a British Standard approved Nightlatch fitted for additional security. As well as front and back door security we also supply, fit and upgrade Locks and Patlocks for Patio and French Doors, Cabinet Locks, Garage Door Defenders and Bolts, Sheds and Outdoor Storage Units, Perimeter Gates and Lockups. Commercial Locks include Master Key Systems, Keyless Systems, Digital Locks and Emergency Door Hardware. We also have a Safe and Vault expert on the team for Lock opening services, repairs, moving and disposal. What we don't know about Locks isn't worth knowing anyway so we are always happy to discuss your specific requirements and make sure that your home and possessions are well protected.

How resistant is your home to unauthorised access? Regular checks on your uPVC Doors and Windows will keep you aware of any repairs or replacements required. Check the frames and consider whether to protect the Hinges or put a Restrictor on the letterbox to stop anyone reaching in to lift keys or open the door.

Windows are also a common entry point so always make sure they are locked when not in use and Motion Activated outdoor lighting is a good way of stopping a criminal in their tracks making them move on to an easier option.
