Many uPVC Door Handles are fitted with a Door Spring cassette in the backplate to stop the handle from sagging but faulty springs will leave you with a floppy handle. The handles on Double Glazed Doors do not have a spring cassette instead relying on the lock spring to keep the handle from sagging, therefore a repair in this case will require the lock mechanism to be changed. A misaligned door will put pressure on a handle, a problem with the tubular latch will cause a handle to stick or become stiff, a spindle that is too long can render the handle useless and possibly lock you out. There are various reasons why a uPVC Door Handle may be causing problems but we are always happy to come out and assess the problem if you are not sure. Once the culprit has been determined, we can give you a no hassle Free No Obligation Quote to Repair it there and then. If there is a need to change the handle and you fancy a change of style from one brand to another, this is perfectly possible as long as all the key positions like the keyhole, the lever and the screws all fit in the same place and we have a large range of handles in different styles and finishes for you to choose from.

Do you have a door that sags, doesn't open or shut properly? Put an end to struggling getting in and out of your front door. uPVC Door Adjustment will also cure draughts and stop the door rattling in the frame. There are three types of hinges used on uPVC Doors the Butt Hinge, the Flag Hinge and the Rebate Hinge and our team carry stock of all types of hinges from different suppliers enabling them to fit a suitable alternative if your faulty Hinge is no longer manufactured. Hinges are usually the reason why doors sag or become misaligned as the screws that secure the hinge in place slowly loosen over time. Although the Hinge is the culprit here a Misaligned door can spread the fault effect causing other parts to fail such as the lock and the handle as you exert extra pressure trying to manually realign the door every time you come in or go out. Give us a call for one of our friendly local Locksmiths to come out and take the strain of repairing your door so that it once again opens and shuts with ease.

When you find your uPVC Door is difficult to open and close due to it sticking, which will be very noticeable, this can be down to it's alignment. For a uPVC door to operate smoothly, the door needs to be aligned with top and bottom equal distances. If your uPVC door is of old age, this may require adjusting every so often, due to frequent changes in weather conditions this can have an effect over time, along with the weight causing it to drop especially if it has a large piece of glass within, that is heavy stuff! there are several factors that can cause a uPVC door to become out of align, which can include closing the door harshly, but one important factor is, it may just have been fitted incorrectly from the word go. No matter the type of Alignment issue your uPVC Door may be suffering from, there is a few ways to resolve which is best left to a professional to first assess then correct utilising knowledgeable techniques. Please feel free to call for some friendly advice and a no obligation quote.

The Multipoint Lock is commonly found in uPVC Doors along with a Euro Cylinder Lock. With the correct positioning of the handle and the turn of a key, multiple locks slot into place simultaneously giving a high level of security but as secure as these locks are, all locks have a lifespan. The most common causes of locking issues come from the uPVC Door being misaligned or a uPVC Double Glazed Door that has had the glass panels inserted incorrectly, the Multipoint Locking System has multiple locking parts that move the length of the door and frame any of which could have a fault and uPVC Doors can expand and contract depending on weather conditions where even 1mm can make a difference to the Lock Mechanism. Give our Leicester uPVC Door Repairs team a call for some friendly advice on the mechanism repair solutions.

The Door Lock Case or the Gearbox is attached to the back of the faceplate and conveniently in 8 out of 10 Door Lock Mechanisms the gearbox is interchangeable however as you have probably realised by now, all the moving parts of a uPVC Door work together to create a secure defence against unauthorised access to your home so it works that faults too have a knock on effect and the Door Lock Case is no exception. Misalignment or a faulty handle can accelerate the wear and tear of a faulty part so we advise to keep the repair costs down, try and call us as soon as you realise there is a problem so that there is only one part needing repair instead of several.
