Conservatory door lock repairs Doncaster
Conservatories usually have uPVC doors. They have a multi-point lock to make them secure and draught-proof. But, this mechanism can fail after many years of use. Conservatory doors are not like standard front or back doors. You may not be in a hurry to replace them with a new one if they don’t match the rest of the conservatory. So, you could be in search of conservatory door lock repairs Doncaster.
Common problems with conservatory door locks
One common problem with conservatory doors is a failed locking mechanism. If your key isn’t unlocking the mechanism and the door won’t open, the lock will likelyhave failed. We have the knowledge and skills to open and repair such doors at uPVC Door Repairs Doncaster. The average lifespan of multipoint locks is only 10-12 years, so it’s not uncommon for them to fail.
Door alignment
If the door can be opened but will not lock, check to see if you can lock the door while it is ajar. This shows if it is an alignment problem or if that something is actually broken in the lock itself. We can rectify either fault again.
The age of your conservatory is usually not an issue either if you were wondering. Here at uPVC Door Repairs Doncaster we have repaired doors that are over thirty years old!
Conservatory doors tend to suffer from alignment problems more than a standard uPVC back or front door. They tend to be double doors and if in the line of the sun, will be subject to higher temperatures.

If your handles are becoming tired and tatty, you can replace them. If you have tried finding new handles before and were told they don’t exist, call uPVC Door Repairs Doncaster. We will surprise you by saying that you can exchange them. It doesn’t matter who supplied and fitted them.
