Top causes we see in Manchester
The five reasons we get called for lock replacement more than any others.
- 1
Wear and tear over time
Most lock and door faults develop gradually — stiffness from age, mis-cut keys, hinges dropping. Caught early, the fix is usually a service rather than a replacement.
- 2
Snapped or stuck keys
Keys break in the lock when forced or when the cylinder pins are worn. We extract the broken portion non-destructively and assess whether the cylinder needs replacement.
- 3
Door dropped on its hinges
uPVC and composite doors settle over months and years. The lock won't engage cleanly, the handle stops working, the door won't latch. Realignment usually fixes it.
- 4
Lost or stolen keys
If a key has been lost outside the home, replace the cylinder. The cost is far smaller than the risk of someone trying the lost key against your door.
- 5
Insurance-driven upgrades
Many policies now require BS3621 mortice locks and TS007 3-star anti-snap cylinders. Documented upgrades often reduce premiums and always pay out cleanly on a claim.
