Why a uPVC door stops locking
uPVC doors on estates in Pontprennau, St Mellons and Church Village can drop on their hinges or wear out their multipoint mechanisms. Our engineers carry common uPVC parts, so adjustments and repairs can often be done on the first visit.
Most uPVC doors use a multipoint lock: one handle drives a gearbox in the door edge, which throws hooks and rollers into the frame. When the handle goes floppy, spins, or will not lift, the gearbox has usually worn out. When the door needs force to lock, it has usually dropped on its hinges.
We replace the gearbox or the full strip when they have failed, and adjust hinges and keeps so the door closes cleanly again. We carry the common gearbox sizes, so most repairs are done in one visit.
The same goes for uPVC patio doors and other double-glazed doors: multipoint locks, handles, gearboxes and cylinders are repaired or replaced the same way.

uPVC door repair in Cardiff: common questions
My uPVC door won't lock. What is wrong?
Usually the door has dropped, so the hooks no longer line up with the frame, or the gearbox inside has worn out. Adjusting the door starts from £79; a new gearbox from £89.
The handle spins and the door will not open. Can you help?
Yes. That is a failed gearbox, one of the most common uPVC calls we get in Cardiff. We open the door and fit a new gearbox.
How do I pay?
When the job is finished. Card, cash or bank transfer, and you get a written receipt you can use for an insurance claim.
Do nights and weekends cost more?
No. The price is the same at 3am on a Sunday as it is at midday on a Tuesday, bank holidays included.
How quickly can someone get to me?
An engineer is typically with you in 15 to 20 minutes, and within 30 minutes at most. We give you a time on the phone based on where the nearest engineer is right now.
Which areas around Cardiff do you cover?
Every CF postcode on the mainland, plus nearby towns such as Caerphilly, Barry, Pontypridd, Penarth, Llantwit Major, Tonypandy. If you are not sure, call and we will tell you straight away which engineer can reach you.
Do you cover the valleys, such as Pontypridd, Merthyr Tydfil and the Rhondda, as well as Cardiff?
Yes. Our engineers work across the whole CF area, including the valleys, the Vale of Glamorgan and Bridgend.
Do you cover the seafront at Penarth and Barry Island, where sea air wears out locks?
Yes. Salt air is hard on locks and window hardware along the Penarth and Barry coastline, and our engineers replace worn cylinders and handles with BS3621 and anti-snap fittings.
