Why a uPVC door stops locking
Doncaster's postwar estates and newer builds are full of uPVC and composite doors, and a door that will not lock usually means a worn multipoint mechanism, handle or gearbox.
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.
Locksmiths who know Doncaster
Parts of the borough along the River Don have flooded in recent times, and a door soaked by floodwater swells, sticks and can corrode the locks fitted in it.

uPVC door repair in Doncaster: 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 Doncaster. We open the door and fit a new gearbox.
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.
Do you charge a callout fee?
No callout fee when you go ahead with the job. If you decide not to go ahead after the engineer has arrived, a £49 assessment fee covers the visit. Otherwise you pay for the job itself in Doncaster, at the price the engineer confirms with you before starting.
Do you repair composite doors too?
Yes. Composite doors use the same multipoint locks and euro cylinders, so we repair them the same way.
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 you cover Scunthorpe, Grimsby and Cleethorpes as well as Doncaster?
Yes. The same 24-hour line covers the whole DN postcode area, from Doncaster and Thorne across to Scunthorpe, Grimsby and Cleethorpes.
Can you fix the lock on a timber door that has swollen after flooding?
Often, yes. A swollen timber door may need to dry before the lock sits properly, so the engineer will look at the door first and explain whether to repair or replace the lock. The price is confirmed before any work starts.
