Why a uPVC door stops locking

Modern estates in Monifieth, Carnoustie and across the city have uPVC and composite doors, and a door that will not lock often traces back to a worn handle or multipoint mechanism.

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 Dundee: 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 Dundee. 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.

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.

How does pricing work?

Tell us the door, the lock and what has happened, and we give you a free quote on the phone. When the engineer arrives, they check the lock and confirm the final price with you before starting any work. Nothing is done without your agreement. A £49 assessment fee applies only if you cancel after the engineer has arrived.

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 Dundee, at the price the engineer confirms with you before starting.

Do you cover Broughty Ferry, Carnoustie and Arbroath as well as the city centre?

Yes. The same 24-hour line covers the whole DD postcode area, including Monifieth, Newport-on-Tay, Tayport, Forfar, Brechin and Montrose.

Can you open a tenement flat door on a shared stair?

Yes. A shared street door or entry system normally belongs to the owners or the factor, but your own flat door is something we can deal with.
