Why a uPVC door stops locking
Replacement uPVC doors in Lincoln's interwar semis and in village homes at Cherry Willingham or Skellingthorpe can sag, catch on the frame or stop locking cleanly. Our engineers carry common uPVC parts, so many repairs are finished 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 Lincoln: 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 Lincoln. We open the door and fit a new gearbox.
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 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 Lincoln, at the price the engineer confirms with you before starting.
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 the villages and market towns around Lincoln, such as Market Rasen and Horncastle?
Yes. The 24/7 line covers Lincoln and the wider LN area, including Saxilby, Nettleham, Market Rasen, Horncastle, Louth and Mablethorpe. Journeys to the Wolds and the coast can be longer, so we confirm the arrival time for your address when you call.
Can you fit a lock to an old door on Steep Hill or in the cathedral quarter?
Yes. The engineer checks the age and thickness of the door and suggests a lock to suit it, usually a BS3621 mortice lock for an external timber door.
