Why a uPVC door stops locking
Many homes in Bretton, Orton and Werrington now have uPVC or composite front doors, and one that will not lock usually points to the multipoint mechanism, the handle or the gearbox. Our engineers carry common uPVC parts, so many faults can be fixed during the 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 Peterborough: 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 Peterborough. We open the door and fit a new gearbox.
Which areas around Peterborough do you cover?
Every PE postcode on the mainland, plus nearby towns such as Ely, Stamford, Huntingdon, Wisbech, Whittlesey, Yaxley. If you are not sure, call and we will tell you straight away which engineer can reach you.
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 repair composite doors too?
Yes. Composite doors use the same multipoint locks and euro cylinders, so we repair them the same way.
Can you replace the lock on a Victorian terrace in Millfield without changing the whole door?
In most cases the new lock can be fitted to the existing door. The engineer will look at the door on arrival, explain the options and confirm the price before starting.
Is there a callout fee if I live in a village out in the Fens?
No. Callouts carry no fee anywhere in the PE area, and the quote is free on the phone. Tell us the village and the nearest street and we will say how soon an engineer can reach you.
