Why a uPVC door stops locking
Many of the semis in Sketty, Killay and West Cross now have uPVC or composite front doors, and one that will not lock usually comes down to the multipoint mechanism, the handle or the 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.

uPVC door repair in Swansea: 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 Swansea. We open the door and fit a new gearbox.
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 Swansea, 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.
Do you cover Gower, Mumbles and the towns beyond Swansea?
Yes. The same 24-hour line covers the whole SA postcode area, from Mumbles and Gower to Neath, Port Talbot, Llanelli and Carmarthen, and on to Tenby, Haverfordwest, Cardigan and Aberaeron.
Can sea air really seize a lock near the seafront?
It can. Salt in the air corrodes cylinders, handles and hinges over time, so a lock near the shore may stiffen or stick sooner than one inland. An engineer can free off or replace the affected parts and check the rest of the door while there.
