Why a uPVC door stops locking
Replacement uPVC and composite doors are fitted to many of the family homes in Camborne, Redruth and Hayle, and the handles, hinges and multipoint locks on them wear with daily use.
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 Truro: 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 Truro. We open the door and fit a new gearbox.
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 Truro, 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.
Which areas around Truro do you cover?
Every TR postcode on the mainland, plus nearby towns such as Falmouth, Redruth, St Austell, Penryn, Newquay, Camborne. If you are not sure, call and we will tell you straight away which engineer can reach you.
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 Falmouth, Newquay, Penzance and St Ives as well as Truro?
Yes. The same 24-hour line covers the whole TR postcode area, including Redruth, Camborne, Helston, Hayle, Perranporth, St Agnes and the Lizard peninsula.
Can an old cottage door be fitted with a modern BS3621 lock?
Usually, if the door and frame are sound. The engineer looks at the door, says which lock suits it and confirms the price before any work begins.
