Common uPVC window lock problems
Replacement uPVC windows in Dartford, Erith and Gravesend lose their handles and locking points over time, and older timber casements in Victorian terraces have catches of their own that wear.
A handle that turns but does not lock, a handle that has snapped, or a window that will not close tight. Most of these come from a worn handle or a failed espagnolette, the locking bar inside the frame.
We replace handles with locking handles where you want them, so windows can be locked with a key, and fix or replace the mechanism behind them. Patio and French door locks are part of the same job.

Window lock repair in Dartford: common questions
How much is a window lock repair in Dartford?
From £69 for a uPVC window handle or lock. If the locking mechanism inside the frame has failed, the engineer tells you the price for that before doing it.
Can you fit locking window handles?
Yes. We fit keyed locking handles to uPVC windows, often asked for by insurers and by parents of young children.
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.
Which areas around Dartford do you cover?
Every DA postcode on the mainland, plus nearby towns such as Gravesend, Rochester, Bexleyheath, Swanley, Greenhithe, Erith. If you are not sure, call and we will tell you straight away which engineer can reach you.
My window will not close properly. Can you fix it?
Usually, yes. It is often the hinges or the keeps that need adjusting, which is quicker and cheaper than replacing parts.
Do nights and weekends cost more?
No. The price is the same at 3am on a Sunday as it is at midday on a Tuesday, bank holidays included.
Do you cover Gravesend, Sidcup and Bexleyheath as well as Dartford?
Yes. The same 24-hour line covers the whole DA postcode area, including Erith, Welling, Greenhithe, Swanscombe, Longfield and the Darent Valley villages, and we also attend nearby Rochester and Swanley.
Can you fix a composite door that will not lock without replacing it?
In many cases, yes. A door that will not lock is most often down to a worn handle, gearbox or multipoint mechanism rather than the door itself, and our engineers carry common uPVC parts. If the door has dropped on its hinges, the engineer will explain what is needed and confirm the price before starting.
