Common uPVC window lock problems
Salt air and damp take their toll on window handles and locking keeps, from older frames in Plymouth's Victorian streets to seaside homes in Looe, Fowey and Cawsand.
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.
Locksmiths who know Plymouth
Salt air and wind-driven rain wear exterior locks, hinges and handles faster on the coast at Looe, Polperro, Cawsand and Newton Ferrers than they do inland.

Window lock repair in Plymouth: common questions
How much is a window lock repair in Plymouth?
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 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.
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 Plymouth do you cover?
Every PL postcode on the mainland, plus nearby towns such as Torquay, Exeter, Saltash, Ivybridge, Plympton, Plymstock. 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 you cover Cornwall as well as Plymouth, for example Saltash, Looe and Liskeard?
Yes. The PL area crosses the Tamar into east Cornwall, and our engineers cover Saltash, Torpoint, Liskeard, Looe, Fowey and Launceston as well as Plymouth.
Does the salty sea air damage door locks in villages like Cawsand and Newton Ferrers?
Salt air and damp do speed up corrosion on exterior locks, hinges and handles near the coast. Our engineers can free a stiff lock, replace a worn cylinder or fit a new BS3621 lock, with a 12-month guarantee on parts fitted.
