EURO CYLINDERS

A UPVC door repair doesn’t always mean the euro cylinder needs to be replaced. At Pick Me Locksmith Ltd we are able to open UPVC doors non-destructively. If your UPVC door won’t open this doesn’t necessarily mean you will need new keys.

A common euro cylinder fault is a slipped cam. This happens when someone attempts to use a key in a lock that already has one on the inside. This isn’t actually a UPVC door repair as the fault is with the cylinder. The usual sign that you have a slipped cam is the inability to remove the key when the lock is operated.

MULTI POINT LOCKS

UPVC door repairs is one of our most used services. When the multi point lock fails it really leaves our customers stuck. One of the most common parts to fail are the spindle follower, this transfers the movement of your handle through the gearbox and positions the locking points into their respective keeps. It also sets the gearbox for locking so you are able to turn the key in your cylinder, and when the follower breaks down you wont be able to lock or open your door.

Faults often start with the door being tricky to use then get progressively worse until they fail, and another common fault is when there is wear to the part of the gearbox that operates the deadbolt, or hook bolt depending on what type of gearbox you have. When this happens the key is either able to be turned continuously or it will be completely jammed, Pick Me Locksmith are able to get it open without damage and replace with the right part for your door.
