Locksmith Edinburgh: UPVC door and window specialists

The main causes of faulty UPVC door and window locks are wear and tear and lack of proper maintenance.  Certain lock components can suffer due to problems relating to poor alignment and lack off lubrication. This can cause broken metal fragments to jam the lock and ultimately lock the householder in or out of their property. Once doors require additional effort to lock correctly, an urgent repair should be a priority.

It is much cheaper to merely service your UPVC lock rather than be forced to replace it.  This is why it is important to contact a skilled locksmith to maintain your locks and get your door readjusted properly.
