When should I replace the mechanisms on my UPVC door locks?
Most UPVC door locks are made up of exceptionally stable and high quality mechanisms, but even they will give you some trouble after a while. If you have to jiggle your key every time you operate the door, or are having troubles getting it open even after maintenance, then you may need to change your lock. It is also a good idea to do so if you have lost any keys for the lock in the past, or have recently moved into a new home.

Why is the door lock stuck?
If you can insert the key inside fully, but you cannot turn it, the problem has to do with lack of proper lubrication. Our professionals in Woodford recommend that you clean the device before providing lubrication. Then you need to apply graphite lubricant directly into the keyhole and spread a little bit of it on the face of the cylinder.
