Resolving Lock Malfunctions And Offering High-End Solutions For uPVC Lock Repairs
The uPVC door locks and mechanisms are made by different manufacturers from different parts of the world. However, despite the many different variants and designs of the uPVC locks and mechanism, the same essential principle is applied in their functionality. At Worcester Locksmith, we are familiar with the different variants and designs of the uPVC locks and mechanisms as well as their functional principle.
uPVC doors use a kind of lock known as a “multi-point locking mechanism” that is not unique to it alone. This multi-point locking mechanism is sometimes used on wooden composite doors. It is normal for other issues to arise when this device malfunctions in the closed and locked position. There are usually signs that notify you when the system is about to malfunction.

Here are some of the signs to tell if the lock mechanism may be beginning to fail to include:
- The handle showed signs of difficulty operating. It sometimes needs additional pressure at the end of the turn while you lift it.
- The lock is not functioning properly, becoming stiff or making a “click” sound.
- The handle becomes loose and wobbly or spins completely.
When you lock a door by pulling up the handle and you have to force it because it has become harder, check if the door lock works with the door open. If it does, then the door simply needs realigning and there is no problem with the mechanism. If the door won’t open or close, it might be either a problem with the euro cylinder or the mechanism.

It is dependent on what type of lock you want and how many locks are needed. For example, if you have two doors that need new handles and both use keys, it will usually come in at around £100-£170 per door, including adding a keyhole for each handle. If there’s one door with a deadbolt set that requires four holes drilled into the frame – including replacing cabinet hinges or replacing some existing screws in your current hardware – we’re looking at roughly £250 because more work needs to be done than just installing a simple knob.
