uPVC door repairs in South Hiendley
Many homes around South Hiendley have uPVC doors with multipoint locks. These locks can become difficult to use as parts wear or the door moves out of alignment.
Common problems include:
- Door handles that are difficult to lift.
- Keys that will not turn in the lock.
- Failed gearboxes and multipoint locks.
- Doors that have dropped or become misaligned.
- Broken door handles and worn spring cassettes.
- Doors that have jammed shut.
Rather than replacing an expensive door, I aim to find the faulty part and repair the existing locking system.
My mobile workshop carries a wide range of replacement gearboxes, multipoint locks, handles and cylinders. This allows me to complete most repairs on the first visit.

In addition to uPVC doors, I repair composite entrance doors, French doors and sliding patio doors throughout South Hiendley.
Common faults include failed locks, broken handles, worn hinges and alignment problems. I also repair doors that no longer close or lock correctly.
I have experience with locking systems from Winkhaus, GU, Maco, Millenco, ERA, Avocet, Fullex, Fuhr and Yale.
Many older locking systems can still be repaired or replaced without buying a completely new door.
