Locksmith stories 004 - UPVC door Gearbox Replacement

---

 A customer in Walton, Middlesex KT12 contacted EPRLocksmith after their front door wouldn’t lock. The key turned but the cylinder was spinning freely, making the lock unusable. Fortunately, the door was open, which made the repair process easier.

 Once on site, we removed the lock to investigate the cause of the problem. Inside the mechanism, we found a broken internal part — the small but vital part responsible for engaging the locking system. With this part sheared off, the gearbox could no longer operate the remaining of the multi point lock system.

I replaced the damaged UPVC door gearbox on the spot using a genuine replacement part, carried in my van stock. This ensured a perfect fit, smooth operation, and hopefully, long lasting performance.

 After the replacement, the door mechanism locked and unlocked smoothly, restoring the customer’s home security immediately.
