Tell us what the lock is doing
- The key will not turn: explain whether it enters fully and whether the problem started suddenly.
- The key turns but the door stays locked: say whether the handle moves or feels loose.
- The door closes but will not lock: mention any recent difficulty closing it or aligning the latch.
- A key has broken: keep the remaining piece and do not force another key into the cylinder.
- The lock is loose: describe whether the movement is in the handle, cylinder or lock body.
Repair, adjustment or replacement?
Some problems involve the fit between the door, latch and frame. Others involve a worn cylinder, damaged handle or failed lock body. The technician needs to assess the cause before confirming which parts or adjustments are appropriate.
A cylinder change may be enough when the existing lock body is sound. If the mechanism itself is damaged, a wider replacement may be necessary. Ask the technician to explain the reason and cost before approving the work.
When you are locked outside
A locked door may need opening before the mechanism can be inspected. Explain whether it shut with the keys inside, was locked using a key or stopped opening while you were using it. Non-destructive entry is assessed where possible, but a damaged or security-rated lock may require another approach.
For the correct access service, see residential door opening or commercial door opening.
What affects the repair quote?
The door material, lock type, access condition, required parts and visit time affect the price. Confirm whether attendance, opening, repair labour, replacement parts and any applicable additional charges are included. If the inspection changes the scope, agree the revised quote first.
Prepare for the visit
Share your exact location and identify the affected door. Discuss access authorisation and any landlord or building-management approval needed for alterations. If you are comparing options for a JVC property, our JVC opening, repair and lock-change guide explains how these jobs differ.
