Lock Repair FAQ
Can a lock be repaired instead of replaced?
Often, yes. If a lock can be repaired safely we’ll repair it rather than replace it, which usually saves you money. If replacement is the better option, we’ll explain why.
Why is my key hard to turn?
Usually dirt, wear or a door that has dropped out of alignment. We’ll diagnose the cause and fix it — often with an adjustment rather than a new lock.
Can you remove a broken key from a lock?
Yes. We extract broken keys and, if the lock is undamaged, it can be used again with a new key.
Do you charge a call-out fee?
No. We don’t charge a call-out fee — you only pay for the work carried out, and we agree the price with you before we start.
