Why Choose Us?

Why is my door handle so floppy?

It's a question we hear almost every day. Most homeowners notice the signs long before the lock actually fails. Maybe you've started having to lift the handle really hard to get the key to turn, or perhaps the handle feels loose and 'floppy' when you touch it. These are classic symptoms that your multi-point locking system (MPL) is struggling. The MPL is that long strip of metal that runs down the side of your door, engaging hooks, bolts, and rollers into the frame. When the internal parts start to wear out or the door drops out of alignment, it puts massive pressure on the central gearbox. We see this all the time across Sunderland, and the good news is that it's usually a very straightforward fix if caught early.

Who We Are

Repairing your lock instead of buying a new door

Has someone told you that you need a whole new door because the lock has gone? Before you spend hundreds or even thousands of pounds, talk to us. In the vast majority of cases, we can simply replace the failed gearbox or the full mechanism strip. It's a bit like replacing the engine in a car rather than buying a new vehicle. We carry a huge range of gearboxes and multi-point parts on our van, from older brands to the latest high-security models. Our goal is always to provide a cost-effective solution that restores your door to its original strength. We also check the door's alignment—a process called 'toe-and-heeling'—to make sure it sits perfectly in the frame, preventing the problem from coming back a few months down the line.

High security upgrades for your peace of mind

While we're fixing your door mechanism, it’s a great time to look at your euro cylinder—that's the bit where you actually put your key. Many older doors are fitted with basic cylinders that are vulnerable to 'lock snapping.' We're huge advocates for upgrading to anti-snap, TS007 rated locks. These are designed specifically to stop burglars in their tracks. We're not just here to fix what's broken; we want to make your home safer than it was before the fault happened. From the hooks and bolts on your multi-point strip to the handles and hinges, we'll give your door a full health check to ensure everything is operating smoothly and securely.
