    Fixing handles / mechanisms on two doors

    Posted 14 March

    John was very good in sorting problems with two of the doors on our property. He went to extensive measures to source the bespoke parts as quickly as possible, and completed the work in a timely manner. We're really pleased with the result! John was also very amiable, a very nice guy who knows his stuff. I enjoyed meeting him and appreciated his explanation of all that he was doing, so I could understand exactly what had gone wrong and how he'd fixed it. I would wholeheartedly recommend John, and will look forward to working with him again in the future :-)

My main aim - To make my local community feel safe in their properties.

Please call me if you have any problems with door & window locks, handles, hinges, alignment issues.

These sort of things that are 'just not working right'.

When locks and handles start sticking or handles start 'flopping', doors start dragging on the cill, or you must use force to shut or open your doors.... Take action BEFORE they jam or break on you, or you get locked out!

  • Lock upgrading and fitting - To get new locks fitted, you can choose our standard "new lock measure – fit - test" service
