A lock that won’t close properly leaves your home unsecure. These are the most common faults we find across Birmingham.
Misalignment & dropping
Doors and sashes drop over time, so the lock no longer lines up with the keeps.
Worn gearboxes
Gearboxes and shootbolt rods wear out until the handle lifts but the lock won’t turn.
Seized & stiff locks
Dirt, paint and lack of lubrication seize locks — especially on rarely opened windows.
Broken handles & spindles
Snapped spindles and worn handle springs stop the mechanism engaging.
Weather damage
Rain, frost and sun corrode mechanisms, degrade seals and swell timber.
Attempted break-ins
Even a failed attempt can bend locks, keeps and frames.
Stop – don’t force it
Forcing a stiff window or garage lock bends the mechanism and snaps the bolts. What starts as a quick realignment can turn into a full gearbox or lock replacement. We’ll fix the cause, not just the symptom. Call 07570 327586

Window & garage lock questions
Can my uPVC window lock be repaired, or does it need replacing?
Very often it can be repaired. Realigning the sash, adjusting the keeps or replacing a worn handle solves most problems. If the gearbox inside the multi-point lock has failed, we usually replace just the gearbox rather than the whole window.
Why won’t my window close and lock properly?
Usually the sash has dropped or the hinges have worn, so the lock can’t reach the keeps. We realign and adjust it, and replace worn hinges where needed, so it closes and locks smoothly again.
Do you repair garage door locks?
Yes — T-handle locks on up & over, roller and side-hinged garage doors, plus barrels, spring latches and handle mechanisms. If the lock is seized or the key won’t turn, we can normally free and repair it without replacing the door.
Can you fix a window that won’t lock so it’s secure for insurance?
Yes. We restore the locking so your window is secure again, and if a lock can’t be reliably repaired we’ll replace it with an insurance-approved equivalent and provide an invoice for your insurer.
How much does window or garage lock repair cost?
It depends on the fault and the parts required. We diagnose on site and give you a fixed price before starting any work, and there’s never a call-out fee.
