Expert uPVC Repairs in Sheffield
The problems that damage your doors can be hard to understand without professional support; we make sure you get just that. After all, we have been in the industry for over three decades!
We know what we are doing when it comes to fixing UPVC doors in Sheffield. We offer a comprehensive range of services to make sure you get a long-lasting solution to whatever the issue is, including:
A thorough inspection
For uPVC doors, there is no one-size-fits-all answer to the problems you might be dealing with. Doors can fail for a whole range of reasons, and it is our job to find out what the reason is and then get to work on fixing the problem. From door misalignment to wear-and-tear to the locking mechanisms, we will find whatever the cause of your worries is and resolve the issue ASAP.
Lock repairs and replacements
If the locks on your uPVC doors begin to fail, then you need someone who can restore them to full functionality. We offer standard maintenance and repairs for any locks on your uPVC doors, as well as full fitting of new lock types. From jammed locks to locks that have a key snapped within, we can find a solution that gets your locks working with 100% efficiency again.
uPVC handle and lever repairs
It is common for handles and levers to start failing on uPVC doors, especially after many years of usage. These mechanical parts can only be used so many times before they begin to degrade; we find out what part(s) have failed and then get to work on replacing them with superior alternatives.
Realigning and sealing uPVC doors
Especially with newer buildings in Sheffield, doors can become misaligned as the soil shifts and the building moves. That can cause doors to warp or fail to close over as they are slightly misaligned. We find the cause of the alignment issue and fix it, as well as re-seal your doors for fairer energy usage.
Rekeying and security upgrades
If you have found that your uPVC door keys have snapped or have been lost and cannot be found, we can carry out a rekeying service. This includes creating new keys and installing new locks that are specific to your keys; therefore, it is much harder for your keys to be duplicated whilst adding vital anti-snap protections.
24/7 Emergency support
Sadly, we cannot choose when our doors fail us – yet you are never left waiting until the morning with Lock & Key. We operate day and night, so call us at any time you find problems with your doors. With accredited local locksmiths in Sheffield ready to come and visit your premises, we can be there within an hour to carry out analysis and repairs as soon as required.

Understanding uPVC Doors and Locks
Of course, the main challenge with your uPVC doors and locks is that they need to be extremely durable. They are, after all, the door that leads into the rest of your home. If criminals can break through your uPVC doors, they are likely straight into your home. Therefore, you need to know that your uPVC doors have the durability and security standards needed to reduce such risks entirely.
We make sure that you have uPVC doors that are capable of meeting British Standards in terms of their locking methods and security systems. Over time, doors can begin to wear out thanks to their repeated usage; we are here to make sure that your doors do not become a weak point or a liability in terms of keeping your property free from unwanted guests.
Why Do You Need uPVC Door Repairs?
For one, uPVC doors are some of the most modern door types in the UK. As such, they not only fit modern styles and sensibilities but tend to have more robust security methods such as more advanced, high-security locks. When looked after, uPVC doors offer great energy efficiency and can make it much more challenging for someone to break into your home.
However, UPVC doors are not invincible. They are still made from materials that can, over time, begin to wear out. The most typical issues with uPVC doors include issues such as:
Common uPVC Door and Lock Problems:
Wear and tear
The most common cause of damage to your uPVC doors is that they have worn out. This is common in uPVC doors fitted years ago or in uPVC doors that are used more frequently than intended. Parts can soon wear out, especially when it comes to your latches and hinges.
Wear from weather conditions
It is also common for a uPVC door to suffer from damage due to weather changes. As doors continue to expand and contract, they can begin to swell and shrink repeatedly, leading to operational issues such as locks being out of line or the door no longer being aligned as required.
Damaged parts
Parts in your doors can wear out over time, too – that is most commonly seen in parts of the door like your locks and hinges, but your door seals can begin to wear out, meaning more drafts than before.
Whatever the time, day or night, if you have a problem with your locks, we can help. We operate a 24/7 service across the Sheffield and surrounding area, providing locksmithing solutions to both domestic and commercial customers.
