Frequently Asked Questions — Southeast London
-
Why won't my uPVC door lock anymore?
Usually a worn-out multipoint gearbox or a door that's dropped on its hinges so the lock points miss the keeps. Both common, both quick fixes.
-
How much for a uPVC repair across SE?
Realignment with no parts £69. Multipoint replacement £109 to £149. Handle pair £69. Cylinder swap to anti-snap £89 to £119.
-
Are SE conversion uPVC doors any different?
Slightly. Many SE flat conversions had cheap original 1990s uPVC fitted. Brands like Avocet, Yale, Mila are common. We carry replacement gearboxes for all major patterns.
-
How long does it take?
Multipoint replacement 45 to 75 minutes. Hinge realignment 20 minutes. Most jobs are single-visit.
-
Cheaper to replace the door entirely?
Almost never. Composite replacement starts £900. Repairs come in under £160. Replace only when the slab is cracked or warped beyond saving.
-
Will my keys still work?
Yes when only the gearbox is replaced. Three new keys come with any cylinder swap.
-
Do you fix communal flat front doors?
Yes. Many SE blocks have heavy mag-lock or multipoint communal doors. We service both, including replacement keypads and entry handles.

uPVC patio door wouldn't lock on our Greenwich conversion. Gearbox jammed solid. Replaced with a Yale-pattern multipoint, £139, smooth as anything now.

Old mortice on our Georgian conversion in SE10 had completely seized. Engineer drilled it cleanly without touching the panelled door, fitted a matching brass-finish replacement. £169.
