Frequently Asked Questions — Wakefield
-
uPVC door not locking when wet. What's wrong?
Door drop or a worn multipoint gearbox. The hooks stop aligning with the keep, and damp Yorkshire weather makes it worse. Hinge realignment plus a gearbox swap fixes most cases.
-
How much for a uPVC repair?
£69 hinge and keep alignment. £149 to £159 for a full multipoint gearbox replacement. Quoted on inspection.
-
Can you replace just the gearbox?
Yes. The gearbox fails most often. Common patterns stocked on the van. Full-strip replacements rare unless the hooks themselves are damaged.
-
Handle has snapped. Can you fix today?
Inline and offset uPVC handles in stock. Twenty minutes once we identify the spindle and any colour match.
-
Composite doors as well as uPVC?
Yes. Same multipoint locking systems, just thicker slab. Same parts, same engineers.
-
Do I need a whole new door?
Almost never. Failures are mechanism, hinges or keep. The slab itself is fine in 95% of cases.
-
How quickly can someone come out?
Same-day for emergencies in WF1 to WF6. Booked appointments usually within 24 to 48 hours.
