There are several reasons your uPVC or composite door may be stuck closed:
Jammed doors opened (non-destructive where possible)
We use specialist tools and methods to open stuck uPVC and composite doors safely, aiming to avoid damage. Once the door is open, we diagnose the exact fault.
Multipoint lock and gearbox repairs
If the locking strip or gearbox has failed, we repair or replace the failed components and test every locking point so the door locks reliably again.
Handle repairs and replacements
Floppy, stiff, or spinning handles are often part of the problem. We repair or replace door handles and related parts so the handle operates the mechanism correctly.
Door realignment
If the door has dropped, it can put pressure on the locking strip and cause jamming. We realign the door, adjust hinges and keeps, and ensure smooth closing and locking.
Security upgrades (optional)
If the lock has failed or you’ve had a security scare, we can upgrade to stronger, higher-security cylinders and hardware to improve protection.
Often, yes. The aim is to open it safely, then fix what failed so it doesn’t happen again.
Common causes include a failed gearbox, a jammed multipoint mechanism, or a handle/spindle issue.
Usually not. In many cases, repairing the mechanism or realigning the door solves it.
