Locksmith Services & Lock Repairs Birchwood

Lock repairs and replacements carried out in Birchwood.

We Fit For You deliver expert locksmith services across Birchwood, covering all types of locks including uPVC, timber and aluminium doors. Most modern uPVC doors are fitted with multi-point locking systems, but seasonal expansion and contraction often causes them to jam. Where possible, we repair by toe and heeling; if replacement is required, this will usually involve either the euro-cylinder or the full multi-point mechanism.

uPVC window locks

Espagnolette locking systems use a gearbox that can wear over time. This is one of the most common failures our locksmiths encounter. We carry standard gearbox types in stock, enabling same-day repairs in most cases. Where non-standard parts are needed, we order them and aim to return later the same day.

Friction stays & safety

Friction stays are essential to hold windows open safely. When they fail, windows may jam shut or become unsafe to use. This poses a fire safety hazard in bedrooms. We carry the most common friction stays, allowing us to resolve these faults immediately.

Handle repairs

We supply and fit a wide range of handles including cockspur, inline and cranked espagnolette. With or without key-locking functions, our locksmiths stock the most popular versions and can replace faulty handles on our first visit in most cases.

Wooden door locks

Cylinder rim (Yale) locks are easily replaced or repaired. Where keys are lost, we often change only the cylinder to save money, but where the case is damaged, we’ll replace the full unit. Mortice locks are also common; insurance companies specify BS 3621-approved five-lever locks, which we strongly recommend when carrying out replacements.

Aluminium & garage doors

Aluminium doors can use euro-cylinder, multi-point or mortice locks, sometimes in combination. We also fit secure garage door locks and window locks as part of our comprehensive locksmith service.
