Door Lock Replacement & Repairs
Exitoso & Co are the experts in window and door repairs Sydney. We will tend to all of your door lock repair & replacements.
When you have a problem with a door lock, it can be frustrating. If it is for an external door, it can also be a serious concern, as your home is more vulnerable to unauthorised entry if your locks are damaged. In fact, one of the most common causes of door lock damage is attempted burglary. Sometimes the attempt is successful. In this case the lock is completely compromised, and other times the attempt fails but still results in damage to the lock.
If your home has been subjected to a burglary attempt where the lock was attacked, you should not trust that lock anymore and should get the door lock repaired as soon as possible. You should do that even if the burglar did not gain entry to your home. Door handle repairs are important, too. When they begin to have problems, if those problems are not attended to promptly, they’ll get worse. Eventually, the door handle can fail to operate at all. In some situations that could be dangerous, so it is something you should treat as a serious problem needing attention as soon as possible.

Door Lock Repair
Door lock repairs are also made necessary when inferior components are used to manufacture the door lock. Reputable manufacturers such as Assa Abloy and Lockwood can be relied on to use quality components in their products. Manufacturers that try to cut costs will use lower-quality materials and that can cause the products to fail more quickly. We recommend replacing inferior quality locks if your builder has installed them because they are not safe for your family. Bad locks cannot be relied on.

Under Lock and Key: Door Lock Repair From The Experts
When it comes to your door (or window) locks, there are unfortunately a lot of issues that could leave you suddenly searching for someone to carry out a door lock replacement or repair. These could include:
- A jammed lock
- Sticky mechanism
- Faulty cylinder
- Something stopping the key from turning
- The key turns but does not release the lock
- Inability to engage lock
- A key has snapped inside the lock
- Broken handle
- Unidentified break
The most frequent problems occur in UPVC windows and doors. However, they can happen to just about any glass or sliding door. The difference between other services and Exitoso is that we will search for the cause of your issue. We will always make sure that you have a reliable repair and the information to prevent a repeat occurrence.
Common Causes of Door Lock Damage
Some of the most common causes we see are:
- An attempted break-in has left your window/door strikes misaligned. Unfortunately, the perpetrator doesn’t need to have successfully gained entry to cause your property damage! It’s important to fix these problems quickly as they may leave you vulnerable to repeat attacks.
- Incorrect initial installation/adjustment requires the original fitter to make a mistake, sometimes the frame has shifted slightly. Either way, if your window or door isn’t in the correct position you will need a professional adjustment. This will help to prevent any further issues.
- Mechanical failure: If the locking mechanism, cylinder, or hardware has worn or broken, this may be a simple aging of the part or it could be an operator error. Faulty parts will have to be replaced and we can advise you on how to protect your new mechanism.
- Poor quality original lockIt’s unfortunate but true, you get what you pay for. Our expert can make sure your new lock is up to the task
- Something is physically blocking the lock. Whether this is the cause of the misadventure of a toddler or sheer misfortune, sometimes items or debris end up inside locks causing them to jam. This is often an easy repair, rather than a replacement.
- The handle has been forced whilst in the ‘lock’ position is extremely common in UPVC doors and windows. The mechanisms for the locks on windows and doors can be extremely delicate, particularly those that have the dual feature of opening two ways. If the handle has been forced into position, this can break the lock and a replacement will be required.
