Common questions

Useful to know before you call.

Can you repair the door as well as the lock?

Yes. Door fit, hinges, frame and lock alignment affect one another, so treating them together often gives a better result.

Will you preserve an older door?

Where it is sound and practical to do so, the aim is a neat, sympathetic repair rather than unnecessary replacement.

Can you fit a new front door?

Yes, for suitable wooden doors and openings. Share the door type, measurements or photographs when requesting a quote so Andrew can confirm the scope.
