🚪🔑 Quick question for West Sussex homeowners (be honest 😅)
When was the last time you actually tested every door and window lock in your house?
This time of year we get loads of calls for things that started as a “small niggle”… and then suddenly the key won’t turn, the door won’t lock, or the handle drops at the worst possible moment.
Common spring issues we’re seeing right now:
✅ uPVC doors that need lifting to lock
✅ Stiff keys / locks that feel “gritty”
✅ Handles that are loose or dropping
✅ Doors that catch / scrape after winter
✅ Snapped keys in the lock (always fun… 🙃)
👇 Engagement time:
What’s your house’s most annoying door/window issue right now?
Comment (or describe it) and I’ll reply with what we can do to help.
1. Key stiff / hard to turn
2. Door needs lifting to lock
3. Handle loose or dropping
4. Door catching / not closing smoothly
5. Window won’t shut/lock properly
