There is usually no way to tell definitively without inspecting the broken lock itself.

A lock fix may be possible if the lock is not too old, corroded or damaged. If a customer requests specifically to ‘fix my locks’, Owen will make every effort to perform the repair.

It’s usually recommended to change locks as soon as possible after buying a new property in Chichester, as you can’t always be sure who has had keys or what copies have been made.

If you are renting the property, you will need to speak to your landlord to find out who also has access.

🚪🔑 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
