A Saturday teatime emergency call took us to Tickhill, Doncaster, where a customer’s door would no longer close after the GU multipoint locking mechanism failed.
Another Doncaster locksmith had recommended the customer to us. We attended within 30 minutes, despite the wet Saturday afternoon.
Failed 20-year-old GU multipoint lock
On inspection, we found that the original GU 35 mm two-hook, two-roller multipoint locking mechanism had failed after approximately 20 years of use.
Rather than replacing just the centre gearbox, we fitted a complete new GU locking mechanism from top to bottom.
We also realigned the door and adjusted the frame keeps. This ensured the door closed smoothly and all the locking points engaged correctly.
The door was soon working perfectly again, leaving the customer’s property secure.

Came out VERY quickly on a rainy Saturday afternoon. Did a quick, clean and professional job. Genuinely a local tradesman. Highly recommended.
