Maco multipoint lock replacement in Woodlands, Doncaster

We recently attended a property in Woodlands, Doncaster, where the customer was having problems with an ageing uPVC door lock. The existing mechanism was a more-than-20-year-old Maco 2-hook, 2-roller multipoint locking system.

On inspection, we found that the hook cases had previously been removed from the original lock. This meant the door was no longer properly secure or sealing correctly against draughts. The customer had already been told that the original mechanism was no longer available—and that was correct.

Fortunately, we supplied and fitted a newer version of the Maco multipoint lock. With a few minor adjustments, the replacement fitted perfectly and restored the door to full working order.

Once fitted, the door locked smoothly, was fully secure, and sealed correctly, improving both security and weather protection.

Even when an older multipoint lock has been discontinued, a suitable updated version can often be fitted with the right knowledge and careful adjustment.
