Our team was called out to a property in Hackney where the customer was unable to fully secure their door. The door was fitted with two ERA locks — a mortice deadlock at the top and a rim deadlatch below — but both had become difficult to operate due to wear and misalignment. Our locksmith carefully inspected the locks and discovered that the deadlock bolt wasn’t engaging properly with the strike plate, while the night latch was sticking on closure. We removed both locks, cleaned the internal mechanisms, lubricated the moving parts, and refitted them to ensure perfect alignment. Once tested, the keys turned smoothly and the door locked securely with no resistance.
