Why Won’t My UPVC Door Close Properly?
Many homeowners face the issue of a UPVC door that no longer closes or locks as it should. This is not only inconvenient but also unsafe, as a weakened lock can make a break-in easier.
🔎 Main Causes
Door misalignment – over time, hinges wear down, causing the door to “drop” and preventing the lock from working correctly.
Lock mechanism wear – multi-point locks often break due to overuse or incorrect handling.
Cylinder issues – if the key doesn’t turn when lifting the handle, the cylinder may be damaged or blocked.
Lack of adjustment – seasonal temperature changes can affect the door frame, requiring realignment.
