Specialist help with UPVC and composite doors that are stuck, jammed shut or no longer unlocking correctly around Cambridge and surrounding areas.

Why has my UPVC door jammed?

A jammed door can have several causes, so diagnosis matters. A failed centre gearbox, damaged multipoint mechanism, cylinder fault or a badly misaligned door can all produce similar symptoms.

Handle won't move

A seized mechanism or locking point under pressure can stop normal handle movement.

Key turns but door won't open

The cylinder may operate while a fault elsewhere in the locking mechanism prevents the door releasing.

Door suddenly stuck shut

A component inside the gearbox or multipoint strip may have failed while the door was locked.

Diagnose the fault before replacing parts

UPVC locking systems contain several interacting components. Identifying which part has failed helps avoid unnecessary replacement of the complete door or unrelated hardware.
