The Locksmith in Norwich

The Locksmith Norwich

Locksmith Norwich are often found driving from job to job, not all of the locksmith Norwich jobs are quick. Sometimes if a job is problematic or the locksmith Norwich does not have a direct replacement for the lock he needs to change, there may be a lot more work involved therefore taking longer to complete the job. Lets say on an average day the locksmith Norwich attends eight jobs, other parts of the country the locksmith Norwich would be able to attend a lot more jobs due to the population density, unfortunately there is often a lot of distance between jobs and lets face it Norfolk is a very rural area and depending on the time of year you are highly likely to get stuck behind a long stream of traffic being held up by a tractor or other agricultral machinery. It's important to remember in these circumstances that the farmer is trying to make a living as well as the locksmith Norwich so you have to show a bit of patience. Anway back to the Locksmith Norwich who is working on his eigth job of the day, it is a multi point locking system fitted to a UPVC door and the gearbox has broken. Normally the locksmith Norwich would take fifteen minutes replacing the gearbox and tidying up after himself but in this case as happened to me about a week ago it had a forty millimetere backset and had been discontinued. In this instance this locksmith Norwich installed an overnight lock which is a cut down version of the full lock which would stay on the door until the replacement lock turns up. Although the locksmith Norwich couldn't get a direct replacement the manufacture still produced a replacement unit which meant a slight adjustment to the door frame so locksmith Norwich can get the lock working with all of the auxillary locking parts which are not included in the overnight lock.

An earlry lock made by a locksmith in Wymondham would usually comprise of one lever and would be heavily warded to prevent the lock being picked.

Such as alawys using a dust sheet when fitting locks. There is nothing worse than wood shavings stuck in the pile of your carpet. We also carry a Vacuum cleaner on each of our vans to pick up the bits the dust sheet doesn't catch. The door is checked for pencil marks which may have been put on the door during the fitting process, these are then cleaned off, so the door looks as it did when we turned up. Apart from the new lock of course. Another thing we do is remove all of the protective coating placed on the escutcheon covers and face plate of the lock, this doesn't take long to do but you would be surprised how often I work on a lock that was fitted years ago and the plastic cover is still on the lock. Unfortunately when you peel it off after years of being left on there it looks awful.

Now lets take a look at the free extras we offer when our locksmith in Kings Lynn works on a UPVC door. If it is a straght European cylinder change or a gear box change or even the full mechanism that needs fitting we still do more than other locksmith in Kings Lynn. The main reason why the locking mechanism breaks is because of poor door alignment. When the door falls out of alignment, usually due to settlement on new builds and wear and tear on hinges on older properties, the gearbox of the lock often ends up lifting the weight of the entire door or pulling the door into the frame so it can lock properly. The geabox has lots of small teeth inside which are not designed to operate with that amount of load on them so eventually the teeth break leaving you with a door that either doesn't lock or doesn't open. Other locksmith in Kings Lynn will replace the lock but not address the alignment issue, whether this due to not having the experience to solve the problem or is it because they know in it will go wrong again in the future and then they get the repeat work. You can be sure that our locksmith in Kings Lynn will deal with the alignment issue, clean the door of all finger marks, check and adjust the hinges and possibly heel and toe the door if required. We are locksmith in Kings Lynn who take pride in doing the job properly.
