When Do You Need a Door Lock Repair?

Traditional Door Locks

The doorknob is loose – Doorknobs become loose as they age. There are various methods of tightening a loose doorknob. Our expert locksmith determines the best method to repair or replace the doorknob.

Key won’t fully turn in the lock – The lock is faulty or there is a misalignment if the key goes in but doesn’t turn. This can happen when the lock is worn or faulty. It also happens when something is blocking the keyhole.

The door won’t close – This can occur when the door trim rubber is not sitting properly, or the strike receiver was not adjusted correctly. However, there are many reasons why a door may stop closing correctly. For diagnosis, you need a professional locksmith.

The door lock is damaged – When a lock is damaged on a door, it can manifest in several different ways. If you find your door or lock is not working as it should, the only way to correctly diagnose this is to consult with a locksmith.
