Insights into UPVC Locking and Call Centre Locksmith companies I recently went to a client who had contacted a locksmithing site off the internet and had quoted £80 per lock to change on a patio door set.Now firstly £80 per lock is more than expensive. I'd call that down right scandalous. i'd charge £70 for the two. That's a massive £90 difference.Secondly they had quoted without even seeing what the problem was in the first place. It turned out that both mechanisms were broken and needed changing. |

 I was recently called out to a lockout in Clydebank.
A gentleman was locked out of his house, but he had the key to get himself back
in. He had a UPVC door. The mechanism was of the type that locked without
turning the key.
You locked the door by lifting the handles engaging the
mechanism and deadlocking the lock. The handles could not then be depressed. To
open the door you needed the key. This disengaged the mechanism allowing the
handles to be depressed and opening the door.
On arrival I had him back into the comfort of his home
within twenty minutes. |
