City Locksmiths Gwent Ltd attended an emergency lock failure in Newport today after the customer called us on 07595 431870.
This customer couldn’t unlock their front composite door as the key kept “Spinning”! This is quite a common event when the locking system fails on this type of multipoint gearbox. It’s known as a ” Levered” gearbox, rather than a cylinder gearbox.
I completed a full upgrade to a cylinder type operation including a multipoint gearbox, sprung handles & a TS007 1 star snapsafe cylinder. The TS007 lock is a British Security Standard for euro cylinder locks which is designed to prevent lock snapping, drilling, and picking, making it exceedingly difficult to break-in. It is ideal for your uPVC or composite front door.
Nick from City Locksmiths is a professional local locksmith in Newport and is a specialist at uPVC door repairs. If you are stuck with a door that won’t open or won’t lock, call City Locksmiths Gwent Ltd.
