Title: UPVc Door jammed shut
Post by JohnD on Nov 25^th, 2013, 12:17pm

My son has just bought a house previously used for a whole series of short term lets.

There are two UPVC half front doors - i.e there are two doors, each with a lock. He has changed both cylinders. The right hand side - the most used, and first to open - works perfectly. On the other the key only moves part way, and doesn't unlock - just as it did with the old cylinder. Any ideas?

Thanks

John D

All sorted - misaligned and wear in the lock.
