uPVC Door & Window Lock Specialist in Poole
uPVC doors and windows are the most common security features in Dorset homes, but they are also the most prone to failure. Whether it’s the coastal salt air in Hamworthy causing corrosion or the summer heat in Poole causing the door frame to expand and misalign, a jammed uPVC lock is a high-stress emergency.
As a specialist with over 26 years of experience, I don’t just “replace” locks; I diagnose why they failed. I carry a massive range of gearboxes, multi-point locking mechanisms (MPLs), and euro cylinders on my van to ensure a first-time fix for 95% of my customers.
“With over 26 years of dedicated experience, Kevin at Elite Locksmiths Ltd (Company No: 15641348) is the trusted name for security in Poole. Based at 31 Tabitha Close in Hamworthy, we are a genuine local business—not a national call center. We provide an expert emergency response across BH12, BH13, BH14, and BH15, specializing in non-destructive entry and uPVC door repairs.”
Common uPVC Problems We Solve
Misaligned Doors: If you have to “lift” the handle to lock the door, your hinges are out of alignment. We realign the door to prevent the mechanism from snapping.
Snapped Key in Cylinder: We provide non-destructive entry to remove broken keys and replace the cylinder if necessary.
Failed Gearboxes: If the handle flops down or won’t move, the internal gearbox has likely shattered. We stock parts for Yale, Gu, Era, Mila, and more.
Security Upgrades: We replace standard cylinders with 3-Star Anti-Snap locks to protect your home against “lock snapping”—a common burglary method.
