Why it breaks: what our engineers find in Tongwell
Forced entry damage
Attempted break-ins often snap cheap cylinders or bend locks, which then need replacing with a stronger standard.
Worn cylinder pins
Years of use wear the pins inside a cylinder, so keys start to stick, turn only part-way or snap off in the lock.
Swollen timber doors
Wooden doors swell in damp weather, putting strain on mortice locks and latches until the bolt won't throw.
