You might think that replacing a garage door lock is something you can easily do for yourself. You probably could do it, but it's not straightforward.
To do it you have to know your door's make and the model and size of your door lock in order to buy the right replacement. If there is a spindle, you need to know the spindle's shape, and you need to order the right length, or you will have to cut the new one to size. You need to know the distance between the fixing centres and the spigot length of your lock. If the key doesn't work and the door is locked shut, you have a whole new set of problems.
Why not save yourself the time and hassle? We change locks every day of the week, and we can replace your garage door lock quickly and professionally at a competitive price. We won't even charge for the callout.

Your Garage Door as a Way Into Your Home
It makes sense to take the security of your garage door seriously. Burglars often target garage doors, not only for the garage's contents but also as a means of gaining entry to your house. Thieves are very savvy about the opportunities presented by old garage doors with dents or ones that don't fit the door frame properly.
If you have a connecting door from the house to the garage, this is a weak spot in your security because these doors often don't have the most secure locks. Once they gain entry to the garage, burglars have a place where they can work on the connecting door unobserved.
Our Inspection & Maintenance Service
As part of our service, we can also do an inspection and maintenance visit. If your garage door is more than ten years old, it is time to make sure it is still fit for purpose. Common problems we encounter include:
- Rollers which need lubrication or replacement
- Loose fitments and damage to cables or pulleys
- Springs that are too worn to work properly
- Auto-reverse or auto-stop facility not working correctly
- Motor burned out on automatic systems
- Faulty remote controls
- Window panes in the garage door that need replacement
Making Your Garage More Secure
We are always pleased to advise on enhancing your garage door's protection and increasing the security of connecting doors to your home. Thieves have several ways of opening your garage door, including drilling or cutting out the lock and using a crowbar on the top or sides of the door to gain access to the locking mechanism.
We can fit extra security for your garage door such as door bolts, adding a bar and base plate, or installing alarm sensors on the door or inside the garage. We can also fit CCTV cameras or IP cameras as stand-alone security items or as part of a smart home security package.
Please contact us and let us know how we can help. Whether it is a regular service for your garage door, a replacement lock, enhanced security or a completely new door, we are always available 24/7 for a free quote and callout.
