Some DIY checks you can carry out before calling our emergency locksmiths in Findon:

Emergency Locksmiths FindonDoor locks can encounter a variety of issues within the mechanisms. Here are a few things to look out for:

Are you using the right key?

It sounds obvious, but the simplest solution could be a mix-up with your key - check all similar shaped keys before calling our emergency Findon locksmiths.

Does the lock need some lubrication?

Door locks in Findon are exposed to all sorts of environmental conditions, including the Brighton sea air. These can dry out or corrode locks without appropriate maintenance. Try applying some lubricant and if that doesn't work, give our Findon mobile emergency locksmith a call.

Is the lock frozen?

Temperatures in Findon can often drop below freezing, meaning any moisture trapped in the lock mechanisms can freeze and stick components together. You can try appling warmth in the form of warm water or a hairdryer to melt the ice. If this doesn't work, there may be a more serious jam that needs proper locksmith investigation.

Is the key getting caught?

New keys in particular can have rough spots from the key cutting process or from everyday wear and tear. Try examining the key for anything untoward and if that fails, try drawing on the key with a graphite pencil before inserting in the lock. This will help 'dry-lube' the parts touching the key.

Is the door latch catching badly?

If your door doesn't make a satisfying 'click' when pushed closed, or requires excessive effort to shut securely, the latch and the strike plate could be out of alignment. Skilled DIYers may be able to adjust the latch plate on the door frame to allow the latch to sit better. Look for scrape marks on the latch plate which indicate where the two parts regularly make contact. You may find these marks are too close to, or overlapping, the edge of the latch plate.

Sometimes the hinges can be adjusted to improve door alignment, but if you don't fancy fiddling with the door, give us a call at Kevin the Locksmith, Findon.
