Compare door lock repair by the actual fault
Describe whether the key sticks, turns without locking, or the door will not latch. Ask for an assessment before agreeing to a cylinder or complete-lock replacement.
| Compare | Ask each provider to confirm in writing |
|---|---|
| Fault assessment | Does the visit check the lock, latch and door alignment? Ask what the diagnosis shows rather than assuming every fault needs a new lock. |
| Repair or replacement | Is the quote for adjustment, repair, a cylinder, handles or the full mechanism? Obtain approval before the repair scope changes. |
| Named parts | Which compatible part is supplied, with what keys and finish? Separate labour from the replacement component and confirm warranty terms. |
| Visit and timing fees | Are callout, diagnosis and out-of-hours charges included? What is payable if you decline the recommended repair after inspection? |
| Access and permission | What proof of authorised access and building-entry arrangements are needed? Confirm these before the visit. |
| Final check | Will the repaired door open, close, latch and lock as agreed? Confirm key handover, cleanup and how a repeat fault is handled. |
