According to the lads at the locksmith Plaistow it was an oldish door, they spotted 2 hooks and deadbolt tapped the hooks down it did not budge then realised it must have shootbolts as well, I got the door open enough to rest deadbolt on the strike plate still no joy.

The customer then said they were waiting for a new composite door and not worth spending more money on the door and just leave it locked but could I get her in another way I did not want to damage cylinders or handles if they needed gearbox ie snapping out and bent screwdriver into gearbox.

If there was another entry I would have deglazed door air bagged it and forced top bolt out then lifted bottom out but it was not to be, I got lucky getting them in by banging a small transom with cockspur handle enough to open ( customer wanted to break glass unit) then got one arm in to remove gasket from inside then deglaze from outside.

It was too cold to attempt to force old beading off it would have been to brittle so the son climbed in and opened up through conservatory but if it was only that door what else non destructive could you do?

Had a similar job where the handle to UPVC door was rotating 360 and lock doing nothing. There was no way through the back and no suitable windows to go through, the letting agency handyman was on site saying no way in, even he looked at removing lower panel (ie kicking it in ).

So locksmith Plaistow used spreaders and bags and after several attempts and time managed to get the door to pop open, big relief to all round. Like you wanted the non destructive route. Persistence was the name of the game this time.

Mila gearboxes usually have symptom of handles sinning 360 degrees. And Locksmaster, Milenco and Safeware.

Needed a 40mm old style GU for a composite door over xmas. Never even seen a 40mm gearbox and ended up replacing with a 35 and moving the handles and lock over which I just about got away with using a wider handle set.

The customer needs this fixed today - New Year's Eve and all that. I can't get a replacement for two weeks or so. I've thought of epoxy resin, but I don't know if it will hold. Duck tape, but that might make the fit into the door too tight.

You won't be able to fix it with Duct tape! Just leave it off put the gearbox and other working hook back in the door until you get parts.

Explain to your customer that suppliers are closed and this is the best you can do. Sometimes people need to be patient and wait for parts.

Tell him to wait. Or go and buy one as today is a normal working day. Failing that re fit without hook gearbox as temp. Either way he is not getting it done today.

Locksmith Plaistow always remove as many hooks as possible off mechanism and keep them as replacements rather than throwing all the old mechanism away, you never know when they come in handy.
