A customer in Ealing, W5 contacted Fix My Locks after experiencing problems with the lock on their side gate. The existing lock and keys had become worn over time, making the gate increasingly difficult to open reliably.

Replacing a Worn Side Gate Lock

Rather than leaving the customer struggling with an unreliable lock, we replaced the existing side gate lock and supplied a fresh set of new keys. The customer now has smooth, dependable access through the side entrance without having to struggle with old, worn keys.

When Should a Gate Lock Be Replaced?

Locks used on gates and external entrances can see a lot of regular use and exposure to the weather. If a key becomes difficult to turn, the lock regularly sticks, or old keys have become badly worn, it is worth having the lock checked before it reaches the point where access becomes impossible.

Replacing a troublesome lock can also be useful when you want a completely new set of keys, particularly if you are unsure how many copies of the old keys may still be in circulation.
