Locked in a room in Wixams →Wixams homes and the locks we see
Almost everything in Wixams has been built since 2007, so it's composite and uPVC doors on multipoint mechanisms throughout. On homes this young the usual fault is alignment, not wear: the house settles, the door drops a few millimetres and the lock starts to bind. Builder-fitted euro cylinders are often basic, so upgrading to anti-snap is common too.

- My Wixams new-build door has started sticking — is it the builder's problem?
- If the house is under two years old, check with the builder first. It may be covered and you won't need us. If it's older, a latch or keep adjustment runs £59 to £161.
- Are the cylinders on Wixams new builds anti-snap?
- Not always. Look for a TS007 3-star or Sold Secure Diamond mark by the keyhole. If it's missing we can swap them, at £61 per lock for labour plus £56 to £124 per cylinder.
