I was called to a property in Chadwell St Mary near Tilbury . The inside handle was rotating and not working the mechanism . I removed the handles to find the section where the spindle goes through had broken up. The mechanism was made by GU and the older style Gu centre case in no longer available apart from some very bad copies . I ordered the new style GU mechanism which went straight on and only had to move the centre keep i also fitted a new cylinder so every componant is new.
Tonight i was called to a property in Grays where the customer wanted 3 euro cylinders changed . One on the front door and 2 on the patio doors. I removed and all 3 and the customer is happy
Today i went to a new development in Harold Wood to fit a new set of handles which had to come from Denmark. Once the handles were on the top and bottom keeps had to be moved so the door would lock smoothly . Forcing the handle up to lock the door was the cause of the outside handle coming away from the base .
This evening i was called to a property in Harold wood where the customer had a broken key in the garage door lock ,she advised me she wasnt sure if she had another key. So she asked for the cylinder to be replaced. I removed and replaced the cylinder and asked the customer to check it.
Today i was asked to attend a flat in Aveley where the owners son had tried to unlock the door then the key snapped. I opened the door and removed the broken key. I tried another keyed there was sticking which would cause the key to break. I advised the customer and they wanted the cylinder changed
I was asked to quote on changing the locks on 2 doors on a commercial property in Basildon. The doors had 2 euro cylinders on each. I quoted for 4 ABS cylinders all with the same keys and 3 extra keys. The customer agreed with the price and i returned to fit them now the customer has piece of mind that any one with a old key cannot enter the property.
- Today i was called to a new development in South ockendon where the key was stuck in the lock. After a while the key broke and i had to remove the cylinder to remove the lock. I removed the mechanism and mechanism was jammed in the locked position i secured the property with an overnight lock and took the lock away to sure a new one
I went to a property where the customer was having difficulty opening the front door .I arrived to find the top roller was not coming out the keep unless you slammed the handle down hard .I took down measurements of the lock i advised the customer of the price and he agreed to have it replaced . I returned with the new lock fitted it made a few adjustment now the customer can open the door no problems
I was asked by a customer to have a look at a composite door because the door had to be locked all the time otherwise anyone could walk in.I removed the handles to check the mechanism to see if there lock had a centre case which would allow the door to be shut and the the outside handle would not open the door. The centre case had 2 spindle holes so all it needed was new handles, i took some measurements contacted the supplier. Rang the customer gave them a price,they wanted the job done.i ordeered the handles and when they arrived i fitted them whilst i was there i advised they 
had a thumb turn cylinder fitted so the could lock the door and not run the risk of being locked out because they left the key on the inside
Today 
i was called to property in Basildon where the tennant had left a property and the customer wanted 3 locks on upvc doors changed. I changed all 3 for anti drill .anti pick .anti snap dual finish cylinders . I noticed one of the doors was not staying shut as the door had dropped i adjusted door the door so it shut properly
