We usually only stop to think about the importance of our locks when they’re not functioning as they should, or worse you end up being locked out because your lock or lock mechanism totally fails. Surprisingly, one of the most common causes of lock and lock mechanism issues is the changing weather. As temperatures fluctuate, residential and commercial door locks may fail or not work properly.
DURING THE SUMMER
As temperatures warm up in the summer, many home and business owners experience broken locks and gearboxes on wooden, uPVC and composite doors. This usually affects exterior doors, as increasing temperatures can cause the door to expand slightly. As a result, locks and handles can become difficult to turn or get stuck entirely in one position.
DURING THE WINTER
Lock problems often manifest themselves during the cold months of the year too. When temperatures fall below freezing, the door frame tends to contract. This causes a poor performance between the lock, gearbox and the door itself. You may find that it’s difficult to turn the key or opening the door using the handle when locking or unlocking exterior doors.
The best solution is to tackle these problems and nip them in the bud before they become a major issue. You could end up spending a lot more money when the door totally fails or being locked out at the most inappropriate time.
