Many thanks for posting this … very useful and a big thumbs up from me! 👍 I had the same problem and took the gearbox apart to find at least two broken internal parts! I ordered a replacement and refitted back together … success! Thanks again 🙏
Hey where did you order the part from?
Hi. From my local Oxford based lock Smith
@@diykhan I will have to look into that. Did you bring the gearbox with you or is there some model number on the device itself? I have been googling around and there are so many different versions 😵💫
@@bootsthegod9084 yes I did
Wow. So refreshing seeing a proper diy vid where the creator ISNT trying to make it all about them or their business/service! To the point and education. Thanks. 👍
Thanks
Good one ! Ithanks , I expect those PINS take a real beating over the years ,,, thanks for digging so deep on this !!, great info
Thanks for uploading this. My UPVC door locking mechanism stopped working today. Replaced the central part from local locksmith. Only problem I had was, I found out which lock it was from google, rang local shop who said they had it in stock. When I got to the shop, they asked is it the smaller deadlock or larger, of course i didn’t take the faulty one with me, and of course I had the cheaper one. Wrong. So back again to get the smaller one, but more expensive. Moral of the story is always take the old one for comparing. Still cost me just under £50, and job satisfaction.
Glad to hear your success story
Thank you Mr Khan. I was about to buy a whole new lock, now I understand I just need to change the gearbox.
You are welcome thanks 😊
Superb. Thank you very much. Faced with the prospect of fixing a similar problem, and never having touched one of these before, I was considering calling in an expert (Probably an expensive expert!). your clear and concise video made this a breeze to repair. Top marks. 😊👍
Thank you 😊
Thank you very much for posting this. I just replaced mone today. If it weren't for this, i would have been down atleast £150 if i had to call a locksmith. Brilliant and thanks again.
You are welcome thanks
Very clear and precise video. Going to hopefully do the same with my patio door. Thank you

A thank you from me. I looked at a lot of videos to research the problem I was having.

You are welcome thanks 😊
This is a really good video! Thank you for taking the time to create and share this - really helpful 😊
You are welcome thanks 😊
@@diykhan I've just had to drill the lock because it didn't have the key when the handle was pulled up by mistate, how can I stop it locking that way when I fit a new lock. Thanks.
I've got that same door lock. Glad this video has helped. Fingers crossed it will work properly
Good luck with your job 👍
Really useful and helpful video - many thanks
You are welcome thanks
Many thanks that’s really help me
You are welcome thanks
Great video fella - I'm off to buy the required part!
You are welcome thanks
Great video! Very helpful thanks 👍
You are welcome thanks
Excellent tutorial but I would add one word of caution. The screws which retain the locking strip into the edge of the door are self tapping and screw directly into the PVC. It is important to get these screws very straight as if they are only slightly off centre they can foul the sliding mechanism.
Thanks for your appreciation. 👍🏼
Thank you so much , very helpful video 👍
You are welcome thanks 😊
excellent video. I was wondering what was behind that moving plate. You look like you re a pro and used to these upvc locks
You are welcome 😊
Cheers great info, thanks for sharing I am just off to my daughters house to a problem door lock.👍
Good luck. Thanks
54 lbs vs. a tiny tiny screw, now a day they don’t make anything to last, obsolescence!
Great job.
Thanks
Thank you for this video
You are welcome thanks
Thank you sir for the video great job
You are welcome 😊
Really helpful video. May I suggest you change that euro cylinder lock for a anti snap one.
You are welcome thanks 😊
When you put the barrel back in the door I didn't see you putting the screw in that holds the barrel in place. Did you forget to put it back in or did you forget to film it?
Been looking everywhere for this video, I have the same problem but it locks fine just won't open again, thanks
Good luck with your job
Hi my key Jammed one side door but can use key other side door and lock unlock fine any ideas. Was a sudden seizure door had been working fine. I tried a little oil didn’t help
Really helpful., thanks. Have the same problem !
You are welcome thanks
I have a 3 way locking mechanism would the whole mechanism need replacing ? Its a safeware 3 point lock hook latch type
Cheers .... that's my exact issue ....🎉🎉
Hi
very nice informative video.
i have a similar issue but with the lock part that comes out into the door frame side after turning key to lock the door . On inspection , the slot (vertical -rectangular in shape)inner edge which seems to contain an inner layer of some material has bent forwards into the cavity , preventing /blocking the latch part that moves into slot with key is turned to lock the door.
Any possible solutions for this .
Many thanks.
It may be worth checking Amazon as a replacement gearbox for most models can be had for less than 20 quid.
And after 3 years no problems
My mother has a problem opening her front door. She has to yank down on the handle
A few times until the door opens, it’s a upvc door. What would it likely be?
Good job.....
Thanks 😊
Many thanks.
Thank you for this
You are welcome thanks
Great video! My door has the opposite problem which is not unlocking /opening the door with the key..could this be a problem with the mechanism or the barrel? Thanks
Yes try it
IA will try, do you think it will be tricky to open the door once the handle has come off? And trying to turn the inside notch with a large screw driver? Any tips that you could recommend? Once the door has opened that's the hardest part the seems easy. Jzk khair
Yes try it
See how it goes
Good luck
If the key turns and you can hear a faint click then it is a mechanism issue if the key keeps spinning then it could be either but usually a mechanism problem, if the key wont turn at all then it is a cylinder,if it turns a bit it could be either.
@@cardiffpicker1 thanks
Great video mate, thanks
You are welcome thanks
Nice one , thanks
My lock gets stuck, I have to pull it out with pliers so thinking of doing what you did..what was the company in Oxford you used as I’m not far from Oxford. Great video as well 👍🏻
Its called bma varsity Ltd
15 Oxford Rd, Cowley, Oxford OX4 2EN
Good luck
@@diykhan cheers mate I’ll get the mechanism out the weekend & measure it 👍🏻
You are welcome
Good luck
Thanks
my door handles are the same but they don't come off when removing the screw's. I think they have an extra security or internal screw? any help?
Good job, but I couldn't watch you using the power screwdriver when screwing things back, you can very easily strip these plastic threads. I'm up for the same job, will do everything manually, plus will lube the screws before putting them back in just in case.
Amazing hack 💖💖
Thanks
So useful many thanks 👍
Thanks
DId you buy the same gearbox as the old one or any gearbox will work?
Its has to be same one so that all the holes and screws can line up.
Thank you for this vid 👍
You are welcome thanks
The barrell didn't come out after unscrewing that one screw. Do you have to unscrew the others for it to come out?
Try inserting the key in the lock and try to wiggle n turn the key little bit n it should come out
good video helpful
Good luck n thanks
Good job!
You are welcome thanks
Thanks a lot dude!
You are welcome thanks

I think for that price, I may as well put in a deadlock key system. Seems cheaper than the price u said. Maybe that's what happened with my front door.
Yes seems like the good idea. Fingers crossed 🤞
Sounds like that’s my problem. Trip to the locksmith on the cards for me.
Good luck 👍
How can I open euro cylinder without damaging it. It's a new cylinder. But won't unlock door as the gearbox is broke.
I snapped the 1st cylinder, to open door. I fitted new cylinder. And customer locked it without my say , so now I'm back to square 1..
Can I open without any damage.?
What about the little latches on gearbox?
Can't I flick a latch on the gearbox to open door?
Hi. Its bit tricky without looking at the actual lock.
@@diykhan Yeh i understand. I also get asked questions in relation to my job. But im a BIG Visual sorta guy. When im in front of whateva, its so much easier to explain, How To! To Whoeva.
@@diykhan When its not so late, id appreciate any experience you have that would help, thanks
Where do you get new gearbox from.
Hi. From BMA Varsity Ltd, Oxford Road, Oxford
informative
You are welcome thanks
Wow❤
You are welcome 😊
Old style gear box mechanism doesn't have screw, how to open them?
They r assembled with riveted joins
My wife would have hit the roof with the way this man threw the handles etc onto that table.
Which screws did u open star screws or 4 way screws
It depends on different types of locks
@@diykhan i have same like yours. Star and 4 way screws
How many did u open is what i meant.
@@wasim18m please follow the video as its been a while when I did this job
@@diykhan i just dont know which screws to open thats all. Everything else is fine. As there alot of screws.
Is the locking mechanism you replaced universal for all UPVC doors?
No, they differ depending on doors type
@@diykhan I have the same problem, just wondering if it’s the barrel or locking mechanism
