My Front UPVC door handle / lock is faulty. it is a 1 hook 3 deadlock and a latch multipoint fitted originally by anglian.
When i try to open the door the handle goes down but feels "spongy" and doesnt actually open the latch. To open the door i must first lift the handle to activate the multipoints then pull handle down and it opens perfect?
Can anyone advise what the problem may be and how i go about repairing this or would i need a full new multipoint system.
If it is a full new system i cant see on the bar any manufacturer so can i just measure and compare like for like.
it sounds like youre lock is faulty,but without seeing the prob i couldnt say fore sure,if you want to replace lockstrip you could google upvc multipoint locks and plenty of site will show up,have a look through catalogue until you find yours.hope this helps
