01 / Lock Types
Locks We Repair and Replace in Dubai
Euro Cylinders
Cylinder locks used on most modern entrance and uPVC doors. Swapping the cylinder changes the keys quickly. Anti-snap cylinders improve security.
Sliding Door Locks
Hook locks on aluminium balcony and patio doors. Sand and wear stop them catching. Repairing them restores security.
Multi-Point Locks
Locks that secure the door at several points along the edge. They are common on uPVC and villa doors. Gearboxes and keeps are repaired or replaced.
02 / Process
How We Repair or Replace a Lock
- 01
Identify the Lock
We identify the lock type and size so any replacement fits the existing door without new cutting.
- 02
Diagnose the Fault
Worn levers, a failed cylinder, a misaligned keep or a broken gearbox each need a different fix.
- 03
Repair or Replace
The faulty part is repaired or replaced, and the keep realigned so the lock throws smoothly.
- 04
Test Every Key
Every key is tested from both sides and the door locked and unlocked repeatedly.

Keeping Dubai Homes Secure
Most lock failures we see are caused by misalignment rather than the lock itself. When a door drops or a sliding door sits lower on worn rollers, the lock no longer meets its keep and has to be forced. Fixing the alignment often fixes the lock.
When you move into a new apartment or villa, changing the cylinder means you know exactly who has keys. It is quick and inexpensive and covered under doorknob fixing and lock changes.
Sliding balcony doors that will not lock often need new rollers too, covered under door repairs and adjustments. For smart locks, see smart lock installation.

Lock Repair and Replacement: Frequently Asked Questions
How Much Does Lock Repair and Replacement Cost in Dubai?
A lock repair or replacement visit starts from AED 150 plus the lock or cylinder. Multi-point lock gearboxes are priced by the part. Prices vary and can change depending on your exact requirements, the materials and access to the property, so the final price is confirmed after we see photos or visit.
What Types of Doors Do You Repair?
We repair hinged internal and entrance doors, sliding balcony doors, wardrobe doors, bi-fold doors, garage doors and gates, in timber, aluminium, uPVC and glass.
What Are Signs My Sliding Door Needs Repair?
A sliding door that sticks, jumps off its track, grinds, will not lock or lets in dust and hot air needs attention. In Dubai, sand in the bottom track and worn rollers are the most common causes.
Should I Repair or Replace My Sliding Door?
Most sliding doors can be repaired by cleaning the track, replacing rollers, adjusting the frame and renewing seals. Replacement is only needed if the frame is bent, corroded or the glass unit has failed.
How Long Does Lock Repair and Replacement Take in Dubai?
Cylinder swaps take 20 to 30 minutes. Mortice and multi-point lock replacements take one to two hours.
