Door Lock Replacement
authorised like-for-like ordinary mechanical door locksets
Greenvale property context
Planning door lock replacement in Greenvale starts with the actual item and its setting. Show both faces, the door edge and strike, with the supplied lock model, door thickness and relevant dimensions. The address identifies the locality; it does not establish the construction, condition or accessibility of the property. For a Greenvale quote, describe each task separately and note height, parking, tenant access or preferred appointment windows. This gives the Owner enough context to assess the request without collecting unnecessary personal information.
Common situations
Photograph the edge preparation and both door faces. A different lock body may require work beyond a straightforward compatible swap. Structural alteration, rebuilding damaged sections and specialist door-system changes are excluded rather than assumed to be part of replacement hardware fitting.
The distance from the door edge to the operating centre affects compatibility. Share the product drawing and existing measurement if safely available. An incorrect backset can place the handle or mechanism against old holes, so check before purchasing a replacement.
Check the accepted mechanical hardware with the door open and then in its ordinary closed position. The authorised customer should understand the supplied product’s operation. This is a fitting check, not a security assessment, compliance certificate or promise against unauthorised entry.
Planning the work
Show both faces, the door edge and strike, with the supplied lock model, door thickness and relevant dimensions. Keep labels and instructions available so the item can be identified accurately instead of relying on a general description.
Clear the immediate working area where safe and explain heavy furniture or restricted entry. For rentals or managed properties, agree the appropriate permission and identify the person who can provide access.
Replace suitable ordinary mechanical hardware in the compatible existing preparation and check its operation with the authorised customer. Identify any additional items separately so the scope and preparation are understood by everyone arranging the work.
Unexpected conditions can alter the available options. Any additional work, different components or separate specialist requirement should be discussed before extending the agreed task, rather than treated as automatically included.

Service overview
Identify whether the supplied product matches the ordinary existing lockset arrangement. Similar handles can conceal different mechanisms. This task excludes emergency entry, key cutting, rekeying, specialist security advice and powered access systems; it starts with authorised access to the door.
The person arranging the job must have authority for the property and hardware change. For a rental or managed property, agree the appropriate permission and access contact. An enquiry does not establish ownership or authorise gaining entry to a locked property.
Hardware must suit the leaf thickness and the maker’s permitted range. Spindles and fixings are not interchangeable solely because the finish matches. Provide the door specification where possible and keep the complete supplied pack together until the fit is reviewed.
Replace suitable ordinary mechanical hardware in the compatible existing preparation and check its operation with the authorised customer. Scope limits: Authorised ordinary compatible mechanical lockset replacement only. No lockouts, emergency entry, key cutting, rekeying, locksmith security services, rated-door work or electrical integration.
