Gearbox Replacement in Doxford Park

Doxford Park: Gearbox Replacement completed

This Doxford Park job began after the customer couldn't lock their door due to a failed gearbox as the hooks weren't engaging when the handle was lifed. Faulty gearbox. Before leaving, we tested the door following fitting the new gearbox and confirmed it opened, closed and locked correctly.

A failing door gearbox usually gives some warning first: a handle that gets heavier to lift, a door that needs a lift-and-shove to lock, or a latch that stops catching properly. Replacing the gearbox itself is normally all that is needed.
