Door Lock Repair in Dubai

Message your location, door type, and lock details on WhatsApp. We will review the access issue and confirm the next available visit and required scope before dispatch.

We can supply and fit a suitable lock or replace one you provide. Tell us the door type for the right recommendation.

Often. We check frame movement, hinges, the strike plate, latch and door clearances, then quote the practical adjustment, repair or minor planing. Seasonal movement or a distorted frame may need a wider carpentry or door-replacement scope.

Indicative 2026 Dubai benchmarks range from about AED 129–175 for an inspection or first-hour visit, AED 150–350 for simple repair or alignment, AED 250–800+ for cylinder, handle or mortise replacement with parts, and AED 150–350+ for many residential lockouts. The final quote depends on the hardware, door, urgency, access and parts.

Indicative 2026 Dubai bands are about AED 250–800+ to change a cylinder, handle or mortise lock including parts and keys; confirm whether the AED 129–175 first-hour visit is included or charged separately in the quote. A like-for-like cylinder swap sits at the lower end; a full mortise body, a high-security cylinder or a door that also needs alignment sits higher. Send a photo of the lock face and door edge and we confirm the lock type and a clear price before the visit.

If the issue is alignment, lubrication, a loose handle, or a serviceable cylinder, repair may be enough. If the mechanism is damaged or cannot secure the door reliably, we explain replacement options before proceeding.

Yes. Share a photo of the sliding door edge, handle, lock, and track area so we can identify the hook bolt, latch, or alignment issue and plan the right repair.

We can review the door thickness, lock body, backset, power or battery arrangement, building rules and access requirements first. Compatibility, device supply, programming and the final fitting scope are confirmed before any installation quote.

Send the location, door type and photos if safe. For a lockout or lock change, the technician may need proof of occupancy or owner or property-manager authorization, and an apartment building may require security or management coordination.

Yes — we handle apartment, villa, and office doors across Dubai. Share the door type, lock photos, location, and access notes so we can recommend the right repair or replacement.

It is a sensible precaution, because you cannot know how many keys exist for the previous occupant. Replacing the cylinder or lock on the entrance door is the usual step. Check first with your landlord or building management, since an apartment’s entrance lock may be subject to building security rules, and keep any original lock if the tenancy contract requires it to be returned.

We aim for non-destructive access first where the door and lock allow it. Some situations cannot be solved that way, such as a deadbolt thrown from inside, a high-security cylinder or a damaged mechanism, and in those cases we tell you honestly that drilling or replacement is needed and quote it before we proceed. We may ask for proof that you live there or are authorised before opening a door.

For minor repairs such as adjusting alignment or a loose handle, usually not, but for changing the entrance lock or cylinder in a rented apartment you should check your tenancy contract and inform the landlord or building management. Many towers have security or access rules for entrance doors. We can work to whatever approval you obtain, and we note the scope in the quote.

Often yes. If the lock body and latch are in good condition, a euro cylinder can be replaced on its own, which is usually the quicker and lower-cost route. The length and profile have to match the lock case, so a photo of the lock edge and the cylinder, or a measurement, helps us confirm before the visit. If the body or latch is worn too, replacing the whole lock is the more reliable fix.

Do not force the key or keep turning it. Send a photo of the lock and key and a note on whether the door is currently locked or open. A stuck key may be freed and the cylinder inspected, whereas a broken key or a damaged cylinder usually needs the cylinder replaced. We confirm the approach and the quote before work starts.

Yes, for repair only: hinge, closer, latch, handle and lock work on metal doors, and the same on fire-rated doors where approved parts are available. We do not certify or test fire doors or state what a door’s fire rating is. If the door forms part of a fire escape route, confirm with building management before hardware is changed.
