Service Overview

Door Locks, Handles & Alignment Repaired

A door can become difficult to use because the frame has shifted, the strike plate is misaligned, the hinges have dropped, the cylinder is worn, or the latch or handle mechanism is failing. Dubai apartment and villa doors also include sliding balcony doors, mortise locks, cylinders, closers, and different hardware sizes, so the right repair starts with identifying the door and lock type.

SKN checks whether the problem can be corrected through alignment, lubrication, adjustment, or a component repair before recommending replacement. If a lock is damaged or no longer safe to rely on, we explain the replacement options and confirm the scope before fitting anything.

For apartment towers, send the building or community, door location, access notes, and photos of the door edge, lock face, handle, hinges, and key if safe to share. Building security or management approval may be needed before a cylinder, closer, or entrance lock is changed. For villas, include gates, external doors, sliding doors, and any shared access points that need review.

Common Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

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.
