Stiff or jammed locks in Werribee

A key that is difficult to turn or a lock that sticks can have several causes. Avoid excessive force, which could damage the key or mechanism.

Things to consider

• Note whether the problem happens with the door open or closed.
• Stop forcing the key if the mechanism remains difficult to operate.
