THE WORK, EXPLAINED
Start with the condition.
Understand the scope.
A mortise-lock assessment checks the case, springs, levers and key operation. Ask whether worn components can be serviced and matched, or whether a compatible replacement case is needed. Confirm how existing door joinery will be preserved.
What may be involved
- case springs and followers
- lever packs
- skeleton and bit key blanks
- period-pattern replacement case if needed
Ask the provider to distinguish existing parts to inspect, proposed replacements, and tools, materials or reports included in the service. Confirm the work and exclusions after assessment; this list does not mean that every item will be supplied or replaced.
Before the visit
Tell us the lock type, your location and whether you still have a working key.
