Completed sash lock, handle and key replacement on a classroom door at Cambois Primary School. Classroom Door Locked Shut The school contacted us after the classroom door became locked shut. The sash lock had failed and the handle assembly was damaged, leaving staff unable to use the door normally.

Work Completed Outside School Hours The permanent repair was completed outside normal school hours to avoid disruption to lessons, pupils and teaching staff.
