EN Locksmith of Herts: Widford, Ware SG12 8RE
Working in the vicinity of Blondes Fine Art
Widford derives its name from the Old English words “wid,” meaning willow tree, and “ford.” The village was named after the willow trees that grew along the riverbank where a ford crossed the River Ash. In the 19th century, Widford had extensive commons, which were enclosed under an award in 1856. A wood named Lily Wood was located to the west of the village, but it was cut down in the late 19th century. According to John Marius Wilson’s description between 1870 and 1872, Widford was a parish with a village located near the Buntingford railway, about 4 miles east by north of Ware. At the time, it had a post office under Ware and a railway station.

The locks on uPVC doors are identified by a mechanism that requires users to lift the handles and turn the key to secure them. They are typically installed on double-glazed doors but are now also popular on new composite doors. One advantage of this type of lock is that it secures the door to the frame in three locations (top, bottom, and middle), unlike traditional locks that only have one position. However, the maintenance of these locks can be more complex and expensive if they need to be replaced. The lock itself is similar to a Euro lock cylinder and can be easily replaced with anti-drill and anti-snap locks, which we recommend as a replacement option.
If you have trouble lifting the handles with the door closed, it is usually a sign that the door is not properly shut or that the mechanism controlling the locking process is misaligned with the frame. We recommend that you contact a qualified locksmith to inspect the door and realign it with the frame to prevent costly repairs or potential security risks. You can easily book our locksmiths to adjust and service these locks by calling our office number 0800 707 4203.
