What should I expect to spend?

My key scrapes going in.

The lever droops when I let go.
- Slack fixings or a tired spring. We resecure it or fit a fresh one.
- 04
The door bounces back open.
- Nearly always the keeper plate sits off line, so we reposition it.
- 05
The bolt resists when I throw it.
- It may be dirty or worn, so we service or exchange it.

The key has locked itself in.
- Leave it alone. We release it carefully and look the lock over.
