UPVC Door Stuck

Mar10_W

Hoping Someone may be able to help.

My UPVC door out to my balcony is stuck from the lock. The handle moves fine, the door just is completely jammed in the middle.

Is there an easy way to fix this without paying someone loads of money to do it.

Please note, im not very good at DIY, so might not understand certain terminology. Please make your advice idiot proof......

With the weather like it is now, we would like to be able to go outside when we want.

Thank you in advance.

try removing the handles and use say a screwdriver to release the operating/locking bar.

or, see if you can remove the hinge pins. that way you can take off the door and then access the side edge.
and fix the locking/sliding bar from there.

heres a typical upvc door hinge. they all work in much the same way. removing the pins may differ, but only slightly.
