Is it possible to change the locks easily on a UPVC door? Is it possible to easily put a bolt on top and bottom of a UPVC door for added security? Thank you

Both are really easy. With the upvc you'd need to call a locksmith to have it Identified and measured up. This will ensure you get the right replacement and dont have to alter the door as much.

You can't put bolts on, but you can put sash jammer on this will do the same job, and yes you can change the locks if you know what you're doing.

Locks can be changed with DIY experience, but a locksmith will have the technical knowledge of correct size of lock & the level of lock security to be fitted.
You can fit sash Jammers to UPVC door ( and windows) for extra security - too match the PVC colour ( eg white / brown).
