Three common types of locking mechanisms:

1) Lever/Pad Operation (usually front door)- When closed the door is locked on the latch and cannot be opened from the outside without a key. To double lock the door, lift up the handle to engage the locking points and then turn the key once to lock. To unlock, if the door has been double-locked, turn the key once, push handle down, turn key furthur to unlock latch.

2) Lever/Lever Operation (usually back door) - Lift the handle to engage the locking points and then turn the key once to lock. To unlock turn the key once, and push down the handle.

3) Key Wind Operation (front or back door) - Turn the key 2 or more times to fully engage all of the locking points. To unlock turn the key 2 or more times to release the locking points.

Always Double-lock your UPVC door

UPVC doors that have just been pulled shut on the latch are not secure.
