What should I do if my WordLock is jammed?

Asked 4 months ago
If a WordLock is jammed, there are several steps one may consider to resolve the issue. First, it is essential to examine the lock closely for any visible obstructions, such as dirt or debris that could be preventing it from operating smoothly. Gently cleaning around the mechanism may help to remove any foreign substances that might be causing the jam. Next, it is advisable to ensure that the lock is correctly aligned. Sometimes, attempting to force the mechanism can exacerbate the problem. It is important to try rotating the letters slowly and evenly, ensuring that each character is positioned correctly. If the lock remains jammed, another approach is to apply a small amount of lubricant to the moving parts. A graphite-based lubricant is often recommended, as it can help facilitate movement within the lock without attracting dirt. Should the lock still not function after attempting these steps, looking for troubleshooting information on the current web page dedicated to WordLock may provide further guidance or specific solutions. If necessary, reaching out through the contact options available on their site may offer additional assistance.
