Beko / Washer dryer / BR6
The door stays locked after drying

Do not prise the handle or attempt an emergency release without the correct instructions. Tell us about visible water and any unusual heat when requesting advice.
Compare this observation: the drum turns unevenly
Identify the operation during which the drum movement changes: washing, fast spin or drying. Different stages can use different turning patterns. Describe a new noise or interruption separately from ordinary reversals. Keep hands clear of a moving drum and do not open the cabinet; the model and stage help make the report useful.
The fitting is behind a furniture panel.
Describe the panel, plinth and visible surroundings. Leave the appliance fitted; photographs and an access description are enough to begin.

A useful question for the enquiry
Does “the door stays locked after drying” establish the failed part?
No. Describe that observation separately from “the drum turns unevenly”. Explain whether they began together or at different times, and include the fitting detail: the fitting is behind a furniture panel. The inspection can then consider the symptoms and safe access together.
