Services
Lock Fitting
We specialise in BS3621-compliant lock installations for external doors, including mortice deadlocks and cylinder rim locks. Our technicians ensure proper alignment and security compliance for residential and commercial properties. Upgrades to anti-snap, anti-bump systems enhance protection against forced entry methods.
Emergency Lockouts
Available 24/7 for urgent access requirements, our specialists handle lockouts through non-destructive entry techniques where possible. Lost key scenarios prompt secure cylinder replacements while maintaining existing key systems when feasible. Rapid response times prioritise customer safety and convenience.
Key Cutting
Our mobile service provides on-site key cutting for standard and security-coded systems. We maintain extensive blank inventories covering mortice, cylinder, and high-security profiles. Lost key situations benefit from code-based replacements when original key markings exist on lock faceplates.
UPVC Repairs
We diagnose and repair multi-point locking mechanisms in UPVC doors, addressing misalignment, faulty cams, and damaged hooks. Component replacements restore full functionality while maintaining security standards. Adjustments to strike receivers and door frames resolve closure issues affecting locking performance.
Security Upgrades
Assessments identify vulnerabilities in existing systems, recommending upgrades to three-star euro cylinders and supplementary security devices. We install visible window locks and reinforced door mechanisms to deter opportunistic break-ins while maintaining insurance compliance for household policies.
