A Lock Is Only As Strong As the Door It Is In
Most forced entries do not involve much force. They involve a worn lock, a door that no longer closes squarely, or a frame that gives before the lock does — and fitting a better cylinder to a tired door fixes only a third of that.
We change and upgrade locks, but we also put right the thing the lock is fitted to. That is the difference between a property maintenance firm doing your locks and someone who only carries cylinders: if the frame needs work, the hinges have dropped or the door has swollen, we can deal with it in the same visit.
What We Cover on Locks & Doors
Lock changes, security upgrades and putting things right after a break-in
Lock Changes & Upgrades
New locks fitted where the old ones are worn, unreliable or simply not good enough.
uPVC & Multipoint Mechanisms
The most common failure we see: the handle lifts but the door will not lock, or the mechanism has gone stiff.
Insurance-Spec Locks
British Standard locks fitted to the specification your policy asks for, so the lock meets the wording of your policy.
Break-In Damage Repair
Doors, frames and locks repaired properly after a forced entry, rather than patched to get through the week.
Boarding Up & Making Secure
Getting a property secure after damage during working hours, then coming back to do the permanent repair.
Landlord & Tenant Changeovers
Locks changed between tenancies, so the last tenant's keys stop being a question you have to think about.
Commercial Lock Changes
Shops, offices and units, including keyed-alike sets so one key opens the doors it should.
Door & Frame Repair
Dropped hinges, swollen timber and frames that no longer hold a lock square — fixed, not worked around.
Who We Help
Lock and door security work for homes, rentals and commercial premises.
Homeowners
Homeowners changing locks after moving in, or with a door that has stopped locking properly.
Landlords & Letting Agents
Changeovers between tenancies, so the last tenant’s keys stop being a question you think about.
Businesses & Commercial Properties
Shops, offices and units needing access controlled, including keyed-alike and master systems.
Property Managers
Portfolios needing lock changes handled consistently across addresses, with keys accounted for.

-
The Door, Not Just the Lock
Hinges, frames and swollen timber are usually part of the problem. We fix those in the same visit.
-
Known Faces, Not Strangers
The same small team every time, not whoever was free that morning. You will know who is coming and who fitted your locks.
-
Priced Before We Start
A fixed price once we have seen it, rather than a call-out fee and a number invented on the doorstep.
-
Sensible Advice First
If your existing locks are fine and the problem is a dropped door, we will tell you that rather than sell you cylinders.
-
One Firm, Not Three
Locks, joinery and the making-good afterwards handled by the same team, so nobody blames anybody else.

Step 1
Tell Us What Is Happening

The lock, the mechanism, the hinges and the frame, because the fault is often not where people expect.
-
Step 3
A Fixed Price
What needs doing, what it will cost, and which options actually make a difference to security.

Fitted and Tested
Locks fitted, the door checked to close and lock cleanly, and every key handed over and accounted for.
