Insurance-standard locks, window locks, gate latches and door chains, fitted after a free survey of every door and window you want looked at.
What is included
A good upgrade starts with the doors and windows you actually use. We walk round with you, check every lock against what your insurer asks for, and write down what to fit in order of what matters most. Then you decide.
For most houses it is short: a three-star cylinder on the front and back doors, a mortice deadlock to BS 3621 on any timber final exit door, locks on the downstairs windows, and a latch on the side gate that cannot be lifted off from outside. We fit the lot in one visit and key it to as few keys as the locks allow.
Cameras, alarms and smart locks are not our trade, and we will not pretend otherwise. If a smart lock is what you want, we will check the door it is going on is up to carrying it.
“He told me my old mortice was fine and only the nightlatch needed changing. Saved me about eighty pounds on what I thought I needed.”
Yes, when it is booked in a daytime slot. You get a written list with prices and you decide what, if anything, to fit.
Check the policy wording. Most ask for a five-lever mortice deadlock to BS 3621 on timber final exit doors, or a multipoint lock on uPVC and composite doors. We put the standard on the receipt.
Wherever the locks allow it. Cylinders, gate locks and many padlocks can share one key; mortice deadlocks usually keep their own, so most houses end up with two keys rather than six.
