Replace Old or Damaged Locks Fast

We can change locks in under an hour, wherever you are in the SW1 or SW3 area, whether it’s because of a broken lock or one that no longer functions as intended. We offer a very affordable price for changing locks near you with our emergency services. Just give us a call on 07309909989 for a fast service or a quote.

Changing locks after you move in to a new house

One of the main reasons our lock replacement service is requested is for people moving into new homes. When you get the keys to your new home it’s an exciting experience, but you don’t know who else could have those very same keys to gain access to your property.

The smart thing to do when you move into a new property is a full lock rekey so that old keys no longer work, or to replace the lock entirely. Replacing locks with a high-security lock change gives you the confidence that nobody else has your keys and that you’ve also upgraded the security of your new home.

You can even ask our expert locksmiths about keyed alike systems, where you have one key cut multiple times, but it can open every door in your property, even the garage door.

Note: we cannot cut vehicle keys or fobs for car keys, and we do not offer an automotive lockout service or other car locksmith services.

New doors or locks to offer the best security solutions?

Sometimes, it’s advisable to have a new door installed as opposed to just replacing the door locks. This is because rot and moisture can cause a wooden door to become warped in the frame, and even with planing, sanding, and rehanging, it won’t make any difference.

We would advise a new door on older properties which are no longer able to withstand a forced entry attempt, even with the best high security locks. It doesn’t make any sense to install a brand new lock on an old, worn-out door, and it would be a waste of money.

We can’t install your new door, but when you have it installed, we can come back at a time that’s convenient for you and you can choose the lock and hardware you want.

FAQs

Do you replace all lock types?

We offer an efficient service that can fit any kind of lock you need. We have a range of replacement locks and replacement keys to choose from, whether it’s for your front door, back door, side door, garage door, or internal doors.

We handle common locks like mortises and cylinders, but we can also install nightlatches and other security measures to keep you safe. What’s more, we have a selection of colours and finishes to choose from as well as door hardware like hinges, strike plates and door handles.

Is lock replacement covered by insurance?

Lock replacement is not usually covered by your home or business insurance unless it is specifically stated in your agreement. Sometimes, if your home or business has been the target of vandalism or a burglary and locks, doors, and door frames were damaged during the break-in attempt, then it might be possible to claim it back.

We will always provide a full itemised invoice in case you want to make a claim, and you can take photographs of the lock before and after to send to them. The best thing to do is upgrade to a BS3621 or TS007 3-star lock which offers insurance-grade protection.
