High-security locks
Upgrading a lock usually follows a scare: an attempt on the stairwell, a neighbour who was broken into, or a door that simply feels flimsy. Before selling anything we look at the door you actually have — quite often the cylinder and a security escutcheon are enough.
When to message us
- There has been an attempt on your door or on one in the same stairwell
- A neighbour was broken into and you want to know where you stand
- The door feels flimsy and the lock is the original one
- Your insurer has asked for a specific level of lock
- You want the same key to open several doors
What moves the price
- Cylinder only, or lock and escutcheon together
- The security level chosen
- How many doors are involved
- Whether they are keyed alike
How the job is done
1
We look at what you have
Very often the cylinder and a security escutcheon are enough, and a whole new lock would be money spent on the wrong part of the door.
2
Understand what you are buying
Anti-bump, anti-drill, anti-snap — they resist different attacks. You get told which one matters for your door rather than a list of features.
3
Fitted by appointment
Installation work: it comes by van, measured first, agreed in advance.
4
Keys accounted for
You get the full set, counted, and the old lock. If several doors are keyed alike, you get one key that opens them all.
What high-security locks costs
The rate is the same in all 54 towns we cover: distance is never charged separately. What moves the amount is the hour, the day and the type of lock.
