Replacement Locks/Cylinders
UPVC door locks/cylinders can be difficult to replace, as they come in so many different sizes, types and finishes. The main thing to worry about is that they don’t stick out from the handle, as they can then easily be snapped off by burglars and the door opened in seconds.
We carry virtually all sizes and finishes of UPVC cylinder on our vans, so we can replace your lock on our first visit.
We fit 6 pin, anti-drill cylinders as standard. So if you have lost a set of keys, your lock is faulty or you want your lock replaced for any other reason, phone us now.

 

Adjusting Hanging/Closing of Door
Over time your door can feel harder to close or lock. This may be in closing the door, lifting the handle to throw the locking points or turning the key to deadlock. It is normally quite a simple thing for us to fix. Failure to do so may put too much pressure on the working parts and result in a broken mechanism and all the extra cost and problems which that involves (especially if you’re locked outside when it fails!).
So if you are having trouble closing or locking your UPVC door, phone us now.

 

 

Fitting Higher Security Cylinders
We fit many different types of higher end cylinders. Although we fit 6 pin anti-drill cylinders as standard, we can supply and fit even higher security cylinders on request. A common weakness with all euro and oval cylinders is snapping (whereby the cylinder can be snapped in half and then access gained quite easily) and many people are increasingly becoming concerned at “bumping” (whereby a lock can be “bumped” open with a specially cut down key). Both of these methods are regularly shown on the internet!
We can supply and fit virtually all types of high security cylinder, including; bump resistant, snap resistant, pin in pin and restricted profile cylinders.
We would also highly recommend having Sash Jammers fitted to your UPVC door. In the case of the security on your lock being compromised, these are a very affordable way of keeping your door held closed and therefore a very good additional layer of security.
To discuss your UPVC door security needs, please call us now.

 

Fitting “Thumbturn” Locks
These are becoming very popular in commercial properties and flats, to comply with tougher fire regulations. They are also popular with the elderly. The idea behind them is that in the event of a fire, you don’t have to search around for a key, but just turn the thumbturn on the inside of the door to release the deadlock. Thumbturn cylinders work off a key from the outside, as normal.

 

Emergency Door Opening Service
We offer a 24 hour emergency door opening service. Whether you have lost your keys or your lock or mechanism is faulty, we can get you back in. As ever, we promise that if your lock is not faulty or broken, If We Drill or Damage Your Lock, We Will Replace it Free of Charge.
