Lock Change FAQs
When should I change my locks?
After moving into a new property, losing keys, a break-in or attempted burglary, a change of tenants or staff, or if your current locks are worn or don’t meet insurance standards.
How long does it take to change a lock?
Most euro cylinder changes take 15–30 minutes. Mortice locks and multipoint mechanisms can take a little longer.
Do you supply the new locks or just fit them?
Both. We carry a range of quality locks on the van and can also fit a lock you’ve already bought if it’s suitable.
Can you change my locks the same day?
Yes — in most cases we can change your locks the same day, often within the hour.
Are your locks insurance-approved?
Yes. We supply and fit British Standard BS3621 locks and TS007 3-star anti-snap euro cylinders, which meet the requirements of most UK home and contents insurance policies.
Can you change locks for both homes and businesses?
Yes. We work for homeowners, tenants, landlords, letting agents, shops, offices and other commercial premises across East London.
Will I need to change the whole lock or just the cylinder?
On uPVC and composite doors it’s usually just the euro cylinder. On timber doors with mortice locks we may replace the whole lock if it’s not British Standard.
Do you charge a call-out fee for lock changes?
No. We don’t charge a call-out fee — you only pay for the work carried out, and we agree the price with you before we start.
