Frequently Asked Questions — Bromley
-
When should I change my locks in Bromley?
After moving in, losing keys, ending a tenancy, splitting up, or any incident where keys may be unaccounted for. 1960s estate stock with original cylinders also benefits from an upgrade.
-
Do you fit BS3621 insurance-grade locks?
Yes. BS3621 five-lever mortice deadlocks for wooden doors, and TS007 three-star anti-snap cylinders for uPVC and composite. Both meet major insurer requirements.
-
Will you keep the original handles on a 1960s door?
Where possible, yes. Cylinders and gearboxes are swapped without disturbing the external furniture. If handles are corroded we can supply matching replacements.
-
Typical lock change cost?
Single euro cylinder swap from £89. Full BS3621 mortice on a wooden door £119 to £159. Multi-lock packages quoted on inspection.
-
Are anti-snap cylinders worth fitting?
On any uPVC or composite door, yes. Snapping is the most common forced-entry method on Bromley suburban stock. A three-star Sold Secure Diamond cylinder takes far longer to defeat.
-
Multiple locks keyed alike?
Yes. Front, back, garage and outbuilding locks can be keyed alike at the time of fit. Useful in BR semis with several external doors.
-
How long does it take?
Cylinder swap is 20 to 30 minutes. A new mortice fit on a wooden door is closer to 45.
