Frequently Asked Questions — Dudley
-
How much is a lock change in Dudley?
A standard cylinder swap is £89 to £129. A full BS3621 mortice replacement is £139 to £189, including the lock and labour.
-
How long does the work take?
A like-for-like cylinder swap takes 20 to 30 minutes. A new mortice with hole adjustment can be an hour.
-
Should I change locks after losing keys?
If keys are gone rather than mislaid, swapping the cylinder is the safer option. The lock body stays, only the cylinder is renewed.
-
What lock fits a Dudley chain-shop terrace?
Most Victorian Black Country terraces take a 5-lever BS3621 mortice in the lower position with a Yale-style nightlatch above. Both stocked on the van.
-
Do you fit anti-snap cylinders for uPVC?
Yes. TS007 3-star or SS312 Diamond cylinders are the standard upgrade and what most insurers expect.
-
Can new locks match my existing keys?
Two or more new locks can be keyed alike at fitting. Matching to an existing third-party key isn't usually possible.
-
Is there a guarantee?
12 months on workmanship. Manufacturer warranties on cylinders run from 1 to 10 years depending on brand.
What Our Customers Say
-
Forced entry on a side door overnight, frame split. They boarded that night, came back to fit a new frame and locks. Insurance happy with the invoice.
-
Burglary attempt overnight, cylinder bumped on the back door. Diamond-grade SS312 cylinder fitted, sash jammer added inside. Felt secure straight away.
-
Bent key broke off in the back door of our 1950s semi. Engineer extracted it, lock kept, fair £69 for the call.
-
Snapped key in the lock at midnight after a wedding. Engineer was there in 24 minutes, fished it out without drilling. £75.
