How much for a lock change in Liverpool?

From £89 for a standard Yale-type cylinder up to £189 for an insurance-grade BS3621 mortice. Anti-snap upgrades add £30 to £60 on top. Quoted before we leave the depot.

Same-day service across L postcodes?

Usually yes. Booked before noon means done by late afternoon. Older Victorian terraces in L8 or L17 with non-standard mortice cases occasionally need a 24-hour turnaround if a particular size has to come from the supplier.

Will the new locks meet my insurer's spec?

If your policy specifies BS3621, that's what we fit on external doors by default. SS312 Diamond cylinders are also stocked. Mention the policy wording when you ring and we'll match it on the van.

All my locks or just the front?

Lost keys means changing every external lock that key opens. Moving in or post-tenant in a Liverpool rental, front and back doors usually cover it. After a burglary, every external lock plus tested window locks.

Anti-snap cylinders, are they worth the upgrade?

On older terraces with flush-fit cylinders, definitely. The Merseyside police local crime data flags lock-snapping in some L7 and L15 areas. An anti-snap break leaves the working portion in the door.

Can I have all doors on one key?

Yes. Tell us at booking and we'll cylinder all your external doors so a single key works everywhere. Slightly more expensive than mixed cylinders but easier on a keyring.

Do you remove the old locks?

Yes, unless you ask to keep them. Some folk hold onto old cylinders for outbuildings or shed doors. Just tell the engineer.

What Our Customers Say

Splitting up with my partner meant changing every lock in the L17 flat. Five cylinders done in under two hours. Quiet and discreet about it which I appreciated.

Priya S. Lock change
Front door kicked in while we were visiting family in Birkenhead. Came home to a mess. Same engineer boarded the frame that night, came back next day to fit BS3621 mortice locks.

Mark D. Burglary repair
Got locked out at 6am with a flight to catch from JLA. Engineer made it from his van in St Helens in 22 minutes and had me in shortly after. Caught the flight by minutes.

Gareth E. Emergency lockout
uPVC patio door on our place in Allerton wouldn't lock after a windy weekend. Multipoint had given up. New gearbox fitted in just over an hour for £119.
