When should I change the locks?

After moving in, losing keys, splitting up with someone who had a set, or a forced-entry attempt. Also a good idea if the cylinder is more than 15 years old and not anti-snap rated.

What does a lock change cost in Stockport?

£89 to £189 per lock supplied and fitted, depending on whether you choose a basic euro cylinder or a TS007 3-star anti-snap. Multipoint doors with several locks come down per-unit on a multi-lock booking.

Can you fit anti-snap cylinders?

Yes, this is standard now on most jobs. Sold Secure Diamond and TS007 3-star anti-snap cylinders are stocked in the common sizes. Stockport's older terraces often have basic euros that snap easily, so the upgrade is worth it.

Will I get new keys included?

Three keys come standard with a new cylinder. More keys can be cut on site for £4 to £8 each. Bringing the old cylinder along, restricted-key systems take a few extra days.

Do you change locks on Victorian doors without ruining the woodwork?

Yes, we work carefully on original wooden doors common in Heaton Moor and Davenport. Most period doors take a modern euro cylinder or rim cylinder cleanly without enlarging the hole.

Can the same key work on multiple doors?

Keyed-alike installations are easy at the time of a lock change. Tell us when booking and the cylinders come pre-keyed. Worth doing if you have separate front, back, and garage doors.

How long until I can use the door again after a lock change?

Immediately. The door is fully functional within minutes of the cylinder going in. We test the key, the handle, and the multipoint engagement before leaving.

What Our Customers Say

Old mortice on the cellar door of a Victorian terrace had rusted shut. Other locksmiths quoted blind. This lot priced it on the phone at £89 and stuck to it.

Sam B. Lock change
Moved into a Victorian terrace in Heaton Moor and wanted everything rekeyed before the cat arrived. Three locks done in just over an hour. Fitted anti-snap cylinders without me even asking for the upsell.

Megan F. Lock change
Letting agent gave us a key that didn't work. Stood outside our SK4 flat for forty minutes before I gave up and called these. They turned up faster than the agent.

Olivia T. Emergency lockout
Genuine no-callout-fee policy on a 1am job in Edgeley. Quoted £49 for a simple lockout, charged £49. Card machine on the van too.
