When is it sensible to change the locks?

After moving in, losing keys, splitting from a partner with a set, or any forced-entry attempt. Worth doing too if the cylinder is over 15 years old and not anti-snap rated.

What does it cost in Telford?

£89 to £189 per lock supplied and fitted, depending on whether you choose a basic euro cylinder or a TS007 3-star anti-snap. Multi-lock bookings drop the per-unit price.

Are anti-snap cylinders worth fitting?

Yes, particularly on Telford new-town uPVC doors where the original euro cylinders are notoriously easy to snap. Sold Secure Diamond rated cylinders take seconds longer to fit but resist that attack pattern entirely.

How many keys come with a new lock?

Three as standard. More can be cut on the van for £4 to £8 each. Restricted-key systems where blanks aren't sold publicly take a few extra days to set up.

Will the door be damaged during the change?

No. Modern euro cylinders drop in and out cleanly when sized correctly, which is the standard fitting on Telford uPVC multipoint doors. Older Victorian ironworks doors near Coalbrookdale take more care but the woodwork stays intact.

Can multiple doors share one key?

Keyed-alike installs are easy at the time of a lock change. Tell us at booking and the cylinders come pre-keyed. Useful for separate front, back, and garage doors.

How soon can the door be used?

Right away. Within minutes of fitting we test the key, the handle action, and the multipoint engagement before leaving site.

What Our Customers Say

Old Victorian ironworks property near Coalbrookdale, mortice on the back door had completely seized. Replaced with a new five-lever for £109 and made fresh keys.

Russell B. Lock change
Going through a divorce, every lock changed in one quiet visit. Five cylinders and two nightlatches in just over two hours. Discreet, professional. Appreciated.

Maxine D. Lock change
Key broke off flush in the back gate cylinder one wet evening. Extracted, regreased, new euro fitted in under 30 minutes. £79.

Ayesha N. Key extraction
Patio multipoint on the conservatory had been clicking for half a year. Avocet gearbox swapped in around 90 minutes. Door slides like new now.
