Frequently Asked Questions — West London
-
How much for a lock change in West London?
Cylinder swap with anti-snap from £89. BS3621 mortice supply and fit £119 to £159. Banham-grade upgrades push higher because of the brand premium.
-
Should I upgrade the lock on a Victorian terrace?
If the cylinder is over fifteen years old or doesn't carry the three-star kitemark, an upgrade is worthwhile. Most Hammersmith and Chiswick terraces still hold their original mortices, which can stay alongside a new euro cylinder.
-
Banham locks fitted?
Yes. Banham M2002 and L2002 deadlocks are common in high-value W postcode stock. We fit and key them like any other patented system.
-
Anti-snap cylinders?
Yes. Brisant Ultion and Avocet ABS three-star on the van. Both resist snapping, picking and bumping with manufacturer guarantees.
-
Can all locks be keyed alike across a flat?
Yes. Cylinders rekeyed or supplied matched for front, back, side and garage doors.
-
How long for a lock change?
Single cylinder 20 to 30 minutes. Full mortice swap 40 to 60. Keyed-alike sets of three or four locks usually finish inside two hours.
-
Will the new lock damage my mansion-block door?
We fit to existing morticing wherever possible and work around the existing ironmongery so the period look is preserved.
