Frequently Asked Questions — Bromley
-
Locked out in Bromley right now. How fast can you arrive?
Most BR1 to BR3 calls see an engineer at the door within 20 minutes. Croydon, Orpington and Sidcup are usually 30.
-
Will the door be damaged?
Over 95% of lockouts are non-destructive. The lock is picked or bumped open intact. Drilling is reserved for locks that have already failed.
-
Cost of a Bromley lockout?
£49 to £89 depending on lock type. Composite multipoint doors on BR estates can take a touch longer, but the quote is fixed before the engineer leaves the van.
-
Can you open uPVC and composite doors?
Yes, multipoint uPVC and composite doors are everyday work, especially across the BR4 and BR5 estate stock. Even with a failed gearbox we can usually open without breaking the panel.
-
Lost my keys. Should I change the lock?
If the keys could be in unknown hands we'd suggest a same-visit cylinder swap. Otherwise we open and you keep the existing lock.
-
Key broken in the lock?
Hand the broken half to the engineer. Most extractions take a few minutes and don't need a new lock. Cost is usually under £70.
-
What ID do you need?
Driving licence, recent post addressed to you, tenancy agreement on a phone, or a neighbour vouching for you. Anything that links you to the property.
