Frequently Asked Questions — West London
-
How quickly to a W6 lockout?
Most W3, W4, W6 and W12 addresses see an engineer in 15 to 20 minutes. Ealing and outer W5 add a few minutes depending on the A4.
-
Cost?
Most non-destructive entries are £49 to £69. Anti-social hours match the day rate.
-
Will the lock be drilled?
Drilling only happens when a cylinder is internally damaged or seized. Modern domestic locks open with picks, bumps or letterbox tools without a mark.
-
Lost keys completely?
Replacing the cylinder is safer than just gaining entry, especially if the lost set could identify the address. Options discussed before charging beyond the entry fee.
-
Let me into a flat I rent?
Yes, with proof of residence. Driving licence, recent post or a tenancy reference. Engineers won't open a door for anyone who can't show they belong inside.
-
Smart locks?
Yale Conexis, Ultion Nuki and similar are routine across W postcodes. Battery failure and bricked firmware are the common faults we see.
-
Cover Hammersmith and Acton too?
Yes. Hammersmith, Ealing, Acton and Chiswick are all part of the daily route, plus the smaller patches between.
