Frequently Asked Questions — Chickerell
-
How quickly can a locksmith reach me in Chickerell?
Chickerell runs straight into Weymouth, so for most DT3 addresses we are usually with you in 25 to 35 minutes. The estates off the Weymouth road are quickest. We give you a proper ETA for your exact street before an engineer sets off, rather than a vague window.
-
Do you handle the modern uPVC doors on Chickerell's estates?
Yes, that is much of our work here. Chickerell has a lot of modern housing with uPVC and composite doors on multipoint mechanisms and euro cylinders. When the handle lifts but the key will not turn, the gearbox has usually failed, and we carry common mechanisms to repair it the same visit.
-
Can you fit anti-snap cylinders on a Chickerell home?
We can, and it is a sensible upgrade on the newer builds here. Many uPVC and composite doors leave the factory with basic cylinders that snap easily, a known burglary method. We fit TS007 3-star anti-snap cylinders that resist it, and it is quick to do.
-
Are your Chickerell locksmiths DBS checked and insured?
Every engineer we send to Chickerell is DBS checked and carries 2 million pounds of public liability cover. You are letting someone into your home, so it matters they are vetted. ID is shown on arrival and our cover protects your property while we work.
-
Which areas near Chickerell do you cover?
As well as Chickerell itself we cover the neighbouring Weymouth districts and out toward Charlestown and the coast, all within DT3. Because Chickerell sits right on the Weymouth edge we reach the surrounding streets quickly. Ring us if you are unsure and we will confirm.
What Our Customers Say
-
Our uPVC front door on the estate would not lock, the handle just lifted with nothing happening. He had the gearbox on the van and fixed it within the hour, 98 pounds. Spot on.
-
Locked out coming back from Weymouth with the shopping. He was here in under half an hour, opened the door without damage, 60 pounds. Nice and quick.
-
Wanted anti-snap cylinders fitted on both doors after reading about lock snapping. Two done for 118 pounds and he explained the difference clearly. Feel a lot safer now.
-
Our composite door had dropped and started catching the frame, then the key stopped turning. He realigned the hinges and replaced the mechanism, 112 pounds. Shuts like new.
-
Moved into a new build and wanted the locks changed as the developer keys were floating about. Both doors done and keyed alike for 120 pounds. The phone quote was the price I paid.
-
Key snapped in the back door one evening. He extracted it and replaced the cylinder, 76 pounds, and did not charge extra for it being after hours. Grateful for that.
