What services do you offer in Croydon?

Lockouts, lock changes, uPVC door and window repairs, burglary repairs, key extractions, and security upgrades. Both residential and small commercial work across CR.

Do you fit British Standard locks?

Yes. BS3621 mortice locks and TS007 3-star cylinders are standard fits, which is what most home insurers ask for.

Will my insurer accept the work?

Every job comes with an itemised invoice listing the lock standards and parts used. Most major UK insurers accept these without question.

Can you match new locks to one key?

Yes, multiple cylinders can be keyed alike so one key opens front, back, and side doors. Useful for the older Edwardian semis around Croydon with three or four entry points.

Do you do domestic only or commercial too?

Both. Shop fronts, small offices, and HMOs are regular work, alongside the residential side.

What payment methods are accepted?

Card on the doorstep, contactless, Apple Pay, or bank transfer. Cash also fine if preferred.

All engineers are DBS checked, fully insured, and ID is shown on arrival. You can call the office to verify the engineer's name before letting them in.

What Our Customers Say

Composite door wouldn't latch properly after a bad storm. Realigned the keeps and replaced one hinge. £89 and properly sorted.

uPVC handle had snapped off, door jammed shut with my mum inside the kitchen. Engineer was there in 25 minutes from South Norwood, replaced handle and adjusted the alignment.

Tom W. uPVC door repair
Key snapped in the back door at 7am before work. Got it out, no damage to the lock, charged £65. On with my day.

Bent key broke off in the front door, half inside the cylinder. Engineer dug it out with picks, no drill needed. Quick visit, fair price.
