    Lockouts, lock changes, uPVC door repairs, burglary repairs, key extractions and security upgrades across all RM postcodes.

  • Lock change pricing?

    £89 to £189 fitted, depending on whether you go for a basic euro or a 3-star anti-snap to BS3621 standard. Includes parts, labour and certificate.

  • Insurance approved locks?

    Yes. BS3621 mortice locks and 3-star Kitemarked cylinders, accepted by every major UK insurer.

    Yes, on standard UK profiles. A clean original key copies on the doorstep from the van's machine.

  • Hidden callout fees?

    None. The phone quote is the doorstep total, including travel inside the RM area.

  • Landlords and lettings?

    Daily across Romford. Tenant changeovers, lost-key replacements and emergency boardups all come with proper paperwork emailed afterwards.

  • Are anti-snap cylinders worth fitting?

    Yes. The 3-star Kitemarked version defeats the snap-attack technique used in most opportunist break-ins. Worth the small extra cost on any front door.
