So if the only lock on your door or the only lock you use is a nightlatch then please make sure it’s a high security lock.

When choosing as new door most people go for the modern multipoint locking mechanism great security and low maintenance however the mechanism should be oiled yearly to keep it running smoothly if you look down the edge of the door there is usually a picture of a oil can demonstrating where to spray lubricant but if your not sure just call for free advice we will be happy to help prevention is always better than cure!

The euro cylinder is the most popular lock and found all new builds and more than half of older properties usually on upvc doors but not all the cylinders are the same security the highest security is the 3 star cylinder with are anti pick anti drill snap safe they come all sizes and easily fitted so your thinking of upgrading to 3 star locks.

When you’re insurance company asks if your locks are BS3621 most people don’t have a clue and I get a lot of phone calls asking me how to tell so the easiest way is to look on the faceplate and lock for the British standard kite mark it looks like a heart if you can’t see on then your lock is probably not insurance approved so not insured with most companies so be careful! If you need any advice on this or any other lock enquiries please call us on 01904 625635 ask for Shane

As the name implies, a locksmith is a professional who has been trained in working with locks and keys. We can replace locks, create duplicate keys, and most of the time gain access without damaging the lock at all. Here are some reasons you might need the services of a locksmith.

The majority of the calls we get are because keys to a home, office or vehicle have been lost. These situations are usually resolved with a professional locksmith gaining access and replacing the lock. In the instance of a vehicle, we gain access using lock picks, then using various tools we’re able to make a new car / van key.

When you aren’t sure whether your keys have been accidentally misplaced or stolen, you should contact a professional locksmith who can help with replacing the lock with a new set of keys, or even upgrading the lock entirely to make your home or office even more secure. In the instance of cars or vans, we’re able to wipe old keys from the system and or change the locks.


While it’s nice to think that moving into a new home there’s no chance of security issues, the reality is that the previous owners could have copies of the keys, distributed to their family members over time. So it’s always worth considering having the locks changed or upgraded by a professional locksmith.

One of the most common reasons you might need the services of an emergency locksmith is finding yourself locked out of your home, office or car. Absentmindedly taking out the rubbish, or checking the post, you could find the door closing behind you and the lock engaging. A professional locksmith will help regain access to whatever it may be, safely and securely.
