How reliable is keyless entry on a busy family home, and can it even be added to the door I already have?

Modern smart locks are well up to daily family use, and most can be added to a door you already have rather than needing a whole new one. We'll check your door suits the model you're considering, fit it properly, set up codes or app access for everyone, then test it thoroughly so it holds up to constant coming and going.

I've just renewed my home insurance and the policy asks for British Standard locks — are you able to fit ones that meet that requirement?

Yes, fitting insurance-approved British Standard locks is something we handle every day, and we carry BS3621-rated deadlocks and nightlatches on the van. Once a lock is fitted we'll show you the kitemark on it so you can see for yourself that it matches what your policy asks for. It's a straightforward way to keep your cover valid and your home properly secured.

When you come out to a worn or sticking lock, how do you work out whether it's worth saving or better off replaced?

We begin by looking at the actual cause rather than assuming the worst, because plenty of stiff or noisy locks simply need adjustment, lubrication or a single worn part swapped out. If the body of the lock is still sound we'll favour a repair, since it keeps things straightforward and preserves what you already have; a replacement is only suggested when the mechanism is genuinely past saving or your security would be at risk. You'll get a clear, no-pressure explanation of our findings before any work goes ahead.

My lock still works fine, I just want the previous keys to stop working — do I really need a full replacement?

Absolutely — if the lock is in good shape, our technician can rekey it right there on your doorstep in Ilford without stripping the door of its existing fittings. The mechanism is adjusted so only your new keys turn it, and everything else stays exactly as it was. It's a tidy way to regain control of who can get in.

Do you repair the multipoint locking strip on uPVC and composite doors, or does the whole door have to be swapped out?

In the great majority of cases the door and frame are perfectly sound and only the locking mechanism has failed, so there's very rarely any need to replace the entire door. We repair or replace the multipoint strip, gearbox, hooks, rollers and cylinder as needed, matching the components to your particular door. Full door replacement is genuinely a last resort, not a starting point for us.

If my locks have been damaged or picked during a burglary, will you fit brand new ones on the spot?

We know how unsettling a burglary is, so our first job is simply making the property safe and getting you back in control. That means changing or repairing the compromised locks, fitting new keys that only you hold, and dealing with any door or frame damage caused during the attempt. If you're claiming on insurance, we can also make sure the work is documented for you.
