Which lock do you need?
Landlords around Selly Oak and Bournbrook can have the locks changed between student tenancies, and new owners in Moseley or Harborne can do the same on moving day.
uPVC and composite doors use a euro cylinder. We fit anti-snap cylinders, which resist the snapping attack burglars use on cheap cylinders. Timber front doors usually have a nightlatch and a mortice deadlock; for insurance that deadlock should be BS3621.
Most lock changes in Birmingham take 30 to 45 minutes. Common reasons: moving into a new home, lost or stolen keys, a tenant moving out, or a lock that has become stiff and worn.

Lock change in Birmingham: common questions
How much is a lock change in Birmingham?
From £88 supplied and fitted for a standard euro cylinder. BS3621 mortice deadlocks start from £109. The price the engineer confirms includes the lock and the fitting.
Do I need anti-snap locks?
On a uPVC or composite door, we recommend them. Snapping is the most common way in through those doors, and anti-snap cylinders are built to resist it.
Do nights and weekends cost more?
No. The price is the same at 3am on a Sunday as it is at midday on a Tuesday, bank holidays included.
Can you change locks for a landlord or letting agent?
Yes. Between tenants is one of the most common jobs we do. We can fit cylinders keyed alike so one key opens the front and back doors.
Which areas around Birmingham do you cover?
Every B postcode on the mainland, plus nearby towns such as Solihull, Sutton Coldfield, Wolverhampton, West Bromwich, Smethwick, Edgbaston. If you are not sure, call and we will tell you straight away which engineer can reach you.
How do I pay?
When the job is finished. Card, cash or bank transfer, and you get a written receipt you can use for an insurance claim.
Do you cover Sutton Coldfield, Solihull and Redditch as well as the city itself?
Yes. Our engineers work across the whole B postcode area, including Sutton Coldfield, Solihull, Redditch, Tamworth, Bromsgrove and the Black Country towns of West Bromwich and Oldbury.
Can you change the locks on a rented student house in Selly Oak between tenancies?
Yes. Landlords and letting agents can book us to fit new BS3621 and anti-snap cylinders when a new group of tenants moves in.
