Which lock do you need?

Landlords and holiday-let owners in Boscombe and Southbourne can have locks changed between guests or tenants, and new homeowners in Poole or Christchurch 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 Bournemouth 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.

Locksmiths who know Bournemouth

Salt-laden sea air along the Bournemouth, Poole and Christchurch coast corrodes exposed locks, handles and window hardware, so cylinders and fittings wear out sooner than they do inland.

Lock change in Bournemouth: common questions

How much is a lock change in Bournemouth?

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.

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.

How does pricing work?

Tell us the door, the lock and what has happened, and we give you a free quote on the phone. When the engineer arrives, they check the lock and confirm the final price with you before starting any work. Nothing is done without your agreement. A £49 assessment fee applies only if you cancel after the engineer has arrived.

Which areas around Bournemouth do you cover?

Every BH postcode on the mainland, plus nearby towns such as Poole, Christchurch, Ferndown, Wimborne, Boscombe, Westbourne. If you are not sure, call and we will tell you straight away which engineer can reach you.

Do you charge a callout fee?

No callout fee when you go ahead with the job. If you decide not to go ahead after the engineer has arrived, a £49 assessment fee covers the visit. Otherwise you pay for the job itself in Bournemouth, at the price the engineer confirms with you before starting.

Do you cover Poole, Christchurch and Wimborne as well as Bournemouth?

Yes. Our engineers work across the BH area, including Poole, Parkstone, Christchurch, Ferndown, Wimborne and the Purbeck towns.

Can you help with a lock that has corroded from sea air on a seafront flat?

Yes. Salt air is hard on locks, hinges and window hardware near the coast, and our engineers replace worn or corroded cylinders and fit BS3621 and anti-snap locks.
