Which lock do you need?
Landlords with converted flats in Brighton and Hove, and new owners in Lewes or Seaford, can have the locks changed as soon as the keys change hands.
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 Brighton 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 Brighton
Salt spray corrodes locks along the Brighton, Hove and Worthing seafronts, and the many converted flats and rentals mean locks are often changed when tenants move.

Lock change in Brighton: common questions
How much is a lock change in Brighton?
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.
Which areas around Brighton do you cover?
Every BN postcode on the mainland, plus nearby towns such as Hove, Worthing, Lewes, Shoreham-by-Sea, Saltdean, Rottingdean. If you are not sure, call and we will tell you straight away which engineer can reach you.
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.
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 Worthing and Eastbourne as well as Brighton and Hove?
Yes. Our engineers work across the whole BN area, including Lewes, Worthing, Littlehampton, Eastbourne and the Wealden villages inland.
Do you work on the old timber doors found in Regency terraces?
Yes. Our engineers fit BS3621 mortice locks and rim locks to suit period timber doors, as well as anti-snap cylinders on the uPVC and composite doors of newer homes.
