Which lock do you need?
Landlords and new owners in Lincoln often want fresh keys all round, particularly in rented terraces near the university.
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 Lincoln 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 Lincoln: common questions
How much is a lock change in Lincoln?
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.
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.
How quickly can someone get to me?
An engineer is typically with you in 15 to 20 minutes, and within 30 minutes at most. We give you a time on the phone based on where the nearest engineer is right now.
Do you cover the villages and market towns around Lincoln, such as Market Rasen and Horncastle?
Yes. The 24/7 line covers Lincoln and the wider LN area, including Saxilby, Nettleham, Market Rasen, Horncastle, Louth and Mablethorpe. Journeys to the Wolds and the coast can be longer, so we confirm the arrival time for your address when you call.
Can you fit a lock to an old door on Steep Hill or in the cathedral quarter?
Yes. The engineer checks the age and thickness of the door and suggests a lock to suit it, usually a BS3621 mortice lock for an external timber door.
