Which lock do you need?
Moving into a rented flat in Finsbury Park, taking over a terrace in Stoke Newington or letting a property in Haringey or Enfield: each is a good moment to change the locks.
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 North London 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 North London: common questions
How much is a lock change in North London?
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.
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 North London, at the price the engineer confirms with you before starting.
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 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.
Do you cover Finchley, Southgate, Edmonton and Wood Green as well as Islington?
Yes. The same 24-hour line covers the N postcode area, including Islington, Highgate, Finchley, Barnet, Southgate, Edmonton and Wood Green.
Can you help if the street door of my converted house is the problem, rather than my own flat door?
We can repair, re-key or replace the lock on your own flat door, and the engineer confirms the price before starting. A shared street door often belongs to the freeholder or managing agent, so tell us on the call which door has the fault.
