Which lock do you need?
New owners in Upminster or Emerson Park, and tenants moving on from a rented home in Dagenham, often want fresh locks so old keys stop working.
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 Romford 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 Romford: common questions
How much is a lock change in Romford?
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.
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 Romford, at the price the engineer confirms with you before starting.
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.
Do you cover Grays, Tilbury and Purfleet as well as Romford?
Yes. The same 24-hour line covers the whole RM postcode area, including Dagenham, Hornchurch, Upminster, Rainham, Grays, Tilbury and Purfleet.
Do you cover the villages around Abridge and Havering-atte-Bower?
Yes. Both fall within the RM postcode area, along with Lambourne End and Stapleford Abbotts. Give us the road and postcode on the call and we will say how soon an engineer can reach you, with a free quote on the phone.
