Which lock do you need?

Landlords in Deptford, Brockley and Catford can have locks changed between tenants, and new owners in Sydenham, Blackheath or Eltham 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 Southeast 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 Southeast London: common questions

How much is a lock change in Southeast 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.

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.

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 Southeast London, at the price the engineer confirms with you before starting.

Do you cover the whole SE postcode area, from Bermondsey to Eltham and Sydenham?

Yes. Our engineers cover Southeast London from Bermondsey and Greenwich out to Lewisham, Catford, Eltham, Sydenham and Woolwich.

I am a landlord in Lewisham or Deptford. Can you change the locks between tenants at short notice?

Yes. Landlords can book a lock change for a flat or a house, and the engineer fits BS3621 locks or anti-snap cylinders to suit the door.
