Which lock do you need?
Students leaving a shared house in Uplands, or a new owner in Sketty, often want fresh locks so the 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 Swansea 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 Swansea: common questions
How much is a lock change in Swansea?
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.
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 Gower, Mumbles and the towns beyond Swansea?
Yes. The same 24-hour line covers the whole SA postcode area, from Mumbles and Gower to Neath, Port Talbot, Llanelli and Carmarthen, and on to Tenby, Haverfordwest, Cardigan and Aberaeron.
Can sea air really seize a lock near the seafront?
It can. Salt in the air corrodes cylinders, handles and hinges over time, so a lock near the shore may stiffen or stick sooner than one inland. An engineer can free off or replace the affected parts and check the rest of the door while there.
