Upgrade while you change
While we are changing the lock, upgrading to an anti-snap cylinder rated TS007 3-star or SS312 Diamond adds little to the job. We can also key all your doors alike, so one key opens them all.
Questions we are often asked
Can you change the locks so all my doors use one key?
Yes. We can set every new cylinder to the same key.
Do I need to replace the whole lock?
Usually not. On most uPVC and composite doors only the cylinder needs changing, which is quick and keeps the cost down.
Can you change the locks on a business or shop?
Yes. We change locks on shops, offices and commercial premises, and can put them on a master key system.
