Lock replacement & upgrades — without the upsell.

New keys after a move, an upgrade your insurer asks for, or a cylinder that owes you nothing — replaced with the right lock, not the dearest one. Three honest tiers, one fixed quote, and a straight answer if you don't need any of it.

Payment at completion — never before we start, never chased after.You'll have your price in writing before we set off.

If a cheaper fix will hold, we tell you

Not every tired lock needs replacing. When a service or a realignment will genuinely hold, we quote the repair instead — both numbers in front of you, your call. That is the test every recommendation below has already passed. See lock repair →

Honest options, fixed first

Three honest tiers — priced before we start, not after.

Which tier you need depends on your door, your insurance wording and what is on the other side of it. We recommend in plain English; you decide.

Standard cylinder

Day · 8am–6pm
from £99· the exact cylinder is named and priced before we fit it
Evening · 6pm–midnight
from £119
  • A quality euro or rim cylinder — you choose the grade
  • Right for internal doors and low-risk doors
  • New keys for everyone, old keys dead the moment we leave

Best when: you need keys changed, not security raised.

Insurance-rated mortice lock

quoted per door after a quick survey
  • The kitemarked five-lever standard many insurers require on wooden final-exit doors
  • Often a condition of a claim paying out — we check your policy wording with you
  • Fitted neatly into the existing door wherever possible

Best when: your policy small print mentions five-lever locks and your door predates it.

Round numbers, total price — no VAT added — fixed in your quote before we start. You'll have your price in writing before we set off. See the full price list →

Asked every week

Honest answers, before you call.

How do I know you won't sell me more than I need?

Because the recommendation comes with its reasoning attached: which tier, why, and what your insurance wording actually requires — in plain English, before you approve anything. If a cheaper fix will hold, we quote that instead. The written quote names the exact lock, so you can look it up yourself before saying yes.

Will you make a mess of my door?

No — neat fitting is half the trade. The new lock goes into the existing cut-outs wherever possible, and if the door needs any adjustment we tell you before, not after. We test every key with you watching and leave the door cleaner than we found it.

Will my insurance accept the new lock?

If your policy specifies a lock standard, we fit to it — and the lock's rating is named on your itemised invoice, which is exactly what a claims handler asks to see. Have the policy wording handy when we quote and we'll match it line by line.

Can I get extra keys?

Yes — tell us how many when we quote and they're cut, counted and folded into the same fixed price. For restricted or dimple keys we'll tell you honestly where copies can and can't be cut later.

We've just moved in — should we replace everything?

Change the locks you can't account for keys to — previous owners, their trades, their agents all had copies at some point. A whole-house cylinder change is usually cheaper than people fear, and we'll tell you which doors genuinely need it and which don't.

From this exact job

What people say afterwards.

George was fantastic. He replied super quick even late at night, came next day to do the job and all for a very good price. He explained everything to me, took his time making sure everything was perfect and fixed issues we weren’t even aware of with our doors. He made me feel much more secure in the security of our house. Couldn’t be happier with the service and would definitely recommend to anyone! Great website as well :)
