You don’t need to know the name of the lock. Tell us which door needs attention and whether you need access restored today or a planned change before a handover.
Not every key comes back at the end of a tenancy. If you want to change the locks before the next handover, list the entrances involved and arrange approval with the owner or managing agent. We can check the fittings and discuss suitable replacements.
The door thickness, existing cut-outs and lock furniture all affect the choice of hardware. We assess the fitting and talk through compatible options, including British Standard locks where appropriate. Tell us about any specific requirements before we choose a product.
Locked out with the keys inside, or has the lock stopped turning? Tell us whether the door was pulled shut or locked with a key. We assess the entry method and explain any need for replacement parts before carrying out the work.
A latch that catches or a key that needs persuading does not always mean replacing the whole lock. We check how the door closes and how the fitting operates, then explain whether an adjustment, repair or replacement is appropriate.
Please distinguish your flat entrance from the communal front door when you enquire. For a shared fitting, arrange the appropriate authorisation and tell us who will provide access. We discuss the work with the person responsible for approving it.
For an office, shop or managed property, we can discuss lock repairs, replacement cylinders and key arrangements. Tell us which doors need attention, the access times and who can approve the job so we can agree a practical scope of work.

Moving home or changing tenants
Start with a short list of doors and the keys you have. Include any stiff lock or catching latch reported by the outgoing occupier. That gives us a clearer picture of the work than simply asking for a new front door lock.
For a flat, keep your own entrance and the communal door separate in the enquiry. Arrange who will meet us, who can approve the work and who will receive the keys afterwards. Photos of the existing lock furniture help us discuss a replacement that suits the door.
