When to change the cylinder
There are several common reasons: a lost key, a new tenant, a cylinder that is stiff or jams, or simply wanting a step up in security. In any of these cases, a change is worth considering.
Even if the lock still works, an old or worn cylinder should be checked, because it affects the security of the whole door.
Size and compatibility with the door
Not every cylinder fits every door. The size, the type and compatibility with the escutcheon, if there is one, determine which model can be fitted.
That is why we check the door at your home before suggesting anything. This way we make sure the cylinder really fits, not just on paper.
Brands we work with
We fit security lock cylinders from brands we use regularly, including DISEC, KABA, M&C, ABUS, SAG, TOKOZ, AMIG and TEDEE.
We choose the model according to the type of door and how you will use it, without claiming that any cylinder is invulnerable: what we do offer is the most suitable option for your case.
Quote, invoice and guarantee
Before fitting anything, we assess your lock and give you a free quote. A cylinder change is always quoted before we start, and work begins with your agreement.
We email you the invoice with VAT included. Our labour is guaranteed, and the hardware carries the manufacturer's warranty.
Emergencies and booked appointments
If you need the change right now, we handle emergencies 24 hours a day, every day, including public holidays. At night or on a public holiday a surcharge may apply, which is explained before we start.
If it is not urgent, you can also book an appointment for the day and time that suit you best.
Need to change the “guardas” or the lock plate on your door? It is the same as changing the cylinder or the lock: we do it at your home, and we also repair locks that stick, feel stiff or do not close properly. Free quote before we start.
