  • Lock Changes & Replacements Moving in? Lost a key? Tenant changeover? We'll change every lock that needs it, the same day.
  • Anti-Snap Cylinder Upgrades Lock snapping is one of the most common burglary methods in the UK. We fit anti-snap, anti-bump, anti-pick cylinders that meet TS007 3-Star standard.
  • BS3621 British Standard Locks The locks your insurance policy almost certainly requires. We fit them correctly and provide certification for your insurer.
  • Smart Locks & Keyless Entry Yale, Ultion, Nuki and more. Modern, app-controlled, but installed with the same physical security standards as a traditional lock.
  • Window Locks & Sash Jammers Often overlooked, often the easiest way in. We secure ground-floor windows and patio doors to insurance-grade standard.
  • Home Security Audits A full walk-around of your property identifying weak points and giving you a written, no-pressure quote for fixing them.
Just Moved In?

The first thing every new homeowner should do.

You don't know how many copies of your front door key are floating around. The previous owner doesn't either. Past contractors, neighbours, estate agents, ex-partners — keys get cut and forgotten about.

The single best security investment you can make on day one is a full lock change. We do it most days of the week across Kent, usually for less than people expect.

  • Same-Day Service Booked in the morning, done by the afternoon. We don't keep new homeowners waiting.
  • Insurance-Compliant BS3621 certification provided in writing for your home insurance records.
  • Fixed Price Up-Front Quoted per door before we arrive. No surprises, no upsells.
  • 5 Keys As Standard Most locksmiths give you 3. We supply 5 keys per cylinder so the whole household has one.

Lock snapping is one of the most common burglary methods in the UK — the intruder snaps the cylinder in half and opens the door in seconds. Anti-snap cylinders are specifically designed to resist this. If your home has euro-profile cylinders (most uPVC and composite doors do), upgrading to anti-snap is strongly recommended.

BS3621 is the British Standard for thief-resistant locks. Most UK home insurance policies require your external doors to have BS3621-compliant locks for your cover to be valid. We fit them to standard and provide certification for your insurer.

Yes. We install smart locks from Yale, Ultion, Nuki and other brands. They're fitted with the same physical security standards as a traditional lock, but with the convenience of app control, keyless entry, and remote access.
