I regularly repair and replace locks from leading manufacturers including Yale, ERA, Union, Chubb, Lockmaster, Winkhaus, GU, Millenco, Avantis and Fuhr.

Where required, replacement locks can be supplied to British Standard and insurance-approved specifications, including anti-snap and high-security options.

A Recent Locksmith Job In Orpington

Recently I was called to a property in Petts Wood where the homeowner could no longer lock their composite front door. The Lockmaster multipoint locking mechanism had failed internally, leaving the property insecure.

After diagnosing the fault, I replaced the failed gearbox, serviced the locking system and realigned the door. The customer avoided the expense of a complete lock replacement and had their door fully secure again the same day.

Faulty multipoint locks, worn gearboxes and dropped doors are some of the most common problems I encounter on uPVC and composite doors throughout Orpington.
