Upgrade Your ERA Lock Security

If your existing ERA lock is older or no longer provides the level of security you require, upgrading can significantly improve protection.

Popular upgrades include:

Ultion WXM

One of the highest security cylinders available with advanced anti-snap protection.

Ultion 3 Star Plus

Designed to provide enhanced protection against common attack methods.

ABS Ultimate

High-security cylinder featuring active anti-snap technology.

TS007 Security Handles

Additional protection for euro profile cylinders and multipoint doors.

These upgrades can help improve security while maintaining compatibility with your existing locking system.

A Recent ERA Lock Repair In Orpington

Recently I attended a customer in Petts Wood whose ERA multipoint lock had stopped functioning correctly.

The customer found the handle increasingly difficult to lift and eventually the door could no longer be locked securely.

After diagnosing the fault, I identified a failed gearbox within the ERA locking mechanism. I replaced the faulty component, serviced the lock and adjusted the door alignment to reduce strain on the mechanism.

The repair was completed during the same visit and the customer avoided the expense of replacing the entire locking system.
