3 Things Every CR3 Homeowner Should Know
Check Your Lock Before You Move In
If you've just moved into a Caterham property, change the locks before you do anything else. Estate agents, previous tenants, builders, and removal firms may all hold copies. A lock change from £135 is the cheapest security decision you'll make.
uPVC Doors on the Hill Are Cylinder-Snapping Targets
Standard euro cylinders on uPVC doors — common on 1980s–2000s Caterham on the Hill properties — can be snapped in under 30 seconds with basic tools. Upgrading to a TS007 3-star anti-snap cylinder is the single most effective deterrent.
Don't Try to Force a Jammed Lock Yourself
A stiff or jammed lock in Caterham's older period properties often means worn pins or a misaligned door — not that the lock is broken. Forcing it can snap the key and double the repair cost. Call us first — a diagnosis call costs nothing.
