When You Need Us

Common Reasons for a Lock Change in South London

From moving day to lost keys, we cover every situation where your lock needs replacing — fast.

Most Common

Moving Into a New Home

Previous owners, estate agents or tradespeople may still hold a key. A same-day lock change on moving day gives you complete peace of mind from the start.

Security Risk

Lost or Stolen Keys

If your keys are missing, someone could have access to your home. We gain entry and change your lock the same day — so only you hold the keys.

Insurance Approved

Insurance Upgrade Required

Your insurer requires a BS3621 or TS007 3-star rated lock? We assess your door and fit the correct standard, with documentation on request.

Preventive Fix

Worn, Stiff or Unreliable Lock

If your key sticks, the cylinder is stiff, or the lock regularly fails — replace it before it traps you outside. We carry stock for same-day fitting.

Landlord Service

End of Tenancy — Landlords

Fast, professional lock changes between tenancies across South London. Usually attended same day or next morning. All locks guaranteed 12 months.

Urgent Response

After an Attempted Break-In

A damaged or forced lock must be replaced immediately. We fit high-security replacements to restore proper security fast, with a full assessment of your door’s condition.

Lock Standards

Insurance-Approved Locks — BS3621 & TS007 3-Star

Most UK home insurance policies require a British Standard lock on your main door. There are two key standards you need to know about:

BS3621 — 5-Lever Mortice Deadlock

The minimum standard for 5-lever mortice deadlocks on timber doors. Look for the BSI Kitemark on the lock body. Required by most insurers on older timber and sash doors.

TS007 3-Star — Euro Cylinder

The current standard for euro cylinder locks. A 3-star rating means the cylinder resists drilling, picking AND snap attacks. Required by most insurers on uPVC and composite doors.

Not sure what your insurer requires? Call us before booking — we'll advise on the correct standard for your door type and policy at no charge.

Before You Book

3 Things to Know Before Your Lock Change

Quick guidance so you get the right lock first time — and avoid common pitfalls.

1

Know Your Door Type

uPVC and composite doors take euro cylinders. Older timber doors typically have mortice locks. Not sure? Take a photo of your lock and mention it when you call — we’ll confirm the correct type before attending.

2

Check Your Insurance Policy

Many insurers specify a BS3621 or TS007 3-star lock on your main door. Check your policy schedule before we attend — we’ll make sure the lock we fit meets or exceeds that requirement, and can provide a receipt for your insurer.

3

Get a Fixed Price Upfront

Always agree the total price before work starts — including the lock, labour and VAT. We do this as standard. If any locksmith refuses to give you a fixed quote before attending, call someone else.

Watch Out for Rogue Locksmiths

Some locksmiths advertise low prices, then charge hundreds more once they’re at your door. Red flags: no fixed price upfront, no business address, reluctance to show a trade card. We’re fully transparent — you get a fixed price before we start, every time.

FAQ

Lock Change South London — Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know before booking.

A standard euro cylinder lock change starts from £135, which includes the lock and fitting. BS3621 5-lever mortice locks start from £135, and anti-snap TS007 upgrades from £200. We give you a fixed price before we touch anything — no surprises on the invoice.
