Insights into UPVC Locking and Call Centre Locksmith companies I recently went to a client who had contacted a locksmithing site off the internet and had quoted £80 per lock to change on a patio door set.Now firstly £80 per lock is more than expensive. I'd call that down right scandalous. i'd charge £70 for the two. That's a massive £90 difference.Secondly they had quoted without even seeing what the problem was in the first place. It turned out that both mechanisms were broken and needed changing. |

 Forget cheap locks. In my experience cheap locks don't last or are very easy to bypass or destroy and in the long run don't last the distance. Good quality locks don't have to break the bank.
Key4lock only fit quality locks as standard and all our locking products come with a years guarantee. That means that if there is a problem with any locks or mechanisms that we fit we'll return and fix or replace them at no additional cost to yourselves.
We can say this because our products are quality assured and we have a conscientious approach to our workmanship. |

 Lock Fitting
and Replacement
If you are locked out, have lost your keys, had the misfortune to be burgled,
or simply need to replace your existing locks to British Standard BS3621:2004
in order to meet your insurance requirements. Affordable Locksmith can help.
The fitting of door locks, window locks and other forms of additional security
will help to keep burglars out. In 20% of burglaries thieves gain entry through
open doors and windows, so not only do you want the fitting of good, strong
locks but you should make sure your doors and windows remain closed and locked. |

 I was recently called out to a lockout in Clydebank.
A gentleman was locked out of his house, but he had the key to get himself back
in. He had a UPVC door. The mechanism was of the type that locked without
turning the key.
You locked the door by lifting the handles engaging the
mechanism and deadlocking the lock. The handles could not then be depressed. To
open the door you needed the key. This disengaged the mechanism allowing the
handles to be depressed and opening the door.
On arrival I had him back into the comfort of his home
within twenty minutes. |

Finding a
replacement upvc door lock can be hard work if you don't know where to
look. You won't find them at the local diy store and more often than
not, the lock may be obsolete or requiring an upgrade from latch only
to latch and deadbolt. I.E. Ferco 2 wedgebolts, latch only upgraded to
Ferco 2 wedge bolts latch and deadbolt.
Most people simply give in and just buy a new door
(costing on average £700). But you don't have to.
Call us right away on0141 280 1999and we'll have a much better chance of fixing the problem on the spot. |

Today I would like to talk about your home security, or
more particularly, double glazing door or upvc or composit door security. A very
common job of Reliable Locksmiths is to adjust, open or replace a broken upvc door lock
for a customer. Many people don't (or won't) touch these, as they can seem very
confusing for the average DIYer.
This means that some
"locksmiths" can charge way over the odds to fix. I've even heard of
some people being charged more for a new pvc door mechanism than they
originally did for the door! |
