Services
uPVC door repairs
We specialise in uPVC door repairs for mechanical failures including faulty hinges, handles, and lock mechanisms. Our engineers diagnose issues with multipoint locking systems and perform precision adjustments or component replacements to restore full functionality without requiring full door replacement. With access to extensive parts inventories, we resolve most common door operation problems during the first visit, typically within 90 minutes.
Anti-snap lock installation
Our anti-snap lock installations use TS007 3-star certified cylinders that resist modern burglary techniques. We fit Brisant Ultion and Avocet ABS systems that maintain security even when physically attacked. These locks integrate with existing door hardware while providing enhanced protection against lock snapping and bumping methods that compromise standard euro cylinders.
Emergency lock changes
We provide urgent lock replacement for lost or stolen keys, offering same-day appointments to secure properties. Our 30-year crime prevention expertise informs recommendations for optimal security levels, with technicians carrying essential equipment to complete full cylinder replacements within 45 minutes while ensuring compliance with British security standards.
Window security solutions
Our window security systems include safety film application that prevents glass shattering during break-in attempts and solar control films that regulate temperatures. We install sash jammers and restrictors that physically prevent forced entry while maintaining legitimate window functionality, with white and brown finish options available for discreet integration.
Home security assessments
We conduct thorough property security evaluations identifying vulnerabilities in existing door and window systems. Our surveys consider local crime patterns and recommend cost-effective upgrades that often qualify for home insurance discounts. Assessments include detailed explanations of recommended solutions and implementation timelines.
