Lock Repairs
We repair all types of locks, from modern composite door mechanisms to Victorian-era antiques. Our engineers use lathes and milling machines to recreate obsolete parts, restoring functionality without full replacement. This service extends the life of heritage locks while maintaining security standards for residential and commercial properties.
Key Cutting
Our computerised key machines produce high-security replacements for all lock types, including safes and UPVC doors. We cut keys to code or by hand when originals are lost, using blanks from leading manufacturers. This service ensures precise duplication for both modern and historic locking systems.
Master Key Systems
We design multi-level systems allowing hierarchical access control for commercial buildings. Our bespoke solutions accommodate simple two-tier setups or complex configurations with grand master keys. Systems are assembled in-house for rapid installation and future scalability.
Emergency Exit Hardware
We install panic bars and push pads meeting BS EN 1125 and BS EN 179 standards. Our technicians ensure compliance with UK safety regulations for public and private buildings. This service includes risk assessments and hardware upgrades to prevent non-compliant installations.

Our wireless alarm systems use channel-hopping technology for reliable security without cabling. Features include mobile app notifications and pet-tolerant motion sensors. Installation completes in half a day with options for visual verification through integrated cameras.
