Locksmith Services
Planned locksmith work for homes and small businesses.
When you need
a locksmith now
If you are locked out, unable to secure a door or dealing with a failed mechanism, Black Security can help with a prompt, professional response.
Lock Changes & Repairs
Upgrading/repairing mechanisms; including multi-point locking systems, both domestic and commercial.
Door Alignment
Without proper alignment of doors, you risk compromising the security of your home and/or business. Our locksmiths can help to ensure this security is properly functioning, so that all other mechanisms are also secured.
Burglary Repairs
Secure your property after a break-in with temporary boarding, new locks and advice on improving future security.
General Maintenance
Maintenance on locks can help prevent any unneccesary costs, lockouts or compromised security features. Our locksmiths can help keep your home and/or business secured.
Refresh and repair
tired locks
Locks wear out over time, and situations change — from moving house to changing tenants or losing track of spare keys.
New locks after a move
Take control of who has keys to your new property by replacing the main cylinders and, where needed, upgrading to British Standard options that are more secure and often preferred by insurers.
Repairing stiff or sticking locks
If a key has become difficult to turn or a door needs lifting to lock, we can often repair or adjust the existing hardware before a full replacement is needed.
Replacing damaged hardware
Handles, cylinders, keeps and multi-point mechanisms can all be swapped out when they finally give up, bringing doors and windows back into reliable use.
Landlord & letting support
We help landlords and agents with lock changes between tenancies and resolving access issues quickly to keep properties secure and lettable.
Specialist help
for modern doors
Many homes use uPVC or composite doors with multi-point locking systems. When these fail, doors can become difficult to operate or refuse to lock at all.
Multi-point lock repairs
We diagnose faults in the strip, gearbox or cylinder and repair or replace the affected components.
Realignment & adjustment
Weather and settlement can cause doors to move out of alignment. Careful adjustment can restore smooth operation and proper locking.
Cylinder upgrades
Where appropriate we can fit anti-snap, anti-pick cylinders to improve resistance to forced entry techniques.
Secure again
after a break-in
A burglary or attempted break-in is upsetting and disruptive. We help you make the property secure again and reduce the risk of a repeat incident.
Making things safe, then stronger
We can provide short-term securing of damaged doors and frames, replace compromised locks and, once things have settled, discuss sensible upgrades such as stronger cylinders, additional deadlocks or changes to how keys are managed.
Help for
local businesses
Shops, small offices and other local businesses rely on working locks to keep staff, stock and equipment secure.
Practical locksmith services for business
We assist with lock changes when staff or tenants move on, resolving access problems with communal doors, and improving the security of back doors and stores. Our focus is on minimising disruption while keeping your premises secure.
