FREE SECURITY ADVICE
  • Fit key-operated window locks to all downstairs windows, those which can’t be seen from the street and easily accessible upstairs window, eg. Those above a flat roof or by a drainpipe.
  • Even small windows such as skylights or bathroom fanlights need locks – a thief can get through any gap larger than a human head.
  • Never leave a spare key in a convenient hiding place such as under the doormat or in a flower pot – a thief will look there first.
  • If you’ve moved into a new house, consider changing the back and front door locks – other people may have keys that fit.
  • Never leave a garage or garden shed unlocked, especially if it has a connecting door to the house – a thief could get in and work on the inner door in privacy.
  • Make sure the doors and frames are strong and in good condition. Doors should be made of solid core construction – 44mm thick.
  • Glass panels on or around the door are especially vulnerable, so replace them with laminated glass.
  • Fit back and front doors with a five-lever mortice deadlock – and use it.
  • Fit all exterior doors – top and bottom – with bolts. Remember to fit all security devices with strong screws or bolts.
  • Get specialist advice on fitting locks to patio doors.
  • Fit both french doors, top and bottom, with a security mortice lock and mortice bolt.
  • Doctor Locks can also provide master keying and keyed alike services. This saves on bunches of keys to carry.

    We can change, repair or install new locks to wood, aluminium, UPVC and steel, windows and doors.
