Lock Outs in Barbican
Keys left inside, keys lost on a night out, or a door that slammed shut behind you? Lock outs are the most common reason people need a locksmith in Barbican. Our lockout services use non destructive entry methods to open doors wherever possible, so you regain access quickly and your lock can usually still be used afterwards. Find out more about being locked out of a flat or locked out of a house.
Lock Changes and Lost Keys
After lost keys, stolen keys, a tenant moving out or a relationship ending, lock changes protect your property from anyone who might still have a copy of your keys. We carry out lock changes on the spot with British Standard cylinders and locks for front and back doors, as part of our same-day services, and supply new keys before we leave. See our emergency lock change London service.
Door Lock Repairs
Keys that won’t turn, latches that won’t catch, doors that won’t shut fully and worn mortice locks can all be fixed. Our lock repairs focus on saving the lock you have, and we only recommend a lock replacement when a repair won’t last. Most lock repairs are done in a single visit, and our locksmith work is tested on the door before we leave.
Key Extraction
A key snapped inside the lock? Don’t try to fix it yourself, as you can push the broken piece deeper. Our locksmith uses specialist key extraction tools to remove the broken key, then repairs or replaces the cylinder if needed. Read more about a key stuck in a cylinder lock.
Burglary Repairs
After a break-in, your first priority is safety. Once the police have been called, our locksmith will carry out repairs the same night, replacing damaged locks and making your doors secure again. See our post-break-in support.
Lock Installation and Security Upgrades
From a new night latch to anti-snap cylinders and BS3621 mortice locks, our lock installation service helps safeguard your home or office. Security upgrades are one of the simplest ways to improve your security and meet insurance requirements. Ask for a home security assessment and our locksmith will check your doors, windows and locks and recommend sensible security upgrades. Window locks matter too: ground floor windows are a common way into a London property, and our locksmith can fit key-operated locks to most windows.
Key Safe Installation or Code Locks?
A key safe can give carers, family, cleaners or guests access without handing out spare keys. We don’t offer key safe installation ourselves, but if you’re thinking about one, choose a police-approved model and fit it out of sight from the street. For offices, a code lock is often the better option: staff get access with a code instead of keys, and you can change the code when someone leaves. Our locksmith fits and repairs code locks for offices across Barbican.
Communal Entrances and Business Premises
Barbican is home to thousands of flats, many with communal entrances. Good access matters in shared buildings. We repair and replace locks on communal entrances for residents, managing agents and landlords. For commercial customers, we handle office lockouts, lock changes after staff leave and fitting and repairing code locks and other digital systems. Visit our commercial locksmith London page.
