Locksmith Recommendation - Elland/Halifax Area?

SallyUK

Hi Everyone

Just our luck, the lock on our front PVC door has gone faulty tonight and we've had a quote for a replacement part of £189 plus £89 per hour labour charge.

Could anyone recommend anyone who might be a bit cheaper at all please?

Thanks,

Sal

That seems very expensive! When we were broken into (when we lived in Elland) we got 2 snap free barrels and 2 sets of handles for £227 which was still abit too dear. I would advise on paying that bit extra though for the snap free locks, after seeing how easy it is to get into a door with euro profile barrels!

I think i might have the answer for you if you don't mind nipping into Brighouse. mmm.home-is.co.uk/ I know this company as the man who owns it is a long time friend (Mark) who been in the busniess since he was 16 year of age which is a long long time for him :rotfl:. He does not fit them himself but supplies all upvc parts to the trade as well as to the retail so worst case is you can get a price for the part you need. However i am sure he will be able to supply a good trademans telephone number for you.

If it's just the lock that broken all you need to do is buy a replacement barrell - takes 10 seconds to fit.

I just bought some from here: http://toughlocks.co.uk/

They're videos on there showing you how to replace the actually lock (not the handle).

If you have a standard uPVC door it is very simple to replace - the locks are about £30 each.

The item being changed by this company is the cylinder not the lock, a new lock strip would be more in the region of £160 supplied and fitted by a reputable company.
