Once secure, we installed the high-security locks – one code lock on top and a PM560 British Standard BS3621 5 Lever Sashlock on bottom. These locks along with the fire door are the ultimate fire safety solution.

As technology advances, so do burglars. With today’s advanced lock technology, you’d think that your deadbolt is 100% safe from burglars. We’re here to tell you that that assumption is false.

Burglars adapt to technology. No matter how advanced the lock is, burglars will find their way around it. That’s why it’s so incredibly important to update those old locks on your doors. It’s time to swap out those rustic Victorian-era locks for a smart lock.

That’s exactly what a recent client of ours did in Northwest London:

The Situation

A client of ours in Northwest London contacted us because he recently became uncomfortable with the lack of security his current locks offered. His neighbor had just experienced a burglary and he was not sure his current locks would deter a burglar of any kind.

We arrived at the home and assessed the current lock situation. The client currently had a basic lock standard lock. And although this lock offers a good amount of security, there are a variety of other locks available that provide higher security.

We removed the basic lock and replaced it with a high-security Mul-T Lock on top and a code lock on the bottom. This code lock removes the need for a key and heightens security of the home.

Fingerprint code locks are growing in popularity among our customers. As the saying goes, out with the old and in with the new. People are trading in their old traditional locks for technologically advanced fingerprint code locks.

We recently received a special request to install a fingerprint lock in North London.

Fingerprint locks can be opened by either a fingerprint or pin code. The lock simply scans your unique fingerprint and grants you access to your home. They’re useful if you’re a forgetful person since they don’t require a key. No key means no more locking yourself out.

This installation process was quick and easy. The lock chosen had new cutting-edge technology. The sleek design was just an added bonus. The lock blended perfectly in with the exterior door (as seen above).

Fingerprint code locks guarantee the same amount of security for your home, if not more.

We’re expecting to see a lot more customers update to this new technology.

Mission: Replace traditional lock with new fingerprint lock technology

Emergency: No immediate emergency. The client desired a new updated lock for their home.

Here are a few pictures of the finished product:

Summer  months bring about a spike in burglaries everywhere. The weather is warming up and people’s guards are going down. Burglars seem to be getting a bit creative during this season.

Let’s take a look at this from a burglar’s perspective:

Imagine, you, yourself are a thief. You’re at a creative block. You’re sick of picking locks and kicking down doors. It’s the same old thing every day. Peak burglary season is coming and you’re at a lull. You need some inspiration for the summer months.

Then it hits you…… a drill! Drilling through the lock is the perfect fresh technique for you! It’s the foolproof groundbreaking (or should I say lock breaking) idea! Lock your doors because the “Drill Bandit” is on the loose.

We imagine that is the exact thought process of our most recent burglar…

This is a first for us. The burglar drilled through the lock completely. The drill destroyed the lock allowing the burglar to enter the home.

Luckily, London Locksmith came to the rescue. We had the lock replaced and our client’s house secured within moments. We used a high-security lock to ensure the homeowner’s maximum safety.

As a result, we helped further secure the customer’s home through our West London break in repair services.
