Why a Working Window Lock Matters
An unlocked window is one of the easiest ways into a home, and many insurance policies require key-operated locks on accessible windows. If a window in your home no longer locks – or the key has long since disappeared – it is a quick, inexpensive fix that genuinely improves your security.
We repair or replace the locking gearbox, shootbolts and keeps inside the window, or fit complete new key-locking handles, matched to your existing windows.
