When a lock issue arises, we jump into action to assess whether a repair, rekey, or full replacement is necessary. We carefully evaluate the situation right at your doorstep.
Whether it's a snapped key, worn levers, or a stiff cylinder, our goal is to determine the best solution for your security needs.
Consider a buyer completing on a Victorian conversion near Crystal Palace Park. If old keys are unaccounted for, rekeying might be the safest option.
However, if the lock shows significant wear, a full replacement could be essential, especially for uPVC, composite, timber, or aluminium doors.
We're equipped to handle any decision with expertise, ensuring your home is secure with options like upgrading to BS3621 mortice locks or TS007 3-star anti-snap cylinders.
Expect us to make the right call, whether it's a quick fix or an all-encompassing lock change.
Before we order a single part, it's vital to measure the door accurately. This process guarantees a perfect fit for your lock, avoiding future issues.
We'll walk through a detailed survey: measuring the cylinder, case, and backset. Checking the door alignment is paramount, especially with the hinge drop often seen on older doors down the Gipsy Hill slopes. This step helps us identify any potential misalignments that could affect the lock's performance.
Identifying the mechanism type of your door is also a key part of our process. A wrong measurement means a poor fit, so we make certain every part is precisely sized to your door.
Whether it's the tall Victorian villas around the Triangle or the bay-fronted terraces, each door has its unique requirements. By getting these measurements right, we guarantee your lock upgrade or repair is both smooth and secure, protecting your home effectively.

From 28 Berridge Road on the Upper Norwood ridge we run out across the Norwoods, the Palace side and beyond. These are the areas closest to the van, each with its own local page.
Choosing the right cylinder or case for each door is vital to guarantee security and functionality. We need to match the lock type to the door material. For uPVC and composite doors, euro cylinders are ideal. Timber doors, commonly found in Victorian villas and terraces, benefit from mortice and rim setups. Aluminium doors require hookbolt cases to secure them effectively.
| Door Type | Recommended Lock | Note |
|---|---|---|
| uPVC/Composite | Euro Cylinder | Ideal for modern doors |
| Timber | Mortice/Rim Setup | Best for older homes |
| Aluminium | Hookbolt Case | Secure for metal doors |
For exposed front doors, an anti-snap option like Ultion is essential to prevent break-ins. However, in less vulnerable areas, a plain kitemarked cylinder might suffice. By carefully selecting the right lock, we make sure each entry point is secure without overcomplicating the solution.
To guarantee your insurance cover remains valid, it's crucial to understand the standards insurers check. At Newell Glass & Locks, we ensure your locks meet these requirements.
For timber doors, insurers look for BS3621 certification on mortice and nightlatch deadlocks. This standard guarantees locks are robust and secure, meeting necessary safety criteria.
For euro cylinders, TS007 3-star or Sold Secure Diamond standards are vital. These ratings demonstrate resistance against common break-in techniques, such as snapping, bumping, or drilling. We fit these cylinders so that your cover isn't compromised.
Additionally, the Secured by Design accreditation applies to the entire doorset, guaranteeing it's built to withstand forced entry.
Fixed price on the call, no call-out fee. TS007 3-star cylinders, BS3621 mortice deadlocks and emergency glazing across Crystal Palace, South Norwood, Penge, West Norwood and the wider patch.
Every lock installation is handled with precision and care. We begin by cleanly removing the old mechanism, guaranteeing no damage is done to your door.
Once the old hardware is out, we expertly seat the new cylinder or case, making certain it fits perfectly. Adjustments are made to the keeps and the multipoint strip to guarantee everything aligns smoothly.
Before we leave, we cycle the lock from both sides using every key, confirming that each one works smoothly. This thorough process assures that your new lock functions flawlessly from the start.
We pride ourselves on tidy work, so we take away the old hardware, leaving your space clean.

We make that call at your door. If the mechanism is sound and only the keys are a worry, changing the cylinder or rekeying is enough. A worn or damaged case needs replacing, and we show you what we found either way.
That is what we fit to. Timber doors get a BS3621 mortice deadlock, uPVC and composite doors get a TS007 3-star cylinder, and the invoice names the parts and the standard for your policy paperwork.
Always. A cylinder that protrudes past the handle is the easiest thing in the world to snap, so the door is measured and the barrel sized to sit flush before anything is fitted.
A cylinder swap is usually 20 to 30 minutes. A full mortice change on a timber door runs 45 to 60 minutes. Common sizes are carried on the van so most jobs finish on the first visit.
Yes, keyed-alike sets are straightforward when the locks are changed in one appointment. Tell us on the call and we will bring cylinders keyed to a single key for front, back and side doors.
