Ask for call-out, labour and parts separately
For urgent work, clarify the charging structure before attendance and ask what replacement lock is proposed if drilling or replacement becomes necessary.
- Send a clear photo of the door and lock where safe to do so.
- Ask whether the call-out includes a set amount of labour.
- Confirm the specification and price of replacement hardware before fitting.
- For rented property, establish who is authorised to approve non-emergency changes.

Met Police lock advice for Enfield homes
For euro-cylinder replacements, the Metropolitan Police recommends TS007 3-star rated locks
A lock change is not only about making the key turn again. The Metropolitan Police advises London residents to secure doors and windows properly and highlights standards intended to resist common attack methods.
Met Police advice says to choose a TS007 3-star euro cylinder
The Metropolitan Police recommends a 3-star rated euro cylinder meeting TS007 when changing this type of lock. It says the standard helps protect against common methods including lock snapping, drilling and bumping.
Multi-point doors still need the final lock action
Met Police guidance notes that modern multi-point uPVC doors rely on the user lifting the handle, turning the key and removing it. When a door is being repaired, ask the locksmith to check the full mechanism rather than only the cylinder.

A clear photo can save an unnecessary first visit
A snapped euro cylinder in Ponders End, a night latch in Southgate and a multi-point uPVC mechanism in Enfield Town may require different parts. Send photos of the lock face, door edge and handles if safe to do so.
