Moving House? Consider Changing Your Locks
Moving into a new home is exciting, but it’s wise to change the locks for peace of mind.
Previous keys may still be in circulation with estate agents, tradespeople, or even neighbours.
Our team can quickly update your locks and assess the overall security of your home to ensure it’s well protected.
Replacing Locks After a Burglary
If your home has been broken into, restoring your sense of security is crucial. Our experienced locksmiths can replace damaged locks and provide expert advice on boosting your property’s security, giving you reassurance and protecting your home against future incidents.
Internal Locks – Bathroom and Bedroom Lock Fittings
We don’t just handle external security; our locksmiths can also fit locks to internal doors, such as bathrooms and bedrooms, offering you additional privacy and security within your home.
Enhancing Your Home Security
Comprehensive Security Assessment
For those looking to improve home security, Drummond Security offers in-depth assessments of existing door and window locks.
As Hertfordshire’s only ABS Elite Center, we provide high-security ABS three-star diamond cylinder locks, proven to resist even sophisticated break-in methods like lock snapping.
We also offer ABS key cutting services for added convenience, whether you need them while you wait or ordered via phone with a security card.
Brisant Ultion – The Ultimate Anti-Snap Lock
With rigorous design and testing, the Brisant Ultion lock surpasses security standards, holding both TS007 3* and the MLA Sold Secure Diamond Standard. This lock provides exceptional resistance against tampering, giving you confidence that your home is protected with one of the most secure locks available.
uPVC Door and Window Lock Repairs
If your uPVC door locks, hinges, or handles are showing signs of wear, alignment issues, or are difficult to operate, Drummond Security can help. Serving the whole of Hertfordshire, we provide comprehensive repairs and replacements for uPVC door and window locks, including adjustments to double-glazed window mechanisms and replacements for misted panes.
Common issues, such as doors that won’t unlock or locks that are stiff to turn, often indicate problems with the gearbox or alignment. If your key won’t turn fully, spins in the barrel, or if the handle won’t budge even after unlocking, it’s likely that the gearbox has failed.
Our engineers can quickly get your door open, and with fully stocked vans, we can secure your door temporarily while sourcing any required parts, usually within 24 hours.
In cases where parts are discontinued, we can modify the door and frame to fit an alternative mechanism, preventing the need for a complete door replacement.
For doors that are becoming stiff to lock or require extra force to hold the handle up, this typically signals a misaligned hinge or dropped door. While this may not be urgent initially, neglecting it can lead to full mechanism failure, making it impossible to secure the door.
As uPVC repair specialists, we aim to resolve most locking issues on our first visit, typically within an hour, ensuring your doors remain functional and secure.
