FRONT, BEDROOM & BATHROOM DOOR LOCK SOLUTIONS:

Door Lock Options for Wooden Front Doors:

Nightlatch

Traditional wooden front doors are often completed with a Yale type nightlatch lock which is insurance company approved. We recommend opting for the night latch Yale lock to maximise security standards at home. To ensure the best results from an insurance approved Yale nightlatch lock we also recommend installing an additional deadlock so that it can be locked from the inside of your property for added security.

 

5-Lever Deadlock

Our British Standard 5-Lever deadlock is a necessity for home contents insurance to be valid in the case of a burglary! Without this 5-Lever BS, your insurance claim will void when you most need it. Be prepared and don’t get caught out.

 

Bedroom & Bathroom Door Lock Options & Alternatives:

Do you have a lock on your bedroom door? Usually bedroom doors have a simple handle operated latch. These do not have a lock, meaning burglars and opportunists can enter at any time. We recommend all internal doors be fitted with a 3-lever mortice deadlock or sash lock which can be operated with a key from both sides. Book a free security survey with one of our experienced 24 hour locksmiths.

 

3 TYPES OF KNOBSETS:

Entrance knobsets are ideal for bedroom doors and require a key for entry. On the inside of the door a thumb-turn mechanism is one of the most common choices made. Secure your bedroom door at night.

 

Privacy knobsets are the perfect solution for bathrooms because although they secure the door closed, they can still be opened easily from the outside in case of an emergency. A coin or a card will usually do the trick!

 

Passage knobsets are designed to be fitted to any door in your home or commercial premises that does not require a locking system. For example, a kitchen or storage room entry door.

4 Most Common Types of Window Handles:

Cockspur Window Handle

Cockspur window handles are most commonly found on aluminium windows and also used as an older styled Upvc window handle. This handle choice for your windows is designed with an arm like handle that locks over the window frame.

 

Espag Window Handle

Ideal for Upvc window handles but also used to operate other window systems including shootbolt systems and gearboxes. The term Espag comes from the espagnolette locking system which is moved by the espag window handle when opening and closing.

 

Tilt & Turn Window Handles

If you have tilt and turn windows you will know that they require tilt and turn replacement handles that turn 360 degrees. Tilt turn windows are operated by engaging the window handle down from inside the property and pulling or pushing the window. Just tilt & turn!

 

Spaded Window Handles

Otherwise known as bladed window handles, spaded handles consist of a flat spindle bar able to move up and down while the window handle is being turned. This is what engages the lock inside the window.
