Call us on 020 3376 6170While euro cylinder locks are a popular choice, mortice deadlocks have their own strengths that can't be overlooked. They're a classic option, often seen as more secure due to their design. Mortice deadlocks fit snugly inside the door, making them less visible and harder for intruders to tamper with.
We often recommend them for wooden doors, and they're especially common in older homes. Brands like Union 2134 and Yale PM562 offer robust options that meet British Standards for security. This means they've been tested for strength and durability.
Mortice deadlocks require a key to lock and release, which can be seen as a safer option since it reduces the risk of lock picking. It's important to ensure your lock is fitted correctly, so it functions properly and provides the intended level of security.
Regular maintenance will keep these locks working smoothly for years.
We often see UPVC doors in various homes across Dalston and East London. They're a common sight in new-builds and many period properties.
The mechanisms can sometimes get sticky or misaligned, making the door difficult to lock or release. Regular maintenance helps, but if you notice issues, it's wise to address them sooner rather than later.
We typically work with brands like Mila, GU Ferco, Fuhr, and Yale Lockmaster for these mechanisms. They're reliable and well-suited for local homes, providing a balance of security and usability.
