Recent Work in the Peterlee Area

Genuine jobs we have completed in the Peterlee area, of any kind (not necessarily burglary repair work):

• Window Repairs To 2 Windows in Peterlee (Window Mechanisms): Two windows would not lock or unlock because faulty mechanisms were not moving the shootbolts; both mechanisms were changed.
• Lost keys in Horden (Emergency Lockout): The customer had lost the keys and could not get into the property. The door was opened without damage and the lock was changed.
• Lock change in Shotton Colliery: The customer needed their locks changing, and a replacement lock was fitted.

The Parts an Attack Damages

• The cylinder is the usual target and is replaced, normally with an anti-snap or 3-star cylinder.
• Handles bent or loosened in the attempt are replaced with high-security ones where suitable.
• The door around the lock may be marked or split; a repair plate covers the damage so the door can stay.
• The gearbox, hooks and keeps are checked, since a forced door can be left out of line.
• Windows and garages get forced locks and handles replaced, and broken glass as a new unit.
