Locksmith Cover in Easington
Neither Easington job was a broken lock. One property had been sold with no keys at all; in the other, a thumbturn had made it too easy for a young child to open the front door.
Our Work in Easington
A thumbturn swapped for a key lock, for a child’s safety
The front door had a thumbturn, which made it too easy for a young child to open the door and get out unnoticed. It was changed to a lock that needs a key on both sides. Read the job.
A sold property with no keys
An auction house had sold the property and there were no keys to the front door. Entry was gained without damage, a new anti-snap lock fitted and a key safe installed. Read the job.
A thumbturn is the right choice in many homes, because nobody needs a key to get out in an emergency; where a child could open it, a key lock is the safer option. See lock repair in Peterlee.
Both Easington jobs were about who can open the door. A sold property with no keys needed entry and a new lock; a home with a young child needed the opposite of convenience, a lock that cannot be opened from inside without a key. The right lock depends on the household, not just the door.
