Local know-how
Terraces, shared houses and Royal Docks flats
Long Victorian and Edwardian terraces run through Forest Gate, Upton Park, East Ham and Manor Park. Most still have wooden front doors with a mortice lock and a nightlatch, and many are now flats or shared houses.
Around the Royal Docks, Canning Town, Custom House and Beckton the homes are newer: blocks of flats with fire-rated entrance doors, and family houses with uPVC doors.
Almost four in ten Newham households rent privately (Census 2021), so a lot of our work here is for tenants, landlords and letting agents.
See recent crime reports for Forest Gate, East Ham or Canning Town on police.uk, or call the police on 101 for anything that is not an emergency.
Shared houses in Forest Gate and East Ham
Thumb-turn room locks, front door locks and a labelled key for every tenant.
Flats around the Royal Docks
Euro cylinders on fire-rated flat doors in Canning Town, Custom House and Beckton.
Old wooden front doors
Forced or sticking doors in Plaistow and Upton Park, repaired where we can.
The locks we fit
Quality locks, not cheap imports
Not all locksmiths use the same locks. Some fit cheap unbranded locks that can wear quickly and fail. We do not.
- From proper suppliersEvery lock we fit is bought from reputable, well-established UK locksmith wholesalers.
- British Standard and KitemarkedCylinders carry the BSI Kitemark to TS007, and our mortice deadlocks meet BS 3621, the standard most home insurers ask for.
- Built to lastBranded locks work smoothly for years. Cheap ones can stick, wear and fail, which means another call-out.
- One price, all-inclusiveThe lock, fitting and labour in one price, agreed on the call before we come out.
Shared houses
Locks for shared houses in Newham
Newham licenses most private rented homes, and shared houses (HMOs) have their own fire safety standards. These are the lock jobs Newham landlords ask us for most.
Bedroom doors
Council HMO standards usually ask for room locks that open from the inside without a key, so nobody is trapped in a fire. We fit thumb-turn locks and key each room differently.
The front door
The way out has to open from the inside without a key too. We fit a lock with a key outside and a thumb-turn inside.
When a tenant leaves
We change the cylinder on their room and the front door, so old keys stop working. It takes 20 to 40 minutes on most doors.
Records for your licence
You get an invoice with the property address and what we fitted, ready for an inspection.
