Local know-how
Warner flats, terraces and family homes
Walthamstow, Leyton and Leytonstone are mostly long terraces, including the Warner homes built as pairs of flats with their front doors side by side.
Further north in Highams Park and Chingford there are more family houses, with back doors, patio doors and side gates to secure as well as the front door.
See recent crime reports for Walthamstow, Leyton or Chingford on police.uk, or call the police on 101 for anything that is not an emergency.

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.
Period homes
Warner homes and conservation areas
Waltham Forest has some of East London’s most recognisable houses. A few things to know before you change a lock or a door.
Waltham Forest Council: conservation areas and Article 4 directions (opens in a new tab)
Two doors, two flats
Warner homes in Walthamstow, Leyton and Highams Park were built as two flats with their front doors side by side. We can key them differently or alike, and match the locks so both doors look right.
Conservation areas
In the Walthamstow Village and Browning Road conservation areas, an Article 4 direction means changes to the front of a house can need planning permission. A new lock on the existing door is usually the simpler route.
Keep the original door
We repair old wooden doors and fit a BS 3621 mortice lock, the standard most home insurers ask for.
Round the back
Patio doors, back doors and side gates in Chingford and Highams Park get the same standard as the front door.
