If you have a ‘plastic’ door (uPVC, PVCu, composite, ‘metal skinned’, etc) then you should look at this link. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-leeds-17075027 It isn’t the end of the world, but you likely do need to change your locks to remain secure. Yes, give us a call and we can keep you secure.
I knocked the ice coat off and it worked first time. …and here’s a nice photo of just how fun freezing rain can make things!
There’s about 2″ of snow out there at the moment, but if you are standing outside your house freezing, give us a ring! We have a 4×4 capability, and can get you in just like normal (though we might be a little slower driving out to you, what with the ice)
Today’s jobs were again rather poor. A few warrants with nothing for me to do, except a single euro cylinder that fell inside of 5 seconds (and which I thought briefly had gone instantly) and giving some CCTV and general security advice to a business that had been hit for metal recently. Metal theft is [...]
Considering the flack I personally have been getting, and the randomly picked half-truths being thrown around by a few formerly dis-interested parties about the National Occupational Standards for Locksmithing, I thought I might do a little rumour control. Today’s meeting was the culmination of 2 years of meetings, the first with the actual results of [...]
Just been working all day in Coventry. Currently freezing, having spent most of the day outdoors, and even 5 layers doesn’t keep you warm forever.

Swapping over and re-arranging all the various kits, tools and miscellany took about an hour, as I’ve had a fairly strict sort-out of stock and tools. The state of the back of the van is a thing of legend. Like a TARDIS, full of [...]
(Cross-posted to www.SheSaidHeSaid.com) To the man in Bromyard who called a few weeks ago about getting security grilles fitted, apologies. I took your name & number down, and a few days went by, and the day of our appointment came & went, and can I find the note I took? Sadly, I think my baby [...]
I’ve spent the last two or three days really practising impressioning. Impressioning is more of an art than a science really, to me, at this stage. It is something with many variables that interact, and although there are impressioning experts out there who do this as their main way of opening locks, in the main [...]
Great news for those who have been waiting. We now have a good quantity of pullscrews in stock, including the ‘Pitbull’ 5.5mm behemoth for dimple locks. These are now available in our online shop.
