What you get with our new lock fitting service
One provider, one visit
We guide the choice, supply the lock and fit it, so you are not left matching parts on your own.
Matched to the door
The lock is chosen around the door, frame and daily use, which helps it work smoothly and last well.
Useful after key concerns
If keys are lost or users have changed, a replacement lock restores control over who can get in.
When changing a lock is the sensible step
A replacement lock is often the right answer after a move, when keys are missing, or when a worn mechanism has started to catch or fail. The lock still has to suit the door, frame and the way the entrance is used each day, so a like-for-like swap is not always the best choice. We assess the existing hardware, explain what will fit properly and supply the new lock as part of the job. With Cardiff Lock & Safe Company Ltd, you do not have to source products separately before arranging fitting.
Accurate fitting and checks that matter
Good lock fitting is about alignment as much as the lock itself. We remove the old hardware where needed, prepare the fitting point, install the chosen lock and check key action, latching and final locking before we leave. If you are changing occupancy in a home, flat or business unit, we can also discuss spare keys and any related security work so the entrance works cleanly from day one.
Frequently asked questions
When is a new lock better than a repair?
A new lock is often the better route after a move, when keys are missing, or when the existing mechanism is too worn to trust. Once we inspect the door and current hardware, we can explain the most sensible option.
Can you supply the lock as well as fit it?
Yes. We assess the door and existing fittings, talk through the type of lock needed and supply a compatible product as part of the job. That saves you buying a lock that may not suit the door.
What do you need to know before fitting a new lock?
It helps to know the door type, what lock is there now, why it is being changed and whether key control is a concern. Photos can also help us judge the likely fitting requirements before we attend.
