Lock Outs
Being locked outside your property can be an unsettling experience, and I am committed to resolving the situation efficiently and professionally. I attend both residential and commercial premises, working with a broad range of locking systems including cylinder and multi-point mechanisms. My approach prioritises careful entry methods to minimise disruption, while ensuring any damaged or faulty lock is promptly restored or renewed to safeguard your property.
Lock Changes
We provide a dependable and professional lock changing service, carefully tailored to suit your property and security requirements. Whether you have recently moved home, experienced a break-in, misplaced your keys, or wish to enhance protection, we supply and install high-quality replacement locks. We work with a wide range of properties and ensure every fitting meets appropriate insurance and security standards.
Lock Repairs
If your lock becomes damaged, difficult to turn, or stops functioning correctly, I provide a professional repair service to resolve the issue efficiently. From worn cylinders to defective mechanisms and multi-point locking faults, I carefully assess the problem before undertaking the appropriate repair. My priority is to reinstate reliable security and smooth performance while avoiding unnecessary replacements, helping you save both time and expense.
Burglary Repairs
When your property has suffered as a result of burglary or attempted intrusion, I provide an efficient and professional repair service. My priority is to make your premises safe without delay, helping you regain reassurance. I mend or renew damaged locks, doors and fittings, ensuring reliable security. If required, I will enhance your current locking systems to offer improved resistance against future incidents.
UPVC Door Locks
If you are experiencing difficulties with your uPVC door lock, I provide expert repairs, replacements, and upgrades to maintain the security of your property. With regular use, mechanisms can become stiff, misaligned, or fail entirely. I promptly diagnose the fault and complete the required work to restore smooth, dependable operation. I repair and replace multi-point locking systems, euro cylinders, handles, and gearboxes, ensuring your door locks correctly and performs as intended.
Insurance Approved Locks
Our service is designed to help you satisfy insurance conditions while improving the security of your home or business. We supply and fit approved locking systems, including British Standard mortice locks and anti-snap euro cylinders, ensuring precise installation. If you are uncertain about your insurers expectations, we offer clear, practical advice before undertaking any work.

Mike was amazing. He solved everything. He was impeccably polite and informative. In fact I don't think I've ever had such an amazing service from a handyman before - truly great!

Mr Napier worked tirelessly and with good humour to make sure my lock was safe. He explained the difficulties and what could be done about them at each stage of his visit. The response of the main office and the attitude of Mr Napier ensures that I shall always use lockrite in future if necessary and I shall recommend the firm to neighbours if required

Ralph from lockrite was very professional and did two separate jobs at our house.The first was putting a lock on our bedroom door to prevent our young son from entering and giving us some privacy! I was very happy with this work and asked Ralph to return to fix problems with a front gate and double gates. He managed to solve this and now we can lock our gates safely which gives us added security.

Finally he fixed a door handle on our Airbnb property which he did quickly and was an added bonus! I would recommend Ralph and his locksmith business and we were very satisfied with the work carried out.
