Lock Change Services in Glasgow

Why You Might Need a Lock Change

No matter the reason, our lock replacement services ensure your property remains safe.

There are several reasons why changing your locks might be necessary. If you’re facing any of the following situations, it’s time to call a professional locksmith in Glasgow:

• Lost or Stolen Keys – If your keys are lost or stolen, changing your locks prevents unauthorised access.

• Moving to a New Property – Ensure previous owners, tenants, or workers no longer have access.

• Worn-Out or Faulty Locks – Over time, locks degrade and may stop functioning properly.

• Break-In or Attempted Burglary – If your lock has been tampered with, a replacement is essential for security.

• Upgrading to High-Security Locks – Improve your property's security with modern, more robust locks.

• Tenancy Changes – Landlords should change locks between tenants to maintain security.

Cylinder Lock

Mortice Lock

A mortice lock is a secure locking mechanism fitted within the door itself. Usually installed on wooden doors. Available in different types, such as deadlocks and sash locks, each providing varying levels of security. Mortice locks come in various sizes and security ratings, typically supplied with two keys. Common problems: loose handle, or jammed key.

A nightlatch lock is a popular locking mechanism typically installed on wooden doors. This lock operates with a key from the outside and features a latch that automatically locks when the door closes, offering convenience and security. Nightlatches are often used alongside mortice locks for improved protection. A common problem with nightlatch locks is the risk of locking yourself out, especially if the latch engages without the key

A cylinder lock, also known as a barrel lock, is key-operated from both sides or features a thumbturn. It usually comes with a standard package of three keys and is commonly fitted on UPVC doors. Cylinder locks are available in different sizes and security levels. Common problems include snapped keys and jammed locks.

At Next Door Locksmith, we provide a range of lock replacement and lock upgrade services tailored to your needs. Our professional locksmiths work with all types of locks, including:

High Security Locks

We always suggest installing high security locks when doing a lock change. A number of our choices are high-security models that improve your protection while increasing the overall quality. The basic function of a high security lock is to provide higher levels of key control and resistance to picking, drilling, or snapping the lock, ultimately protecting your home or business. But it is not just security, it is also about quality and trust.

BS 6321 locks are manufactured in accordance with accepted British Standards to provide security to the public and property. These locks are approved by insurances and often meet the insurance policy coverage features, making them a necessity for homeowners who wish to strengthen safety.
One important feature of BS 6321 locks is inclusion of the restricted key systems. Restricted keys prevent unauthorized duplication; as a rule, other copies of the key must be purchased from the authorised dealers; in that way, only trustworthy people could make copies. Within extreme conditions, BS 6321 locks are expected to cope with a variety of attack methods, including lockpicking and drilling. The locks of this type are difficult to break because of their sturdiness and sophisticated mechanisms.
