Visits in Bridport and nearby

Bridport is about 38 miles from Bournemouth, the main centre for Dorset. We can arrange visits across the DT6 district and in nearby places such as Dorchester and Yeovil.

Dorset combines large suburban areas around Bournemouth and Poole with stone-built market towns and conservation-area high streets such as Dorchester and Bridport.

Typical reasons to book:

  • New occupants with unknown key holders
  • Bedroom grilles needing a keyless release
  • Sites wanting one key for every grille
  • Worn, stiff or seized locks

Things to think about

Escape windows

Convert key-only grilles on escape windows to a keyless internal release.

Key control

Restricted key systems limit who can have copies cut.

Planning and safety in England

England

Bedroom and escape windows

Approved Document B (fire safety) expects many habitable rooms in houses, especially first-floor rooms, to have an emergency escape window with an unobstructed opening of at least 0.33 m², at least 450 mm high and 450 mm wide, with the bottom of the opening no more than 1,100 mm above the floor. We only fit grilles over escape windows with a release that opens from inside without a key.

Grilles in rented homes

Landlords in England must keep rented homes free from serious hazards under the Housing Health and Safety Rating System, which includes fire. A grille that stops a tenant using an escape window can create a hazard, so grilles in rented homes should have keyless internal releases.

Grille lock replacement and upgrades in Bridport: questions

Do you cover Dorchester as well as Bridport?

We can arrange work in Bridport and in nearby Dorchester (14 miles), Yeovil (15 miles) and Weymouth (15 miles). Dates depend on engineer availability.

Is a better cylinder worth it?

On a grille that is otherwise sound, a higher-security cylinder is an inexpensive way to raise resistance to lock attack.

Can you change a lock on a grille you did not fit?

Yes, on most makes, subject to compatible parts.

I have lost my grille key. What can I do?

We can open and replace the lock so you have new keys and know who holds them.
