What is the price of grille lock replacement in Wickford?

Most grille lock replacements in Wickford cost £150 to £354 including VAT (£125 to £295 plus VAT) per lock fitted. Upgrades such as quick-release or restricted-key cylinders are priced before work goes ahead.

Grille lock replacement means fitting a new cylinder, lock body or complete lock box to an existing security grille. It is the quick fix for lost keys, worn or seized locks and moving into a property with unknown keys, and a chance to upgrade to a stronger or quick-release lock.

What is included

  • Complete lock box replacement
  • Replacement cylinders and lock bodies
  • Keyed-alike and master-key suites
  • Additional shoot bolts top and bottom
  • Upgrades to higher-security cylinders
  • Padlock hasp conversions

Visits in Wickford and nearby

Wickford is about 10 miles from Southend-on-Sea, the main centre for Essex. We can arrange visits across the SS12 district and in nearby places such as Rayleigh and Basildon.

Essex ranges from Victorian terraces in Southend and Colchester to new towns such as Harlow and Basildon and large commuter estates near London.

This work suits:

  • Lost or stolen keys
  • Worn, stiff or seized locks
  • New occupants with unknown key holders
  • Sites wanting one key for every grille

Before the visit

Escape windows

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

Keyed alike

One key for all grilles is convenient for homes and small shops.

Planning and safety in England

England

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.

Grilles across exits in business premises

In workplaces and other non-domestic premises, including the common parts of blocks of flats and HMOs, the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 makes the responsible person keep escape routes and emergency exits available and easy to open while people are present. A grille across an exit should be unlocked and parked open whenever the building is occupied, and covered in the fire risk assessment.

Grille lock replacement and upgrades in Wickford: questions

Which areas near Wickford do you cover?

We can arrange work in Wickford and in nearby Rayleigh (4 miles), Basildon (4 miles) and Benfleet (4 miles). Dates depend on engineer availability.

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.

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 all my grilles use the same key?

Yes, by keying the new cylinders alike.
