  • Padlock hasp conversions
  • Keyed-alike and master-key suites
  • Replacement cylinders and lock bodies
  • Additional shoot bolts top and bottom
  • Lock work on most grille makes

Things to think about

Keyed alike

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

Escape windows

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

What the rules say 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 Oadby: questions

Do you cover Wigston as well as Oadby?

Yes. As well as Oadby, we can arrange visits in nearby Wigston, Leicester and Market Harborough, and elsewhere in Leicestershire.

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.
