Visits in Wallasey and nearby

Wallasey is about 4 miles from Liverpool, the main centre for Merseyside. We can arrange visits across the CH44 district and in nearby places such as Birkenhead and Bootle.

Merseyside has Liverpool's Georgian quarter and Victorian terraces, the Wirral's suburbs, and large high-street and dockside commercial areas.

This work suits:

  • New occupants with unknown key holders
  • Lost or stolen keys
  • Bedroom grilles needing a keyless release
  • Sites wanting one key for every grille

Before the visit

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.
