Grille lock replacement and upgrades in Kelso: what will it cost?

Grille lock replacement and upgrades in Kelso typically costs £150 to £354 including VAT (£125 to £295 plus VAT) per lock, supplied and fitted, depending on the lock type. The price is confirmed before work starts.

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 we look at

  • Keyed-alike and master-key suites
  • Replacement cylinders and lock bodies
  • Lock work on most grille makes
  • Padlock hasp conversions
  • Quick-release conversions for escape windows
  • Complete lock box replacement

Restricted key systems limit who can have copies cut.

What the rules say in Scotland

Scotland

Bedroom and escape windows

In Scotland, escape from homes is covered by the Building Standards technical handbooks (section 2, fire). Where a room relies on a window for escape, nothing fitted over it should stop it being used. We only fit grilles over escape windows with a keyless internal release.

Grilles across exits in business premises

In Scotland, the Fire (Scotland) Act 2005 and the Fire Safety (Scotland) Regulations 2006 make the duty holder keep escape routes and exits available and easy to open while people are present. A grille across an exit should be open whenever the premises are occupied.

Grille lock replacement and upgrades in Kelso: questions

Do you cover Galashiels as well as Kelso?

Yes. As well as Kelso, we can arrange visits in nearby Galashiels, Hawick and Haddington, and elsewhere in Scottish Borders.

Can all my grilles use the same key?

Yes, by keying the new cylinders alike.

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.
