Security Upgrades

At Affordalock, we are committed to helping our customers improve the security of their homes and businesses. Our security upgrades include:

• BS Night Latch: If the only lock on your door or the only lock you use is a nightlatch, it's essential to ensure that it's a high-security lock. Most nightlatch locks, sometimes known as Yale locks, are not sufficient to secure your property, and intruders can easily gain access to your home. At Affordalock, we can provide advice and guidance on choosing a high-security lock for your property.
• Multipoint Locks: When choosing a new door, most people opt for a modern multipoint locking mechanism, which offers great security and low maintenance. However, it's essential to ensure that the mechanism is oiled yearly to keep it running smoothly. Our experienced locksmiths can provide advice and guidance on maintaining your multipoint locking mechanism.
• Euro Cylinder Locks: The euro cylinder is the most popular lock and is found in all new builds and more than half of older properties, usually on uPVC doors. However, not all cylinders are the same security, with the highest security being the 3-star cylinder with anti-pick, anti-drill, and snap-safe features. Our experienced locksmiths can provide advice and guidance on upgrading to 3-star locks.
• BS Sash Locks: When your insurance company asks if your locks are BS3621, most people don't have a clue. Our experienced locksmiths can provide advice and guidance on how to tell if your locks are insurance approved.
