Patio door with the glass pane removed

ASL Locksmiths were called to Rottingdean to attend a property with a failing UPVC door lock. The door lock mechanism had failed, causing the doors to be jammed solid.

We came up with a solution to remove the patio doors separately. We carefully removed 1 of the glass windows and then the doors from their hinges safely. This made the job smoother in easing out and manipulating the jammed doors apart.

We replaced the faulty lock parts and rehung the doors flush and working perfectly. Our customer was very satisfied with the work.

ASL Locksmiths are your one-call-away guys for UPVC door issues, lock installations/replacements, and other property security services.

Here’s another work from ASL Locksmiths in Brighton. It’s a British standard deadlock and sash lock.

We see British standard locks in front and back doors in homes. They’re also in landlord locks and rental property locks.

 

When you have a British standard lock installed, you get peace of mind because:

– Your doors are thief-resistant and your security is up to standard.

– These locks are already tested against Burglary techniques like drilling and picking.

– They follow your insurance policy. Most of them need this standard as the bare minimum.

 

Here’s how to tell if your locks are British standard:

– You see the British Standard kitemark. It’s the logo that looks like a heart.

– You see the British Standard number BS3621 stamped below the kitemark. 

You can see the kitemark and the number are visible in the picture.
