ASL Locksmiths attended a client’s property in Lewes to help fix a snapped key in their front door lock. Upon inspecting the lock, we found that the barrel had failed mechanically, causing the key to jam and then break off.

We supplied and fitted a very high security Diamond grade 3 star insurance rated Euro cylinder barrel with 5 keys.

This high security lock is designed to safeguard the door from forced attacks. The protection works with the cylinder having been engineered to have a sacrificial point, which when tampered from the outside, sets an interlocking cam mechanism into action. This prevents any damage to the internal parts of the cylinder, while still allowing access on the lock from the inside.

Holding one of the highest possible security certifications, this lock ensures our customer’s property is safe and secure. It also comes with a 10 year manufacturers warranty.

You can give us a call for immediate security solutions such as lock repairs and changes as well as installations, and service emergency lockouts. Take a look at the extensive locksmith projects we’ve done here.

ASL Locksmiths and J&J Locksmiths collaborated to fit multiple freshfit Euro operated sashlocks to a property at the Brighton Marina. The job was especially challenging as the doors were made of wood with plastic laminate coating, a delicate material prone to cracking.

Our experts carefully installed the locks to a very high standard, leaving a clean and safe flush fitting as observed from our before and after pictures.

Barrell replacement

ASL locksmiths were called by a customer in Brighton who had lost their keys. We installed a replacement lock part.

ASL fitted a new Ingersoll barrel. Replacement parts make sense for the environment and keep costs down. Ingersoll design has an ultra hardened top to resist drilling. They use a 10-lever, high security cylinder system to ensure long-lasting security and durability that lasts for years.

Our locksmiths recommend Ingersoll products. Originally designed in Britain by Jack W. Taylor. Ideas for the 10 cylinder lock were reportedly formed in 1944.

History of Ingersoll

The Ingersoll lock manufacturing is now made by a Swedish company ASSA ABLOY

who concentrate on high quality mechanical security products as part of their global product range. We only source directly from Ingersoll to ensure that we only have 100% genuine parts. Because Ingersoll locks have been existing for so long, there are many counterfeit and imitation products. But nothing beats the time-tested security of a genuine Ingersoll.

If you need lock repairs, maintenance, replacements, and other services, we are only one call away.

MPL mechanism

ASL locksmiths were called to attend a Brighton property to supply and fit a Yale multi point locking unit (MPL) for a UPVC door.

Once corrosion & rust has spread often causes the locking points to fail, so we retrofitted it with a new multi point locking unit, installed an ISEO barrel, a satin handle and full length brand new strikes to keep the frame secured at multiple points. The result is a robust, almost like new UPVC door.

If you need repairs, installation, or replacement for your UPVC doors, windows or double glazing? You’re at the right place, ASL locksmiths have complete many UPVC jobs and can help you secure your property. Repairs are better for the environment. For a fast response call or contact us.

3 lever mortice sash lock change

One of ASL Locksmiths Brighton’s jobs was at a home in Lewes to upgrade the security of their interior door. We installed a Union 2077 3 lever mortice sashlock, which is built for wood doors up to 54mm thick. Featuring a brass deadbolt with hardened steel, this model also has an easily reversible latch, which means it can be installed in either a left or right hinged door.

3 lever mechanism sash locks offer an ample amount of privacy where high security is not needed, making them ideal for interior doors in homes like bedrooms and storage rooms. With fewer levers than the 5 lever locks, these keys are relatively easier to duplicate.
