Repossession Locksmith Eviction Entry in Brighton

ASL Locksmiths assisted with a court-ordered eviction in Brighton. Fortunately, the property was abandoned so we gained entrance easily with locksmith tools. We supplied and fitted a codelocks mechanical push button codelock unit and a Brenton bolt/pull handle to the garden gate.

An eviction entry is always unique. The level of security varies for each property.  From the outside, you can see the locks that guard the building’s door but it’s possible there are additional locks inside.

When doing repossession eviction entry, we conduct a full-risk assessment on the property and occupants to keep operation safe and efficient.

We make repossessions operations smooth by:

  • Communicating closely with the bailiff.
  • Bringing a wide range of non-destructive tool sets including high-specialist manual and electric lock picking tools.
  • Heavy entry tool set for highly-secured doors
  • Replacing old locks with new locks, keys and chains

We are experienced in locksmithing and  property repossession / eviction entry. We are open to contact from baliff’s and solicitors.

British Standard Lock Installation Brighton

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.

 

If you want to have secure locks for your rental properties or your home, contact ASL Locksmiths now!

Fire Door & Lock Replacement Brighton

“Pay peanuts, get monkeys” 

But it’s a shame when you pay good money and still get a headache, like a store owner in Brighton who paid an extortionate amount of £140 to their local locksmith and only got a broken fire door. 

The lock could have been easily picked, or worst-case scenario, drilled out, in order to gain entry.

But the local locksmith (we won’t name names) smashed a hole through the door. Now the store owner has a fire door to replace.  

Simply repairing the hole won’t be enough to meet the fire regulation codes.

In their rigorous effort to help, the local locksmith also broke the barrel, resulting in a second lockout. ASL Locksmiths attended the property and we got it done right. 

This could’ve been avoided if they worked with the right service providers. Save your money. 

Call Jon at ASL Locksmiths on 07878 558458.
