We were called for a brand new lock installation for a commercial property in Brighton. The sashlock is a British Standard fire rated model designed to meet the building type certification.
With our specialist tools and experience, the installation was quick. We tested the door lock and made sure everything functioned correctly.

ASL Locksmiths attended a property that required a faulty deadlock to be replaced and re-levered to match another lock located within the same property.
The lock was housed in a metal casement on the internal side of the door. Because of this unusual mounting, we supplied extra-long keys so the lock can opened externally. Due to the thickness of the door and the lock being mounted internally, standard length keys would not have reached the lock case.
ASL Locksmiths provides fast customised solutions to your property security problems. We always carry with us a wide range of stock to make sure we can attend to the issues and solve them within the day. Contact us today if you have any questions and we’ll send you a quote.

ASL Locksmiths were called for an emergency repair of a property’s UPVC window hinge. The hinge had buckled, making it impossible to open and close the window properly.
We removed the window pane and carefully set it with a protective cloth. Our client offered us a lovely cup of coffee and after our quick break, we fitted new egress hinges that conform to fire regulations for the property type.
The new hinges have a green button indicating a fire exit to use in the event of an emergency.

ASL Locksmiths were called to a property in Brighton to repair a UPVC window in the customer’s bathroom. A failed locking espag mechanism has caused the window to get stuck in a locked position.
We were a two man team who carefully deglazed the window first before using specialist tools to manoeuvre the window frame free. Once the window frame was detached, we supplied and fitted a new locking espag, some new hinges, and a new handle. Once rehung, we ensured that every mechanism was calibrated, ensuring that opening and closing operations were working and the window sealed properly.
We can help you with your UPVC-related issues, lock installations / replacements, and other property security services. Contact us today.

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

ASL Locksmiths were called for a UPVC door repair in Hove.
The door had a broken lower panel and an old handle with chipped paint. We carefully removed the PVC panel and used it as a size reference for the new replacement panel. Once the size was confirmed, we measured and cut the new PVC panel to the door’s dimensions for a perfect fit. We also replaced the handle with a new one for a less creaky handle and a more beautiful look.
In the end, the door is looking all brand new. We took the old broken plastic section to be recycled by a licensed environmental waste disposal company.
