Your locksmith in Balham SW12

Balham SW12 sits between Wandsworth and Clapham Commons, and its streets off Nightingale Lane, Bedford Hill and Ramsden Road are lined with Victorian and Edwardian terraces.

Many of those houses have been split into upper and lower flats, so timber front doors usually carry five-lever mortice and rim nightlatch locks, while converted entrances and the mansion flats near Balham High Road run euro-cylinder and multipoint mechanisms. The work that follows is steady: BS3621 upgrades for insurance, anti-snap cylinders, and rekeying when sharers and tenants change over.

From Wandsworth Common to Hildreth Street, we cover the whole of SW12 around the clock, aiming to reach you within 25 minutes.

Locksmith Balham - FAQ

Find answers to common questions about our locksmith services.

I rent a converted flat off Bedford Hill and a housemate has just moved out. Should I change the lock?
It is worth it whenever a keyholder changes, as you cannot be sure who still has a copy. For a Balham flat we can usually rekey the existing cylinder from £55 or fit a new lock change from £69 labour, ex VAT, in a single visit with no call-out fee. We confirm the exact price before any work.
Will the old lock on my Victorian Balham front door be enough for home insurance?
Many original SW12 doors run locks that no longer meet insurer requirements. We fit British Standard BS3621 five-lever mortice locks and anti-snap cylinders that satisfy most policies, and we will tell you honestly whether your existing lock needs upgrading.
