Combination Locks For Internal Door Security

Lockrite Locksmiths Hove has seen a big increase of people in Brighton, Hove and the surrounding areas wishing to keep specific rooms in their homes more secure from unwanted guests. In some cases, it might be keeping your younger family members from getting into your office paperwork, or making sure your flat mates don't enter your room when you don't want them too.

One of the most popular options for this is installing a handy combination lock on your internal doors. By having one of these on your doors, you won't have to carry another key - The door will only be opened with a code of your choosing (which can easily be changed by the code holder) and also allows for a quick exit from the bedroom in the case of an emergency. If you want to keep specific rooms in your home secure, you should consider combination locks. Call Lockrite Locksmiths Hove on 01273 007376 for a free quote today.

Smart Lock Installation
Yale Conexis L1 Smart Door Lock opened via app

These last few months, we at LockRite Brighton have seen a huge rise in the use of and the requests to install smart locks. This new technology has seen a real boom in places like Brighton and Hove for their convenience of no longer needing to keep keys for your door, the ease of their use, not to mention their sleek and stylish look.

Having these Smart Locks installed on your door in Brighton means that all you have to do to open your door is use either a designated card, key fob or the App on your smart phone - No more need for bulky keys. There are also additional benefits that a smart lock can offer, including the ability to send virtual keys to friends, family and neighbours etc. allowing them access to your home for a limited time when you're not physically available to let them in. Once the chosen time period is over, the code resets and they will no longer have access.

The majority of smart security devices, such as the Yale Conexis are designed to make it as easy as possible for DIY installation, however, many of my customers in Brighton have decided to call me, rather than attempting to install them themselves. Having a professional locksmith to install your smart locks will give you the confidence and satisfaction of having your locks installed professionally. With LockRite being the Yale Smart Partner for Sussex you can rest assured the device will be installed correctly.

Recent burglaries in Brighton - a reminder to improve home security

There have been several burglaries reported in Brighton this year, including Three men held in Hove after burglary in Brighton, A language school burglary suspect caught on CCTV and a burglar who took £2.3k from a Brighton flat.

Unfortunately, the burglars who broke into the Brighton flat and stole £2350 also took an expensive camera and lens. Although the article doesn't explain how the flat was broken into, it's likely that the locks were compromised, snapped or forced open. In this instance a locksmith can visit the property and attempt to repair the lock if there's damage, in cases where there's significant damage to the lock, this could mean a replacement lock is needed, especially if the thief has fled with the house keys too.

You can prevent the likelihood of lock snapping by getting a locksmith to purchase and install anti snap locks. These locks are manufactured in such a way so they can't be snapped like a traditional euro cylinder. It's also worth noting that locks are easier for a thief to snap if the cylinder protrudes from the door frame enough to grasp. If you suspect that your lock is vulnerable to lock snapping, call me today on 01273 007376.

If a window has been smashed, we can help. Your Brighton locksmith is trained to secure broken windows by boarding up or using emergency glass repair film where needed.

25% Of All Vehicle Thefts Now Involve The Use Of A Key

The latest UK crime statistics show an alarming rise in vehicle thefts involving the use of a key with 25 percent of all stolen vehicles now being taken with the original key or a cloned copy. It is important to lock your car, even when kept in a garage, and ensure your car keys are kept out of sight from the opportunist thief as a car which is stolen with the use of a key is unlikely to be covered in the event of an insurance claim.

Home Security in Autumn

As autumn approaches and the temperatures start to drop the nights start closing in.  Unfortunately darker evenings mean more opportunities for burglars so it's essential to look at your home security and make sure it's up to the job.  Anti snap locks, deadbolts and window locks will help to prevent most opportunist thieves and security lighting will deter intruders. If you are unsure how secure your home is, call your local LockRite Hove locksmith today on 01273 007376 to arrange a home security survey.

Home Security in the Summer Months

As summer approaches and the days get warmer it is natural to leave windows open and doors ajar to keep homes cooler.  Unfortunately this can be an open invitation to the "sneak-in" opportunist burglar who will take advantage of open doors and windows and make off with small, expensive items such as mobile phones and laptops, or even a set of house keys to return later when the house is empty or everyone is asleep. If a burglary takes place without any visible signs of forced entry it can invalidate insurance claims, so it is important to remain security conscious in the summer.  One way to help prevent "sneak-in" burglaries is to install door security chains and window restrictors.  This allows doors and windows to be left open slightly while offering enough security to deter an opportunist thief. Call your local Hove locksmith on 01273 007376 today to discuss your home security needs.

  • Are your locksmiths local?
    Yes! Our locksmiths actually live within the locality they serve or close enough for a short commute. Not only does this mean they can be with you quickly (usually within 30-60 minutes) but it also means you are helping to support a local business rather than a company which has no interest in your community.

    If the lock is a standard rim cylinder type (Yale/Euro Cylinder) then in most instances entry can be gained quickly, sometimes within a matter of minutes. More complex locks such as five lever mortice deadlocks will take longer due to their inherently secure nature.
