Protect Your Home with a Professional Security Survey

Your home should be a place of comfort and safety. However, without proper security measures in place you can become vulnerable to break-ins and intrusions. 

At Lock & Key, we provide free comprehensive home security surveys to help homeowners across Barnsley and the surrounding areas identify potential security risks and implement effective solutions. 

Our team of expert locksmiths can assess your property’s current security measures and recommend practical improvements to help keep your home safe.

What is a Home Security Survey?

A home security survey is a professional assessment of your property’s security vulnerabilities. Our accredited locksmiths will conduct a thorough inspection of your doors, windows, locks, entry points, and overall security measurers to determine how well your home is protected against burglars and intruders. We will identify any weak points and suggest upgrades or improvements to enhance your security and above all your peace of mind.

What Does Our FREE Home Security Survey Include?

At Lock & Key Barnsley, our comprehensive home security survey covers all aspects of your current security, including:

Lock assessment

We inspect the locks on all your doors, windows, garages, and outbuildings to check if they meet British Standard BS3621 requirements. If necessary, we will recommend upgrading to anti-snap, anti-pick, and anti-drill locks to enhance protection.

Door and window security

Our fully trained locksmiths will check the strength and condition of your doors and windows, ensuring they have secure locks, reinforced frames, and additional security features such as window restrictors and door chains.

Entry point vulnerabilities

Burglars will always seek to target any weak entry points. Our experienced locksmiths will identify potential security risks, such as unsecured back doors, poorly lit areas, or outdated security systems, and suggest practical improvements.

Alarm and CCTV checks

If you already have an alarm system or CCTV installed, we will check that they are fully functional and strategically positioned. If you don’t have one, we will provide recommendations on the best security systems for your home.

Outdoor security

We will assess your property’s outdoor security, including garden gates, fences, sheds, and lighting. Our security experts will advise on motion sensor lights, security cameras, and reinforced locks for sheds and garages.

Emergency preparedness

Equally as important as all of the above is a review of your home’s emergency exit routes and provide advice on fire escape plans and security solutions that ensure both safety and security.

Lost my front door key on hols so was dreading getting back and having to wait around for a locksmith. Called Lock and Key they were here within half an hour took less than that to open the door and replace the lock. Given plenty of spare keys the locksmith was efficient and friendly and didn't cost the earth. Highly recommended.

Came within an hour Sunday evening. Explained and showed me the damage that had caused the jam and broken key and gave me a fair quote for the repair. Replaced the lock and handle mechanism and thoroughly checked everything, even adjusted the door mountings as they were out. Brilliant job and smashing fella, wholeheartedly recommend.

Having found that the French doors would not lock on Sunday evening I phoned lock and key Barnsley. I gave a description of the problem and John gave me a quote for what he thought the problem would be but explained if it was something else he may have to adjust the quote. He said he could be with me in 30 minutes, it was actually more like 20 minutes. He checked the lock and confirmed it was the issue we had discussed. John completed the required work promptly and with minimum fuss. He left me with a receipt for the work, after demonstrating the new lock working. Very happy with this service and would recommend.
