Town, SW6

Under £100
I live in a block of relatively new (completed 2009) flats in Parsons Green. The exterior lock on the front door of my flat (which controls the deadbolt) has recently developed a problem. When the key is inserted from the outside, it spins around and around but does not engage the lock. Sometimes it can take five-ten minutes of spinning the key before it 'catches' and I am able to unlock the deadbolt. From the inside, the deadbolt is quite sticky. I've stopped using it because I'm worried about being unable to unlock it. I also have a minor problem with the lock on my internal bathroom door - it is very sticky.
Unfortunately I was locked out and had to contact a 24-hour locksmith to sort out my lock before Keyworks was able to quote for me. However, I was impressed by their speedy response to my enquiry and would be happy to recommend them.

Hammersmith Broadway, W12

Under £250
I have a fault on my standalone domestic Nexus 8 alarm panel which caused it to sound last night. I have managed to disable the sounder, but the alarm is currently inoperable and needs fixing and the original fault needs finding. The system is installed over two floors in a Victorian house with four PIR detectors and one keypad display. The system was installed in 2005 and last serviced then. Ideally I'd like someone to come on Tuesday 15/05/12 at 4pm in the London W12 area.
On time, quick and very professional. Great job.

Security specialists

If you want to improve your home's security, security specialists can advise you on what can be done and how best to protect your home. Alternatively, if you already have an alarm fitted, you may want to get a specialist in to check that it's working properly.

Types of security alarms

If you want to fit an alarm, there are various types available and prices vary enormously. Some alarm installations are more disruptive than others - for instance some need extensive wiring while others don't, and this may affect your choice depending on whether you're in the middle of a renovation project or not. And if you're going to install an alarm then you might want to think about security lights outside and maybe even CCTV to put off potential burglars.

Pick a security alarm specialist

At Rated People you can find security specialists who are rated by their previous customers they have found through the site. The ratings that others have left allow you to get a good idea of the quality of work and professionalism of the three security specialists we find for you, before you even meet them. Once you've picked the best and the job is complete, you can leave your own feedback on how the job went and what your tradespeople were like to work with.

Not ready?

If you're not ready to post your job yet, don't worry, there's more information on the site to help you make the right choices and know what to do when you're ready to find a tradesperson.

Locksmiths and security specialists

While many types of home improvements are for cosmetic purposes, home security is something that everyone should consider carefully to ensure the safety of their property and their family. Locksmiths and security specialists can take care of all aspects of home security for you, so you can feel safe and secure in your home.

What do locksmiths do?

The general nature of a locksmith’s job has not changed for hundreds of years, although the locks and security technology they use have advanced dramatically. Locksmiths can fit new locks to keep your home secure, and repair malfunctioning or damaged ones. Emergency locksmiths can also come to your rescue if you’ve lost your key, as they can open the lock without damaging the door, and then fit a replacement for you if necessary.

Types of locksmith and security specialist services

Locksmiths carry out a variety of functions aimed at helping homeowners maintain and boost their home security. If your property has old, outdated locks that might be easily forced or broken into, you might want to employ their services to update your security with more modern locks.

As well as fitting and repairing door locks, locksmiths can also cut new keys to use as spares, or to replace ones which have been lost.

While some locksmiths specialise solely in repairing and replacing locks, others also act as security specialists. A security specialist can further improve your home security by installing additional measures designed to keep out intruders. Common security installations performed by a security specialist include CCTV systems, alarms, window bars, security fencing/gates and digital passcode locks.

A security specialist can also offer you in-depth advice and guidance on how best to secure your home and deter intruders.
