Below is a list and breakdown of the services that J.Willem Locksmiths provide:

​

Lock Installations (Smart Locks and Electric strikes too!)

​

Wooden doors, Aluminium doors, Steel Doors, Security doors, Egress doors, Fire doors, Sliding Doors, Roller Doors, Tilt-a-Doors, Sliding Windows, Awning Windows, Mailboxes, Wardrobes, Cupboards, Hatches, Toolboxes, Manholes, Safes..... Anything!!

Show us the door and we'll fit a lock to it!

We have fit a lock to each of these many times over the course of 20 years. Needless to say, we are lock fitting experts.

There are many different types of lock to suit many different applications, and most of the time locks can be matched to your current key for convenience, or changed if more security is needed. Please don't hesitate to call, and we offer a free onsite survey/quote to make sure we get the right type of lock to suit.

We are also very experienced with the more well-known brands of smart lock (Samsung, Yale, Lockly), as well as some other lesser-known (but just as good) brands. Smart locks are a great alternative to having physical keys, but there are always drawbacks (especially when using with Wi-Fi) and we will always do an on-site survey (FREE!) to make sure the door is compatible before any purchase. Same applies for Electric strikes.

Lockouts

​

Well, it happens to the best of us... Door shuts behind and ....click....

We will get you back in, and damage to the door and lock is an absolute last option. We pride ourselves on being highly skilled locksmiths, and this means either picking the lock or using lock manipulation techniques, which have been trained and refined over 100's of years.

Lock/Door Repairs

If a lock isn't working as it should, then of course we can try to repair it.

We carry a vast array of spare parts for most common locks. Sometimes it is a much better and cheaper option to simply replace a worn component in a lock rather than replace the whole thing. Door frames and housing foundations can also shift, and this can result in the lock and strike being out of alignment, and thus not locking (very simple and cheap repair usually).

Damaged door frames/strikes can also be repaired, even after break-ins.

Rekeys (Locks Changed)

 

If you've lost your keys, or if they have fallen into the wrong hands, then this is what we will do.

We change the pins inside the lock to a new combination, and then the old keys don't work anymore. Usually there is no need to replace any of the locks (depending on their condition, type etc.), so this is a cost-effective way to bring about peace of mind.

Garage remote re-programming also comes under this category, as most of the time we can delete all the current remotes out of the motor, then re-program the remotes you still have back in again.

​

Keys Cut

​

We carry a key-cutter and some of the most common types of keys with us in the van.

Safe Openings

 

Yes... we can open safes! However, there are limitations on what we will and won't do. If it's something we won't do, then we can refer you to someone who will. Please call/text/e-mail the number above for further information.

​

Master Key Systems

​

Picture you're the director of a company with a warehouse/office setup. You need a key which grants you access to every single door in the building. But the receptionist needs a key which only grants them front office access, and the warehouse staff can only have access to the warehouse, and the cleaners have access to all doors EXCEPT server room etc. etc.

We have encountered these situations numerous times over 20 years. We will conduct a full FREE survey/quote, and break down every need required to ensure your access control runs as smoothly as can be.

We have contacts in the access control industry as well, so it is possible to have electric strikes/RFID cards, all guided by a central monitoring system that keeps track of everything coming and going. Locks can also be set to work at certain hours of the day, there can be bio-metrics/pin-codes involved, an alarm system can be run with it too.... the possibilities are nearly endless.
