Cylinder Locks – What You Need to Know Before Replacing

 

🔑 Found on Most Residential & Garage Doors – Choosing the Right One Matters:

Cylinder locks are a common security feature on homes and garages, but replacing them can be tricky for customers.
✔ Different sizes & security ratings – Choosing the wrong one can leave your home vulnerable.
✔ Insurance-approved specifications – Not all locks meet British Standard requirements.
✔ Beware of fake & mis-sized locks – Some online retailers sell non-compliant locks that may invalidate your home insurance policy.

💰 Cylinder Lock Pricing:
✔ Non-British Standard Cylinders: From £11 (not insurance-approved).
✔ British Standard Cylinders: Around £25–£80 (most common in Gateshead).


✔ High-Security Cylinders: Up to £180 for premium locks.

 

💡 For expert installation and peace of mind, always choose a trusted locksmith to ensure proper fitment and security!

Multi-Point Mechanism Replacement – What You Need to Know
gearbox, upvc door lock Taylors Locksmiths Logo, branding, Gateshead Locksmith Service

🔧 Essential for UPVC & Composite Doors | Drives Hooks & Bolts | Expert Installation Required

A multi-point mechanism, also known as a gearbox, is the core component inside UPVC and composite doors. 

It controls the movement of hooks and bolts, ensuring smooth locking and unlocking. While the lock cylinder is separate, the mechanism is operated by the handles and plays a vital role in door security.

📞 Need a multi-point mechanism replacement? Call Taylors Locksmiths Gateshead – 07525639943!

🔎 Why Do Multi-Point Mechanisms Fail?

✔ Doors dropping in the frame – Excess pressure can damage the mechanism over time.
✔ Hard-to-use handles & lock issues – A failing gearbox leads to stiff locking or total failure.
✔ Wear & tear over years of use – Most mechanisms are replaced, not repaired, due to complexity.

 

🚫 DIY Warning: Fitting and adjusting these mechanisms requires specialised training. Attempting a DIY repair can make the problem worse, increasing costs for professional repairs.

 

💡 Always use an experienced locksmith to replace your multi-point mechanism properly!

 

💰 Multi-Point Mechanism Pricing

✔ Labour: £54.99 per hour (Most replacements done in under an hour)
✔ Parts: £28 – £250 (Depending on make & model)

 

💡 Avoid costly mistakes—expert replacement ensures your door remains secure and functional!

Garage Door Locks - Found of the majority of older garages
garage door lock, Gateshead Locksmiths, replace this lock from just £69 including labour!

These locks are found on garage doors throughout the Tyne and Wear area and we will charge around £44.99 to gain entry and if you needed a new one fitted then they are from around £14 for us to buy, so expect to pay around £65 total depending on make and model

Mortise Door Lock - Common in wooden doors!
Mortise lock Taylors Locksmiths Logo, branding, Gateshead Locksmith Service

These mortise locks are a pain for locksmith to deal with, most of us hate dealing them as they are difficult to work on, they are extremely hard to pick open with a very high skill level required. It takes around 3000 hours 

of practice to be able to turn up to a random door with no lock brand ID and to be able to use speciality tools to open these locks. The tools alone are in the £1000s of pounds for all the different variants to buy. Then add in the fact we are on our knees for up to an hour or more in the cold, dark wet, with a customer that wants to be in fast. It all adds pressure as we are listening for small scrapes and clicks inside the lock. For this reason most locksmiths will charge £80 plus for entry. But expect to pay around £120 to £180 for entry and new lock fitted. Once the door is open the locksmith then may have to work on the wood, resizing the mortice hole and using fillers, paints etc.
