Greetings, fellow Canterbury residents! Have you ever wondered what a day in the life of a local locksmith is like? <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Helping a Lovely Couple with a Tricky Front Door Lock<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n


One sunny morning, I received a call from a lovely couple residing in Canterbury. They were facing a bit of a predicament with their wooden front door, which had a multipoint lock fitted. It just wasn’t working smoothly. After a quick assessment, I managed to find the perfect replacement lock <\/a>through my network in the trade. With a one-year guarantee to keep the customers safe, I swiftly installed the new lock, leaving them with peace of mind.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Changing Locks for a Block of Flats<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n


Canterbury boasts a variety of beautiful flats and one day, I had the pleasure of changing locks for a block of flats that I manage. I ensured that the tenants had their keys a few days before I scheduled the lock change. It was important to use a non-restricted cylinder, as that’s precisely what the tenants preferred. A simple, yet crucial task in maintaining the security of the building.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sometimes, it’s the little mishaps that make my day. I received a call from a lovely lady who had misplaced her garage key. No problem! With my trusty tools, I picked the lock open and installed a new one. To make sure she wouldn’t face this issue again, I provided her with three spare keys. She was delighted to have access to her garage once more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Rescuing a Customer Let Down by Another Locksmith<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n


It’s not uncommon to receive calls from people who have been let down by other locksmiths. One day, I arrived at a job where a customer had faced such a situation. They had a lovely old but very thin front door that needed an upgrade. To meet insurance compliance standards, I fitted a
British standard deadlock<\/a>. Now, their door not only looks more secure but is, in fact, much safer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
