New lock installation for homes and businesses across Kennington and SE11. We supply and fit quality British Standard locks for all door and window types — with expert advice on the best security solution for your property.
Whether you're improving the security of an existing door, fitting a new lock after a property purchase, or adding supplementary security to windows and gates, Lockstar Locksmith Kennington provides professional lock installation across SE11.
Correct lock installation is critical to security. A high-quality lock fitted incorrectly — with a misaligned keep, insufficient fixing depth, or incorrect backset — provides far less protection than its specification suggests. Our experienced locksmiths ensure every lock is fitted precisely and correctly, first time.
We install all types of door locks including Yale rim locks, 5-lever mortice deadlocks, euro cylinders, UPVC multipoint systems, and high-security locks from Mul-T-Lock, Banham, ERA, and Abloy. We also fit window locks, patio door locks, garage locks, and gate locks.
Before recommending a lock, we always assess your door type, frame condition, and security requirements. The best lock for a solid timber Victorian door is different to the best solution for a modern UPVC door or a composite door — we make sure you get the right product for your specific situation.
New lock installation on front doors — mortice deadlocks, cylinder locks, and multipoint systems for all door materials.
Additional lock fitting for back and side doors, often the most vulnerable entry points. BS3621 deadlock fitting recommended.
Sash window stops, UPVC window locks, and casement locks fitted to improve security on ground floor and accessible windows.
Patio door security bolts, multipoint lock upgrades, and additional locking points for sliding and French doors.
Heavy-duty padlocks, garage door locks, and gate bolt locks fitted to protect outbuildings and perimeter access points.
All installations comply with home insurance requirements — we can advise specifically on what your insurer requires.
