Why Manchester Homes Need Professional Lock Services
Manchester has one of the highest burglary rates in England. Greater Manchester Police recorded over 22,000 residential burglaries in the last year alone. The most common method of entry is lock snapping — a technique that exploits weak euro cylinder locks found on millions of UPVC and composite doors across Manchester. Other common methods include lock bumping, picking, and forced entry through poorly secured back doors and windows. Investing in quality locks and proper security isn't just sensible in Manchester — it's essential.
Insurance Requirements for Manchester Properties
Many insurance companies in Manchester require specific lock standards to validate your home insurance policy. BS3621 approved mortice deadlocks are typically required on all final exit wooden doors, while UPVC and composite doors should have TS007 3-star rated cylinders or equivalent. If your Manchester home doesn't meet these requirements, your insurer could reduce or refuse a claim following a break-in. We ensure every lock we fit meets or exceeds the relevant British Standards, and we provide certification for your insurance company.
