One lock isn't always enough
Many flat and house doors on the coast have a single locking point. If the property stands empty for weeks out of season, or the shop faces a quiet street, an extra deadbolt multiplies the time and noise needed to force it.
The deadbolt works alongside your current lock; if you also want new keys, ideally we fit a security cylinder on the same visit.
When to fit a deadbolt
- Second homes closed up out of season.
- Wooden doors with a single lock.
- Shops, warehouses and storerooms.
- Doors to patios, terraces or garages.
- After an attempted break-in at the home or building.

- Bolts and inside deadbolts for service or terrace doors.
Good to know
Same key
In many cases the deadbolt can be keyed alike with the main lock so you only need one key.
The frame matters
A strong deadbolt needs a solid frame. If the frame is weak, we tell you first.
High-security doors
If your door is already a high-security one, see the options for Fichet locks before adding anything.
What affects the price of a deadbolt
- The deadbolt model and its cylinder.
- The material of the door and frame.
- Whether it is keyed alike with your current lock.
Quote first: you know the price before we drill anything.

FAQ: deadbolts
Can a deadbolt be fitted on any door?
On most wooden and metal doors, yes. Some aluminium or PVC doors need a specific model.
Can I use the same key as my lock?
Often yes, by fitting matching cylinders in both. We tell you whether it's possible with your door.
Does it leave marks on the door?
Fitting it requires drilling the door and frame. We leave it aligned with a clean finish.
I'm locked out with the deadbolt on: what do I do?
