purchase house changing locks
32 Answers
ok so I am about to complete on a house and change the locks what do I need to know about this, it's my first house.
How do I find a good locksmith who is not just going to keep a copy of the keys or sell a copy to his mate so they can break in?? Or does this never happen?

For more on marking an answer as the "Best Answer", please visit our FAQ.Mac's right. uPVC doors usually have "Euro Locks". You just slide out the old barrel and fit the new one. (Look for the grubscrew holding them in).
Just one thing ............... buy the Eurolocks in a set ............. then they will be "keyed alike" ................ that means, if you have for instance 4 doors, then one key will fit them all ................ saves a lot of labelling etc

I change the locks every time I move house. I don`t think it is anything to worry about but it is just a safeguard to give you peace of mind. The first flat I bought had a Yale lock and I managed to change it myself by replacing the barrel. When my mother bought a house near me last year and found out that the previous occupant was an alcoholic bi-polar sufferer, she changed the locks as well. We found a good reliable locksmith from Check A Trade who charged a reasonable price. Get some reccommedations and change the locks if you want to. It will give you peace of mind
