Coleraine locksmith fixes faulty MPL - 25th July 2022

From our office in Coleraine, we had a call from a customer that had been recommended by a previous customer (i love this). Unfortunately this is a common issue when the internal mechanism (gearbox) finally decides enough is enough and fails. As we have stated time after time if the locks feel 'different' then it is probably failing!! So, the process is finding out which type of gearbox we're playing with, finding whether its mushroom sliders, hooks etc. obviously while the door is locked shut. After a fairly lengthy process we finally got the door open. Indeed, it was a failed gearbox. We changed this for a new like for like gearbox and a new Versa anti-snap Euro cylinder. Once again Lockforce repaired and secured another property plus everything comes with a 12-month guarantee.
 

New home needs updated security protection - 20th July 2022

In sunny Coleraine we had a call from a homeowner looking to make sure his new house is secure. Getting started in your new house starts with new security especially new locks as the new owners/tenants in properties have no idea who has a key from the previous occupiers. This particular property had French doors to the front along with a stand-alone front door and exactly the same to the rear (French doors + standard door). We suggested that we can fit a key ALIKE system in which one key fits numerous lock. Our customer liked that idea! which made it easier than having 6 separate keys for 6 doors (French doors have a lock on each door side so 2 per set). They have a much simpler set up now, the front 3 locks all operate under one key and the rear 3 locks also operate under the one key. 2 keys in total for 6 locks makes things less 'messy' plus they have 4 spare keys each. Our customer is safe and probably not as confused as they would be with 6 sets of keys.

Lost back door keys calls for local locksmith in Coleraine - 14th July 2022

At our office in Coleraine we received a call from a customer that had lost their rear door keys. Eager to get their bins out for the following mornings collection we arrived promptly. The process of opening their door was done in a few minutes. We replaced their keyless cylinder with a Versa anti-snap euro cylinder. Also as we usually do we completely checked over the mechanism and keeps plus a little grease. We are happy to report the bin was indeed emptied thanks to Lockforce locksmiths.

Sorting the lock problem before complete lock failure in Coleraine - 1st July 2022

We received a call to our Coleraine office with a customer requesting a lock change because it wasn't 'feeling right'. I put this particular job up as this is exactly the right thing to do!! As we've always stated 'if your locks do not feel right get an expert in'. This case as in 99% of these calls the lock was indeed faulty and on the verge of completely failing. If this failed completely the customer would be looking at a much larger bill and a lot more inconvenience. Fortunately our customer took the right time to call us for a straight forward lock change.

Emergency lock out late night in Coleraine - 24th June 2022

A call was taken late Sunday evening through our emergency line. We had a customer in Coleraine locked out and desperate to get in their house. Lockforce locksmiths Coleraine arrived within 40 mins of the call. This time they had a spare key but unfortunately it was posted through their letterbox an hour before... extremely bad luck. This occasion we had to gain access via drilling the lock and then replacing it with a more secure Versa anti-snap lock with 5 keys. Hopefully they have plenty of keys now and this won't happen again.

Replacing faulty lock in Coleraine - 20th June 2022

This job from our Coleraine office was the result of us recommending a new lock on their rear door as we were servicing their front door alignment. Our engineer noticed that their lock was turning very roughly and notified the customer of this. They decided not to replace the lock at that time. Unfortunately within 3 weeks the lock indeed failed! This job now went from a simple lock change to a more expensive gain entry... After gaining entry we promptly installed a Versa anti-snap as standard. Please if you have any doubts with your locks (doors and windows) contact Lockforce locksmiths asap.

New lock for shop door in Coleraine - 14th June 2022

We had a call to our office in Coleraine from a shop owner looking for extra security on their shop. The shop had shutters but as the customer worked up the stairs in the shop it was preferred that the door was locked while they were with customers. The door hadn't used its lock for a few years (even the previous tenants didn't have the key). Needless to say, we installed a brand-new Maxus anti-snap euro profile cylinder. The business owner can now work safe in mind their shop is secure.

Replacing some dated locks in Coleraine - 6th June 2022

A job came in to our Coleraine office asking for 2 locks to be replaced as there not operating properly. As one was an external door (rear) we arrived ASAP. The locks were a 5-lever sash lock for the rear door and a 3-lever sash lock for the utility room/garage which we installed promptly. So, as we finished the last lock, going through the testing and cleaning up stage the customer informed us that the utility/kitchen door was starting to jam also (which isn't suprising as all locks there were over 15 years old and in constant use). We also changed this 3-lever lock with a Satin finish. All checked and all working as they should. Another satisfied customer for Lockforce locksmiths.

Emergency locksmith after locked out with no keys in Coleraine - 30th May 2022

We received a call from a customer in Coleraine who had lost their key and had no spare. This is a job we get quite regularly and is normally a bit tricky as 9/10 the doors are locked. Fortunately on this occasion our customer was needing to lock up and go out so the lock change was fairly straight forward. As always at Lockforce Coleraine we only supply and fit anti-snap euro cylinders as our 'basic' lock. So, we now have a happy and secure customer with 5 spare keys.. just incase.

Front door jammed shut to home in Coleraine - 20th May 2022

We had a call to our Coleraine office from a troubled customer that were having an issue with their front door, it would neither unlock or open. Having arrived and assessed the problem it became clear that the gearbox was defective. Sometimes on certain gearboxes a heavy spring breaks on the latch which meant the handle when pulled will not release the sliders and hooks from the keep on the frame. This type of job required tactical drill holes (within the handle cover) to find the bolt throw and the latch (2 different areas). Having released the bolt and pushed up the latch snib we got their door open. Replacing the broken gearbox and lining up the door were straight forward plus the original handles covered up any drill holes and finally a brand new Versa anti-snap cylinder was fitted. Everything is secure and working properly.

Key extracted after being stuck in lock in door, Coleraine - 10th May 2022

Lockforce Locksmith Coleraine had a lady call from Coleraine stating that her key was stuck in her already faulty lock, very similar to a job earlier this week where a friend tried to help and fix the problem but ended up with the key stuck. Even though the key was only stuck in halfway the poor condition of the lock was not releasing the key at all. We managed to pick the lock and promptly replace it. Remember to call a professional if there are any issues with your locks otherwise it normally ends up costing the customer more as the issue is made worse.

Bedroom window jammed shut in Coleraine - 4th May 2022

Lockforce Locksmith Coleraine was contacted by a lady in Coleraine who was very frustrated by not being able to open her bedroom window. This type of job is normally due to a lost or broken mechanism. Upon arrival the problem was a lost key or lots of window keys but none seemed to fit this particular one. We took to our picks and had the window open in a few seconds which was good news to both of us as it was very hot. Replacing the handle took less than 5 minutes, after this was complete i offered to check her other windows and doors free of charge as always. We found another window that was potentially about to fail but was able to save it by a quick tighten and grease. All secure and usable once again.

So this key hadn't snapped at the end of the cylinder it had broken off further down the chamber. After trying for a few minutes with various techniques we was unable to retrieve the key.

I assured them that i will be with them as soon as possible and i will get them into there house and get to there dog.

New locks for added home security in Coleraine - 22/10/21

Lockforce Locksmith Coleraine received a call from a local resident who had just moved in to a new property in Coleraine and since moving in noticed some valuable missing from inside her property.

The customer was very grateful and feels a 100% safer and happier now.
