Types of Locks We Supply & Fit
Not sure which lock is right for your door? We'll advise you on the best option for your home or business — and we supply and fit everything. Here's an overview of the lock types we work with.
Internal & external doors - Mortice locks
UPVC & composite doors - Euro cylinders
Front & back doors - Night latches
Spring-bolt locks that lock automatically when the door closes. Often used alongside a mortice lock.
Older wooden doors - Rim locks
Mounted on the surface of the door rather than recessed in. Common on older properties.
High security - Deadbolts
Can only be opened with a key – no spring mechanism. Highly resistant to forced entry.
Cylinders - Oval cylinders
An oval-profile alternative to the euro cylinder, used in some door types and older locks.
Cylinder locks - Rim cylinders
Used in rim locks and night latches. Easy to replace when upgrading older door security.
UPVC & composite - Multi-point locks
Lock at multiple points along the door edge simultaneously. Standard on most modern UPVC and composite doors.
Commercial & cabinets - Cam locks
Compact, rotating locks used in filing cabinets, lockers, electrical panels and light commercial doors.
Outbuildings & gates - Padlocks
We supply and fit quality padlocks for sheds, garages, gates and commercial outbuildings.
Burglary Repair - Locks, Doors & Frames
What we repair
Everything a forced entry can damage
When a door is forced, the damage is often not limited to the lock. Door frames split, architrave is ripped away, beading comes loose, and timber around the frame can be cracked or splintered. In some cases the door itself needs replacing. Because we are both locksmiths and carpenters, we can address all of this:
Lock replacement
New lock supplied and fitted to make your home secure again immediately.
Door repair or replacement
Wooden, UPVC and composite doors repaired or fully replaced as needed.
Frame & architrave repair
Split or damaged frames and architrave repaired and made good.
Timber repair
Rotten or damaged timber around doors and windows replaced properly.
Help with insurance claims
If you’re making an insurance claim following a break-in, we can provide detailed information about the work carried out and the parts fitted. Ask us about this when you call.
You're in safe hands
Goff’s Locks is fully DBS checked. We work quickly, cleanly and with respect for your home. Our goal is to leave your property secure, repaired and looking as it should — as soon as possible after the break-in.
