Book a call-outLooking for a local locksmith in Balby? S Fretwell & Sons have helped many happy customers make their premises more secure, for both domestic and commercial property owners. We have various industry accreditations, including being on the South Yorkshire Police Approved Locksmith register, and years of practical experience and knowledge that make us among the best in the business.
S Fretwell & Sons offer a range of locksmith services across Balby and the Doncaster region, including:
For our commercial property owners and retail or office managers, we can install:
One of the most common issues we deal with is problems with external uPVC doors. Over time, the locks can perish, making it important to seek expert advice on a door lock upgrade and consider servicing your uPVC door to extend its life and maintain optimum security.
If you live in Balby, give us a call if you’re experiencing issues with faulty locks, door misalignment, or any other issue… a lock replacement is more affordable than buying a new door.
We recommend our customers consider Ultion door locks, a type of high-security, anti-snap lock designed to combat some of the most common methods of forced entry used by thieves.
Ultion locks have several features that enhance the security of your property. For example, the majority of standard door locks have five security pins, but these anti-snap locks have 11, capable of creating 294,970 different key combinations.
Not only this, the locks have a strong molybdenum core that’s 25% denser than iron, which helps prevent lock drilling and snapping. The product will go into lockdown mode if it’s tampered with, enhancing your home security.
Window locks can often break or stop functioning properly, and many people ignore the problem when this happens. However, as experienced locksmiths, we highly recommend that you consider getting your windows serviced, including window handles and mechanisms, before intruders have a chance to gain access to your home or business.
In addition to the services listed above, we also offer an emergency call-out service. Should you find yourself locked out of your property, or you’ve been the victim of a break-in, contact us and we will aim to be with you within the hour.
We have a mobile workshop, which enables us to carry out the majority of lock repairs and replacements on the spot. S Fretwell & Sons uses locks from all the biggest manufacturers, and whatever we fit will meet British Standards.
Our call-outs are free, which means that if we don’t fix the problem, you won’t be charged.
Wherever possible, we will repair rather than replace to keep the cost down for our customers.
If we do need to replace any parts, they are backed by our 2-year guarantee.
