Shop lock repairs in Leicestershire
After lost keys or a change of staff at your Leicestershire premises, a new cylinder is often enough, and the lock case can stay.
Insurance conditions can name particular lock standards, so check your policy before we change a lock on premises in Leicestershire or elsewhere in the East Midlands. Shops in Leicestershire and the rest of the East Midlands must keep fire exits usable, so we check that any new lock still lets people leave.

Common questions
Do you cover all of Leicestershire?
Yes. ShopFronts UK works across Leicestershire, including Coalville, Hinckley, Leicester, Loughborough.
Can I lock a fire exit at night?
Only while the building is empty. Whenever people are inside, an emergency door must open without a key. The Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 sets this in England and Wales, and Scotland and Northern Ireland have their own fire safety law.
Do I need a new lock or just a new cylinder?
Often just a new cylinder. If keys are lost or the key is stiff, changing the cylinder usually solves it. If the bolt is worn, the case is bent or the door has been forced, the lock case needs replacing, which we confirm from photos or a visit.
What lock do I need for my insurance?
Your policy decides that, so read the security conditions or ask your broker. Some policies name BS 3621 locks or set other terms. We can tell you what is fitted and what the door can take, but the insurer decides whether it meets their conditions.
