Shop lock repairs Northern Ireland

Shops in Northern Ireland and the rest of the area must keep fire exits usable, so we check that any new lock still lets people leave. Insurance conditions can name particular lock standards, so check your policy before we change a lock on premises in Northern Ireland or elsewhere in the area.

Which towns do you cover?

Common questions

Do you cover all of Northern Ireland?

Yes. ShopFronts UK works across Northern Ireland, including Antrim, Armagh, Ballymena, Bangor, County Down. Remote areas are by arrangement.

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.

Can you fit a stronger lock to an aluminium door?

Often yes, within the limits of the door's stile. Narrow aluminium stiles restrict the size of case they can take, so we measure before ordering. A three-star cylinder and a good hookbolt are common improvements, and a stronger keep can help too.

A lock was damaged in a break-in. What should I do?

Call our 24/7 emergency line, because a door that cannot lock is an emergency, and we'll tell you the arrival time when you call. We can provide photos and an itemised invoice for your insurer, but only they can decide whether a claim is paid.

Do the same rules apply in Northern Ireland?

Rules differ in Northern Ireland, so we confirm what applies to your premises before work starts.
