Common questions

Do you cover all of West Midlands?

Yes. ShopFronts UK works across West Midlands, including Aldridge, Bilston, Birmingham, Bloxwich.

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.

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.
