If you’ve ever had a break-in or know someone who has, you’ll know the first thing insurance companies ask: “What locks are on your door?”
It sounds small, but it’s a big deal. Most insurance companies require proper insurance-approved locks, and if your locks don’t meet British Standards, they might not pay out.
That’s where we come in. We fit and replace insurance approved locks in Chelsea and all across London, proper British Standard locks, not cheap ones from a DIY shop.
Give us a call on 07442137578 to discuss your door lock needs.

British standard locks Chelsea
Additional security and peace of mind
Basically, they’re locks that have been independently tested by the British Standards Institution (sometimes called the British Standards Institute, same thing). They check the lock against all sorts of attack methods: snapping, drilling, picking, bumping, you name it, and only the good ones pass.
These are the ones that count as “insurance approved.”
You’ll usually spot a little Kite Mark or a British Standard number stamped on the face plate of the lock. If it’s there, you’re covered. If it’s not, your home insurance might not count it.
We deal with a comprehensive range of these locks every day:
Each one’s been tested to make sure it’ll resist forced entry, keep you secure, and meet the insurance-approved security standard your provider expects.
A British Standard lock isn’t just a fancy label. It’s proof that your lock’s been certified, properly tested, and built to a serious security standard.
Every British Standard lock goes through checks by the British Standards Institution, making sure it can handle forced entry and attack methods used by burglars.
You’ll find British Standard locks on the front door of most secure homes and business properties around Chelsea and London.
Typically, you find that they come with security features such as:
You can think of it like a guarantee, when you see that little Kite Mark, you know the lock’s up to scratch (just be sure to get your new locks installed by professional locksmiths!).

If you’ve got a wooden door, it probably uses a mortice lock. These are the classic five-lever designs everyone recognises.
They’re solid, they’re strong, and when you fit a proper BS3621 mortice lock, your insurance company will be happy.
The five levers make it harder to pick, and the bolt is built to resist cutting or sawing.
We fit all types of mortice locks in Chelsea, including deadlocks and sash locks, and every one we fit is insurance approved.
Don’t wait for it to fail completely: that’s when you end up calling an emergency locksmith in the middle of the night.

You might wonder why insurers require specific locks. It’s simple — they want proof that your home security meets a certain security level.
