The Follow-Up – Unexpected Internal Fault
A few days after installation, the customer got back in touch. The lock had developed an issue where one of the internal pins had jammed, making it difficult to operate.
This is not common, especially with a high-security cylinder like the Yale Platinum range, but like any mechanical component, faults can occasionally happen.
Our Response – No Fuss, No Delay
As soon as we were aware of the issue, we returned to the property in Cramlington and:
- Inspected the lock
- Confirmed internal failure
- Removed the faulty cylinder
- Supplied and fitted a brand new replacement
All carried out quickly, professionally, and at no cost to the customer under our fitted parts guarantee.
Transparent Pricing That Matches the Work
The original job was completed under our transparent pricing policy, with the first 3 star lock supplied and fitted for £110, exactly as advertised.
There were no hidden costs, no price changes on arrival, and no upselling.
Just as importantly, when the lock later developed a fault, we stood by both the product and the service.
We charge what we advertise, and we do what we say we do.
Why This Matters
Many customers worry about what happens after the job is done. Will the locksmith answer the phone? Will they return if there is a problem? Will there be arguments or delays?
This job shows exactly how we operate:
- No chasing
- No awkward conversations
- No passing blame
- No delay in putting it right
Just a straightforward guarantee honoured properly.
What Is a 3 Star High-Security Lock?
A TS007 3 star euro cylinder is designed to resist common methods of attack such as snapping, picking, drilling, and forced entry. It is one of the highest security standards available for domestic doors in the UK.
When replacing locks, we always aim to match or improve the existing level of security — never downgrade it.
