Do you work outside business hours for commercial premises?

Yes. We can work before opening, after closing or at weekends to minimise disruption to your business. For emergency call-outs we are available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, with no premium for out-of-hours work.

What is a master key system and does my business need one?

A master key system allows one key to open all doors while individual staff members hold keys that only open specific doors relevant to their role. It eliminates the need for multiple key sets and gives you full control over who can access which areas. It is particularly useful for offices, multi-tenanted properties and retail premises with stock rooms.

Can you change locks on a commercial premises the same day?

Yes. We carry commercial-grade cylinders and lock components on the van and cover Ipswich and Suffolk same day. Call us with your door type and we will give you a response time and price indication before we arrive.
