Old Street's dynamic mix of architecture presents unique locksmithing challenges, especially in warehouse and loft conversions. Many of these flats, located in former industrial buildings off City Road and Bunhill Row, feature heavy timber and steel-faced doors.
We're well-versed in handling these robust materials, ensuring security without compromising the building's character.
Our expertise covers fitting BS3621 mortice deadlocks, as well as Banham or Chubb cylinders, into deep-revealed frames. It's essential to work with precision to avoid splitting the old timber, a task we approach with care and experience.
We also understand the importance of preserving original ironmongery, which adds to the unique charm of these conversions.
