Additional Security

Additional Home Security in Harrow

Want to make your home harder to break into without replacing everything? There’s a lot of sensible, affordable additional security I can add across Harrow and the surrounding areas – and I’ll only recommend what actually makes a difference to your doors and windows. Labour from £89, no call-out fee.

The best security is layered: a good lock, a reinforced frame, and the little extras that turn an easy target into too much hassle. I’ll look at how your doors and windows would actually be attacked and add only what helps.

What I can add

  • Anti-snap cylinder upgrades
  • Extra deadbolts and mortice locks
  • Hinge bolts and London / Birmingham bars to reinforce frames
  • Rack bolts and locks for windows
  • Letterbox guards against “fishing”
  • Sash jammers on uPVC doors and windows

Mechanical security – honest advice

I do mechanical security – locks, bolts and physical reinforcement. I don’t fit alarms, CCTV or smart cameras; if that’s what you’re after I’ll point you elsewhere. What I do is make the actual doors and windows harder to force – and I won’t try to sell you a shopful of hardware you don’t need. (Smart and keypad locks are a separate service – see smart & digital locks.)
