After a Break-InMaking Your Property Secure Again.
Forced entry can leave more than a broken lock. The door, frame, keep, locking hardware or a window may also have been damaged.
Our first priority is to assess the entry point and determine what is needed to make the property secure. Depending on the damage, that may involve repairing the door or frame, replacing a compromised lock, attending to damaged locking hardware or boarding up an opening that cannot be permanently repaired straight away.
If the break-in has left you unable to secure the property and you need immediate locksmith assistance, our 24-hour emergency locksmith service in Bromley is available for urgent problems.

Forced-Entry DamageWhat Can We Repair After a Burglary?
Break-ins and attempted break-ins can damage several parts of a door or window. We assess the actual damage before deciding what can be repaired and what needs replacing.
Forced & Damaged Locks
Locks that have been forced, snapped, drilled, broken or otherwise compromised during an attempted or successful break-in.
Damaged Door Frames
Split, damaged or weakened areas around the frame, keep or strike point can be assessed as part of the post-burglary repair.
Window Security Damage
Where forced entry has affected window locks or related locking hardware, we can assess the damage and available repair options.
Door Damage
Damage around the locking area, keeps and related door hardware can often be repaired without automatically replacing the complete door.
Emergency Boarding Up
If a damaged door or window opening cannot be permanently repaired immediately, we can board it up to help secure the property.
Compromised Security
After repairs, we can identify locks or entry points affected by the break-in and discuss sensible security improvements where appropriate.
Make-Safe Repairs After a Break-In.
Not every burglary leaves the same damage. Sometimes the lock has taken the force; in other cases the frame, door or window has been damaged as well.
Where a practical permanent repair can be completed, we can repair or replace the affected components and check that the entry point secures correctly. If an opening cannot be properly repaired there and then, boarding up can provide a temporary way to secure it until the permanent repair is completed.
If keys have been stolen or a lock has been compromised, we can also change the affected lock. Our dedicated lock changes and repairs service in Bromley explains the replacement options in more detail.
