Hi all,
Just waiting on the exchange of my first house purchase (hopefully in the next couple weeks) and wanted to ask whether people here had the locks changed when they bought their place? Seems common sense to me as you have no idea who may have been given keys in the past?
If so did you do it yourself or hire somebody to do it? I'm not handy so would hope to be able to hire someone to come change all the external locks, preferably to the same barrels so that I can have one key to open all doors?
Buying in Stoke, so any recommendations for companies are welcome
an idea of the cost to replace the locks on front back and garage would be useful too (5 lever mortice on front n back and a key with two bolts on garage I am told).
Cheers for any info
