Burglary Repair Romford

What We Install Post-Burglary

After a burglary, ensuring your property's security is vital. We immediately focus on upgrading your locks to meet top standards. Our priority is installing TS007 3-Star anti-snap euro cylinders on all external doors, as these are critical to prevent future break-ins. Most insurers require this level of security post-claim, so it keeps your cover valid.

For wooden doors, we retain or upgrade to BS3621 mortice deadlocks. In areas like Ilford and Upminster, where heritage is important, we service original mortices. If necessary, we replace them to maintain security without compromising style.

We also inspect UPVC and composite doors for damage, replacing gearboxes if needed. Adding key-operated locks to ground-floor windows in Dagenham and Rainham is vital for added safety.

For homes in the Becontree estate and Chadwell Heath, we upgrade back and side door cylinders to the 3-Star standard, ensuring thorough protection.

Insurance Documentation Pack for Local Claims

While dealing with the aftermath of a burglary, having the right insurance documentation is crucial to ease the claims process.

We provide an extensive insurance documentation pack that lets you swiftly submit your claim. Our pack includes an itemised invoice with lock product codes, photographs of the forced area before and after, and a written statement detailing the installed specifications against insurer requirements.

You'll find before-and-after photos of the cylinder, clearly showing the 3-Star Diamond marking. Additionally, we include a copy of our public liability insurance certificate and confirmation that our work meets BS3621 and TS007 3-Star standards.

Most local insurers, such as Hiscox, Aviva, and Direct Line, accept our documentation directly.

For Emerson Park and Upminster residences, we also cater to high-net-worth insurance requirements.

Our aim is to make your post-burglary recovery as smooth as possible. Call us at 020 4530 8380 to schedule.

Whole-Property Lock Audit Once Secure

After securing your property post-burglary, it's crucial to conduct a thorough lock audit. We can't stress enough how important it's to verify every entry point is fortified.

The audit begins with checking all door locks, including front, back, and side entrances. Each lock should meet UK insurance specifications, like the BS3621 or TS007 3-Star Kitemark for optimum security.

Windows are often overlooked, so let's examine those locks too. Even the smallest window can be a potential entry point.

We'll assess the integrity of your UPVC and composite door multipoint systems, confirming they're functioning correctly.

We also recommend considering smart-lock installations for added convenience and security. Our team at HHM Ivan's Locksmith is ready to guide you through these options and keep your home protected.
