Do you have any concerns about the security of your home?

Older doors and windows can be a security risk. They can also reduce energy efficiency of your home, increasing energy bills and leading to draughts that increase the risk of your home becoming cold. Poorly fitted or damaged doors and windows that have not been well maintained can also increase the risk of water getting into your home. Your doors and windows may need improving, repairing or replacing.

Check out the Good Home Lincs information on Windows and Doors to find out more about looking after your doors and windows, finding an approved installer and paying for works.

Look out!

Broken locks or lost keys can be a security risk for your home. Broken locks can often be repaired or replaced to ensure you are able to keep your home safe and secure. Broken locks can leave your home at risk of burglary and may invalidate or impact your home insurance if they are not repaired or replaced.

Lost keys can be replaced, however, if you have lost a key to your home you should replace the lock to make sure anyone who finds it cannot enter your home without you knowing.

Check out the Good Home Lincs information on Security to find out more about how to resolve issues with broken locks or to find an approved locksmith near you.

Look out!

Broken locks, or lost or missing window keys can be a risk to the security of your home and the safety of the people who live in it. Windows that cannot be locked may make your home less secure and potentially invalidate your housing insurance. Windows that cannot be unlocked can reduce the number of escape routes in a fire and make it harder to properly ventilate your home.

Locks can be repaired or keys replaced without having to replace the whole window.
