Making it harder next time
Most break-ins in the UK come through snapped euro cylinders or weak frames. While we're there we'll walk every door and window with you and suggest sensible upgrades: anti-snap cylinders, London bars, sash jammers, hinge bolts. No hard sell — just what actually stops the next one.
Secure again tonight
A break-in is horrible, and the worst part is often the hours afterwards with a door that won't shut. Falcon Locksmith treats burglary repairs as priority jobs: ring us after you've spoken to the police and we'll get an engineer to you the same day — the same evening in most cases — to board up, make the property secure and let you sleep.
Door, frame and lock repairs
Forced entry usually splits the frame around the strike plate or snaps the cylinder. We repair or reinforce the frame, replace strike plates and keeps with longer screws into the structure, fit new British Standard locks and, where the door itself is beyond saving, board it securely until a replacement is in. Glass panels can be boarded and the glazier booked.
Paperwork your insurer will accept
Every burglary repair comes with a written report describing the damage, the point of entry and the work done, plus a dated receipt showing the lock grades fitted. Get your crime reference number from the police first — the insurer will ask for both — and we'll email the report before the engineer has left your street.
