Local housing stock and what it means for your locks

Greenwich Peninsula towers run electronic access systems alongside mechanical override cylinders.
Recommended locks for Greenwich properties
Avocet ABS, Ultion, BS3621 mortice.
Crime and security context
Woolwich and Plumstead see persistent burglary — TS007 3-star is our default specification. We strongly recommend pairing any cylinder upgrade with an internal deadbolt on rear doors, key-locking handles on ground-floor windows, and a visual review of side and back gates. Every visit includes a free top-to-bottom security review with no obligation.
