Local housing stock and what it means for your locks
Lambeth housing is broadly Heavy mix — Victorian terraces in Brixton and Streatham, post-war estates in Vauxhall, modern flats along the South Bank. Many ex-LA flats retain original 1960s door layouts with non-compliant locks.
Recommended locks for Lambeth properties
Avocet ABS, Ultion, BS3621 mortice locks for individual flats.
Crime and security context
Brixton and Streatham see persistent residential burglary — TS007 3-star and sash jammers are van stock here. 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.
