Local housing stock and what it means for your locks
Westminster housing is broadly Period mansion blocks and converted flats dominate; mixed with extensive new-build around Paddington Basin and Victoria. Most jobs are communal entry door fobs and overrides rather than individual flat lock changes.
Recommended locks for Westminster properties
Banham, Mul-T-Lock restricted profile, electromagnetic locks for communal entries.
Crime and security context
Theft and unauthorised entry are far more common than residential burglary; communal door security is our highest demand 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.
