Changing Locks After Moving Home in Tonwell
A new address around Ware Road, Chappell Court, Barley Croft or Bourne Honour may come with several sets of old keys. Changing the relevant entrance locks can reduce uncertainty about who has access.

Original timber doors may benefit from preserving sound furniture instead of an unnecessary full mechanism replacement.

What to Tell Us Before a Tonwell Locksmith Visit
Give your complete SG12 postcode and a reference point such as Tonwell Village Hall, St Mary’s school, Ware Road, Bourne Honour, Barley Croft, Temple Lane or Chappell Court. Explain whether the key is inside, missing, snapped, spinning freely or stuck; and whether your door is timber, composite or uPVC. For rural properties towards Chapmore End or the A602, mention gates and access tracks. Clear images of the cylinder, handle and door edge help identify likely parts before a visit.
Photos of the outside handle, lock face and full door edge are especially useful for uPVC and composite doors. If the door operates normally when open but becomes difficult when closed, alignment may be involved; if the lock fails even with the door open, the cylinder or mechanism may require closer assessment.
