Local housing stock and what it means for your locks
Barnet housing is broadly Predominantly inter-war and post-war semis, with large Victorian terraces in High Barnet and Edwardian housing in East Finchley. Many homes in N2 and N3 use older Era and Chubb mortice locks that no longer meet insurance specs — straightforward like-for-like upgrades to BS3621.
Recommended locks for Barnet properties
BS3621 mortice locks, Ultion or Avocet ABS 3-star cylinders, Banham M2002 for higher-value properties.
Crime and security context
Hendon and Mill Hill experience persistent break-ins — we recommend TS007 3-star plus internal deadbolts. 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.
