I was a bit wary of buying a security product on the internet but I thought the Asec 5 pin looked to be a decent lock which I needed for a replacement in our Summer house. I also had experienced difficulty in finding this particular size at the usual DIY retailers so was pleased to find the exact size at Safe. The product arrived in good time and seemed to be very good quality but would it fit and how easy would this be? Well I need not have worried because fitting was simple and it is a lovely smooth action when locking and unlocking. Very happy and would recommend this firm.
I needed a lock cylinder to replace an existing unit that I could not get replacement keys for.
The level of security required was not high but I needed something with 8 keys to allow different people access.
The 5 pin Asec unit was the perfect choice. It was low cost but still well made and offered a good level of security. The service provided by Safe, including the provision of the extra keys required, was very good with an easy to use web site and prompt delivery. I would recommend the Asec 5 pin unit for any low / medium security requirement and I would recommend Safe as the first stop when looking for locks and cylinders.
We were worried that we may have to call in a locksmith when the 5 Pin Euro Double Cylinder on our back door started jamming, ie the key wouldn't turn in the lock anymore, but we looked on line and decided to see if we could buy the same one and try to fit it ourselves. We basically found various sites and took the old cylinder out and matched it up against photos on the various sites along with the sizing, and took a chance and ordered it; really surprised how easy it was to get the old one out and put the new one in for less than £20 without the aid of a locksmith. Highly recommended!
I needed an exact sized replacement for a failed cylinder but unfortunately I was unable to find a supplier anywhere locally. I therefore searched online and was pleased to find exactly what I required on the Safe website. Ordering was very easy and straightforward and I was very impressed with the excellent & prompt service provided by this company. Their range of products appears to be very good and, from what they supplied, the quality appears to be equally as good. From my experience I would most definitely deal with this company again and would not hesitate to recommend them.
Although the product was incorrectly ordered by myself the service I received to correct my mistake was second to none. I would recommend SAFE to anyone who requires an excellent service. and value for money. The product itself was of superior quality and was certainly fit for purpose.
It is a brilliant bit of kit. I couldn't believe how perfectly and easily it fitted where the old one had been. It also looks great and operates very smoothly. I must say that I was apprehensive about choosing the correct item but because the website was so clear it was remarkably easy to select from a large range of different dimension options and have the precise dimensions made clear on the website as to just where the dimensions are to be measured.
I was very chuffed with my result and would recommend these products and the company Safe to anybody.
We had a problem with our existing lock in that the key wouldn't come out when locked. I would usually call someone to come an fix it but googled what to do and it seemed straightforward so I thought I would have a go. Safe.co.uk came us as highly recommended from customer reviews and they made choosing the right size product easy and accurate. The lock arrived promptly and fitting it was easier than I had imagined, the whole job taking less than 5 minutes. Great product great price good service and excellent clear instructions. I highly recommend - brilliant
The website was easy to use and had all the information which I required about the lock. The size was what I needed and was correct for the lock body and door size. delivery was on time. Although there were no fitting instruction the website illustration made fitting an easy matter. I used it with the claw casing for a wooden sliding door. The length was perfect, as described and accurate. When fitted with an escutcheon plate it gave the whole door a really professional look. The lock works smoothly with a solid 'clunk' when locking, which is a very reassuring sound. With careful positioning of the lock keep the lock also prevented any attempt to lift the door and so made the whole arrangement feel much more secure.. I would recommend this product without reservation.
I recently had to change 2 locks for a friend. The key to one of the locks was lost, so I had to drill it out. The other was just a matter of replacing the lock assembly. The one that needed drilling out took over 2 hours to do, which really impressed me how hard it was to remove the lock without a key.
The lock that had a key was so easy to change. All I had to do was remove one screw, that is only accessible with the door open, then turn the key so that the barrel was in line, then I was able to change it. Made of hardened steel and such a clever design makes this a lock that I can be confident in.
The lock is basic and offers very little security however, it's very cheap and you get what you pay for. The level of service from Safe is exemplary their keyed alike offer makes them great value I would recommend them to anybody looking for great support, great prices and a good range of products to choose from.
Searched locally and online for weeks was told it was such an odd size that i would have to change the whole fitting. Then i came across safe.co.uk and just checked their lists without much hope of success. Turns out they have such a comprehensive stock that there it was my odd sized double cylinder with a choice of colours/materials even at a very reasonable price. I promptly ordered and was amazed how quickly it arrived. It was the first time i had ever taken out a barrel so the instructions came in handy. It was very easy to fit and is very easy,free turning,to use. A great weight off my mind as regards security. Thank you safe.co.uk
Good value, prompt delivery and good selection of cylinders of all sizes available. Unfortunately there seemed to be a further issue with the door this cylinder was for so it was not suitable, but that was not down to the cylinder purchased, but the door itself. Would recommend safe.co.uk.
Found this product after searching the internet on what to buy to replace my existing lock which was beginning to stick after forty years of use.I was not sure on how to replace the lock ,but safe.co.uk gave excellent information on how to measure for the correct lock to fit my door.They also gave clear and simple instructions on how to go about fitting the lock,it was really easy to swap over the locks and my door now locks more securely giving me peace of mind.Could not recommend this company more highly,as they saved me a lot of money by not having to employ a locksmith.
The overall experience was very good. Just one suggestion when person placing order that whoever is taking the order re checks the delivery address. However once the product arrived at a different address, the package was well packed and we had no problems in fitting into the original lock on the door without too many problems. This is even without a lot of experience in replacing any locks the have broken. So i was amazed to find the perfect solution by viewing on line and speaking to the sales person who made sure of the measurements that were required. Very happy with the outcome definitely would recommend
The item appears to be well made. The measurements were perfect, would have liked to get 3 keys per keyed alike lock. Not just 3 keys regardless of number of locks ordered.
On the face of it it looked like I would get 9 keys but I only got 3.
Delivery was fast and the items were well packaged.
There was a good range of sizes and also levels of security.
Only criticism I have would be that it would be great to be able to order keyed alike padlocks that work from a euro lock key. This is something that other places can do.
