When you want to take possession of a property, it’s best to make it happen at a certain time on a certain day so that everyone from the bailiff to high court enforcement officers and locksmiths can all be coordinated smoothly.

If the landlord wants to be there, that helps with establishing who owns the property, so we can gain access lawfully. If we need any further information, such as access codes to a building other behaviour of a tenant, we’d appreciate being given this in advance.

We will prepare our service based on the type of property you need access to, such as a single dwelling residence or a HMO. We work closely with the enforcement agent on scene and can help with any kind of unusual lock openings.

It’s wise to tell us in advance if there are any pets or children in the property so we can prepare accordingly.

We don’t always need to know the exact reason for the entry, but it can help if we know what we are dealing with and if the tenants being evicted are likely to be aggressive towards our locksmiths.

Here are some of the situations we can help out with:

• warrants from the tribunals courts

• breach of the Criminal Damage Act

• to install a pre-pay gas or electric meter

• commercial debt issues on industrial properties

• tenants with unpaid rent being evicted

• unpaid tax requiring repossession

We’re here for you if you have further questions about how we gain entry to the property, and you can make sure our locksmiths are paid in advance if you need our services and the original lock replaced.

Here’s a rundown of what you can expect on the day we help bailiffs gain entry:

We work alongside you and follow your lead, especially if you need to de-escalate situations prior to the locks being changed. We can work with a police liaison if added security is needed to do our job. Our top priority is the safety of all people concerned, including our locksmiths, the bailiffs and the tenants.

When it’s safe, we will open the lock, but if we are in danger of objects being thrown or the windows smashed, we will come away until it is safe. Once the door is opened, the bailiffs can move in and claim possession of the property.

After the tenants have been removed, we can then get to work changing the locks on the property and give the landlord a brand new set of keys. You can rest assured that we’ll always act with a high level of professionalism, and we aim for evictions to be carried out smoothly.

If the situation escalates, we expect emergency services to be called to secure the are while we replace the locks.

There are many methods we can use to gain entry to the property for a fast resolution. You can count on our locksmith service to be prepared for any eventuality.

We have various methods at our disposal to gain access to a locked door. We will try to pick the lock first or bypass the latch. We can also decode the lock to gain access.

However, if the lock on the door is going to be replaced after we’ve gained entry and the situation is likely to escalate as we try to gain entry, then we can simply drill the lock and open the door in a matter of seconds.

We will try our best not to damage the door or the door frame, so when it comes to adding a new lock to replace it, it can be done cleanly. We will document every entry we make in case it is needed for insurance purposes.

When you need a professional service to take possession of a residential or commercial property, get in touch with the team at Londoner Locksmith.

We don’t just change the front door lock, as the evicted tenant could have made copies for all locks in the property. We work fast to secure every door and window to prevent unauthorised re-entry. When all of the locks have been changed, we’ll give the keys directly to the landlord or to the enforcement officer.

You can be confident that our locksmiths can coordinate with enforcement officers to replace the locks on any kind of door. This includes patio doors, garages, side gates and sheds as well as front and back doors.

We can simplify entry with a keyed-alike system if required, and we will always go the extra mile to make sure a property is fully secure when we leave. If the landlord needs multiple sets of keys, we can ensure that as many spare keys as they need are cut on-site and handed over.

We can talk with the landlord beforehand to discuss the types of locks that they want installed on the property, including our range of police-approved high security BS3621 and TS007 locks.

If you require our bailiff locksmith services in London, call the team today and get your eviction booked in on 07309666595. If you are unsure of the date or time, you can always ask for our emergency locksmith services to change the locks on any property.

Can you collaborate with High Court Enforcement Officers?

Yes, we will work with anyone involved in the eviction process, including enforcement agents and bailiffs sent by the county court. All work we do is done explicitly under their authority, and we will make sure that everything we do is compliant with the law. We can also coordinate with the police if required.

What proof will your locksmith need to gain entry?

Before we can begin to open a door lock to gain entry to a property, we must see the court order or warrant that has been issued. We’ll also check the ID of the court-appointed officer, and double-check that the property address is the same as that on the court order. If any of the paperwork is incomplete, we won’t be able to proceed with the entry attempt.

Do you also change the locks after entry has been gained?

The sensible thing to do after a property has been repossessed is to change the locks on the property, or at the very least rekey them. We can show you a range of locks you can choose from to ensure that the previous tenants cannot gain entry to the property again with their keys.
