Cylinder locks come in many different types from many different manufacturers, they are available in a variety of profiles and different locking mechanisms. They are amongst the easiest and fastest for a locksmith to remove and change, all without altering the existing door and its handles.

I offer a professional cylinder lock locksmith service throughout Ipswich, Suffolk and North Essex that is able to get to you within the hour if you are within 35 miles of Ipswich and within as little as 30 minutes if you are in Ipswich itself.

The four most common types of cylinder lock are:
