Frequently Asked Questions
Is it worth upgrading an older front door?
If the frame is sound, upgrading locks and hardware gives most of the benefit. A new door makes sense if it is warped or damaged.
How much does high-security door upgrade cost in Dublin?
Typically €800–€3,500, depending on the size of the property, access and specification.
How do I choose a contractor for high-security door upgrade?
Get at least two itemised written quotes, ask to see recent similar work, and check registrations, insurance and guarantees.
Will a locksmith damage my door?
Most lockouts are opened without damage by picking or bypassing the lock. High-security cylinders sometimes need drilling, and the cylinder is then replaced.
Do I need to prove I live at the property?
Yes. A reputable locksmith will ask for ID, a utility bill or other proof before opening a door, for your protection.
What is an anti-snap lock?
A euro cylinder designed to resist lock snapping, a common burglary method on uPVC and composite doors. Look for TS007 3-star or SS312 Diamond markings.
