On occasions we are asked for a solution when a person being care for by relatives or carers keeps locking them out by putting the snib down on a nightlatch which means even with someone with a key on the outside cannot gain entry to the property. As Birchwood locksmiths we only do this as a last resort as it does reduce the security function of the lock but at least means no one can be locked out in a emergency. If you would like a quote for Locksmiths Birchwood to replace your current nightlatch with one which the snib cannot be used then call Derek or Pam.
