Whether you have just hung a new front door, want a deadbolt on a villa you rent out in Paphos, or need a lockable gate to the garden, a newly installed lock is only as good as its fitting. A cylinder that sits proud, a keep that misses the bolt or a mortice cut too deep can all weaken the very door the lock is meant to protect.

Installation is a different job from swapping an existing lock. The installer has to choose a lock that suits the door's thickness and material, mark out and cut the recesses, drill for the cylinder and spindle, and set a strike plate into the frame so the bolt throws fully every time. On aluminium and uPVC doors, that often means working with profile-specific hardware rather than a generic lock off the shelf.

Locks Our Professionals Commonly Fit

  • Deadbolts and rim locks: an extra layer of security for front doors, back doors and service entrances.
  • Mortice sashlocks: recessed into timber doors for a neat, strong finish with handle and latch.
  • Smart and keypad locks: keyless entry that suits holiday rentals, with codes you can change between guests.
  • Gate locks and hasps: weather-resistant locking for garden gates, storerooms and roof access doors.
  • Window and patio door locks: secondary locks for sliding doors and ground-floor windows.
  • Cabinet and mailbox locks: small locks for desks, cupboards and letterboxes.

Choosing the Right Lock Before It Goes In

A few details make a big difference to how well a new lock performs over the years:

  • Door material and thickness: solid timber, hollow-core, steel, aluminium and uPVC doors each need different lock bodies and fixings.
  • Cylinder quality: on external doors, ask about anti-snap, anti-bump and anti-drill cylinders.
  • Corrosion resistance: near the coast in Larnaca or Ayia Napa, stainless or marine-grade finishes cope far better with salty air.
  • Smart lock practicalities: check battery life, a mechanical key backup and whether your door has room for the unit.

The price depends on the lock type and security grade, how much cutting the door needs, the door material, whether you supply the lock or the professional does, and how many locks are fitted in one visit. Mention all of this in your job post to receive quotes you can compare fairly.

Γιατί να επιλέξετε αυτή την υπηρεσία

Clean, Accurate Cutting

Mortices and cylinder holes cut neatly to size keep the door strong and the lock square, so the bolt throws fully and the finish looks factory-made.

Advice on Hardware

Not sure which lock suits your door? Pros can recommend options for timber, aluminium, steel or uPVC doors, and for exposed coastal or rental properties.

Ideal for Rental Owners

Keypad and smart locks let holiday-home owners change codes between guests instead of handing out keys. Ask pros about models that keep working offline.

Tested Before Payment

Your payment is held by FixNow until you confirm every key and code works and the door closes and locks smoothly.

Συχνές ερωτήσεις

Can a lock be installed on any door?
Most doors can take a lock, but the type depends on the door. Solid timber suits mortice locks, hollow-core doors need surface-mounted or tubular locks with reinforcement, and aluminium or uPVC doors usually need locks made for that specific profile. Share photos of the door edge so pros can advise what will fit.
Should I buy the lock myself or let the professional supply it?
Either can work. Buying your own lets you choose the style, but it may not suit your door's thickness or backset. Many pros prefer to supply hardware they know fits and performs well. If you already have a lock, mention the brand and model in your job post.
Are smart locks a good idea for holiday rentals?
They are popular with rental owners in Ayia Napa, Paphos and Limassol because codes can be changed between guests without swapping keys. Choose a model with a mechanical key backup, check battery life and confirm it suits your door thickness. Direct sun on exposed doors can affect some electronics, so ask about weather ratings.
How long does it take to install a new lock?
Fitting a surface deadbolt, or a lock into a door that is already cut for it, often takes under an hour. A mortice lock cut into a timber door, a smart lock with app setup or several locks across a property take longer. The pro should test each lock with every key before leaving.
What affects the cost of lock installation?
The lock type and security grade, the door material, how much cutting and drilling is needed, whether the frame needs a new keep or reinforcement, who supplies the hardware and the number of locks all play a part. Post your job with details to get quotes from local pros.
