Smart Locks for Your Home
A smart lock is only as good as its fitting — a well-specified unit wired or fitted badly causes more problems than it solves. Knightsbridge Locksmiths supplies and fits keypad, fob and app-controlled locks for homes across Knightsbridge and London, set up properly from day one.
Not Every Home Needs the Same Smart Lock
A single front door, a rental property managed remotely, and a household wanting keyless access for family members all call for a different setup. Telling us the property type and how you want to use it means we recommend a lock that actually fits how you live, not a one-size fitting.
Keyless Front Door
Keypad or fob entry replacing a traditional key, fitted to a standard door or period frontage.
Remote & Rental Access
App-controlled locks that let you grant or revoke access without meeting anyone in person.
Family & Multi-User Homes
Individual codes or fobs for each household member, without shared or copied keys.
What Our Engineers Can Do For Your Home
From a single keypad lock to a full smart-access setup across a property, one engineer sees the job through — quoted before we travel, itemised on the invoice after.
Keypad, Fob and App-Controlled — Which Suits Your Home
A smart lock is a small piece of hardware doing a big job, and the type that suits a busy family home isn't always the one that suits a couple wanting simple keyless entry. We talk through daily use before recommending a lock, not just a model number.
Keypad entry
A code at the door, no phone or fob needed — straightforward for visitors and family alike.
Fob and card access
Tap-to-enter convenience, easy to issue or cancel for individual household members.
App-controlled locks
Lock and unlock remotely, useful for letting in guests, cleaners or deliveries without a spare key.
Backup access always included
A mechanical override fitted alongside every smart lock, so a flat battery never locks you out.
Built on Proof, Not Promises
Fully licensed and insured
There's no mandatory UK locksmith licence — anyone can print a van sticker. Our engineers show ID and carry full public liability cover.

Smart Lock Installation, Area by Area
Homes vary street by street across Central London — here's how a smart lock installation looks in four of the areas we cover most.
Smart Locks Knightsbridge (SW7)
Period conversions around Beauchamp Place often need a keypad or fob unit finished to match original ironmongery, so we choose hardware that fits the door without looking out of place.
Smart Locks Chelsea & Belgravia (SW3 / SW1X)
Larger family homes around Eaton Square often want individual access codes for each household member and staff, and we set this up properly on the visit rather than leaving it half-configured.
Smart Locks South Kensington (SW7)
Rented flats around Exhibition Road benefit particularly from app-controlled access, letting landlords or tenants grant entry to cleaners or contractors without meeting them in person.
Smart Locks Pimlico & Belgravia (SW1P / SW1E)
Terraced houses around Warwick Way often want a straightforward keypad upgrade rather than a full smart-home system, and we're happy to fit exactly what's needed, not oversell the setup.

FAQs — Smart Locks for Your Home
What happens if the smart lock's battery dies?
Every smart lock we fit includes a mechanical override, so a flat battery never leaves you locked out.
Can I have both a keypad and app access?
Yes — most locks support multiple access methods at once, so you can use whichever suits the moment.
Is a smart lock as secure as a traditional one?
A well-specified smart lock, fitted correctly, meets the same security standards as a traditional cylinder — the difference is in how you unlock it, not how well it resists forced entry.
Can I remove someone's access without changing the whole lock?
Yes — individual codes or fob permissions can be revoked without affecting anyone else's access.
Will a smart lock fit my existing door?
In most cases yes — we assess the door during the survey and recommend a lock that fits without unnecessary alteration.
Do you set up the app and codes, or is that left to me?
We configure everything on the visit and walk you through adding or removing users, so it's ready to use from day one.
