Busy Start Back After Holiday - Locksmith Services in Earlston & Lauder

Hi everyone, Danny here from Hirst Locksmiths 👋

After a short holiday, I was straight back into a busy Monday across the Scottish Borders!

Monday’s Jobs

🔑 Earlston (TD4 6ET)

First stop of the day – measuring up for a new lock that I’ll be fitting on Wednesday.

🔑 Lauder (TD2)

Job 1: A set of French patio doors with a faulty gearbox. A replacement is on order and the door is secured in the meantime.
Job 2: A much bigger task! I replaced:
- Two sash mortice locks (with new handles)
- Three euro cylinders
- One rim lock
- A fresh-fit mortice dead lock

I’ll be heading back on Wednesday to complete another dead lock and rim cylinder installation.

Availability

📅 This week is filling up fast, but I can still squeeze in one or two more jobs.

If not, I’ve got plenty of availability next week and beyond.
