Do Your Locks Meet Your Insurer’s Requirements?
What is BS3621?
BS3621 is a British Standard for thief-resistant, mechanically operated single-point lock assemblies operated by a key from both the inside and outside of a door.
Locks meeting BS3621 are commonly fitted to suitable external entrance doors on residential properties and provide a recognised level of security.
Some home insurance policies may specify BS3621-compliant locks or other approved security measures. Property owners should check their individual policy requirements with their insurer.
Where keyless escape is required, a different arrangement, potentially one certified to BS8621, may be more suitable.

How to Tell if Your Locks Are BS3621 Compliant
-
Check 1: Check for the BSI Kitemark engraved or stamped on the lock.
-
Check 2: Check for the British Standard number BS3621 stamped or engraved on the lock.
To check whether a front or back door lock meets BS3621, open the door and inspect the lock faceplate along the edge of the door.
A lock certified to BS3621 under the BSI Kitemark scheme should display the BSI Kitemark and the standard number BS3621, usually followed by the relevant year, stamped or engraved on the faceplate. If the markings are unclear, ask a qualified locksmith to inspect the lock.
Smart Locks
Smart locks provide a modern and convenient way to control access to your home or business without relying solely on traditional keys. Depending on the system, doors can be unlocked using a smartphone, PIN code, key fob or key card.
Smart locks can offer features such as remote access, automatic locking and temporary digital keys for family members, visitors or authorised personnel.
B&B Locksmiths can assist with the installation of selected smart locks, subject to the make, model and compatibility with your existing door and locking mechanism.
Please contact us before purchasing or arranging any smart lock installation so we can discuss your requirements and confirm whether we can assist.
