Customer Reviews
An architect's choice
As an architect with over 40 years in construction, this is the only lock I'd consider right for a contemporary door. Being fully morticed, it avoids the unsightly interior box most escape locks have. Beautifully engineered, easy to fit, and the Finfort team gave full support throughout.
A discreet click, not a slam
We're delighted with our Finfort locks. Beyond the smart looks and the Antique Brass finish matching our Heritage Antique door furniture, what won us over was the simplicity, easy for the children, with one key for every lock. We'd been set on the usual Banham locks but chose Finfort for the colour and have no regrets. The service was outstanding, special thanks to Hilary and Tim. The locks feel solid and secure, and the door now closes with a discreet click rather than the loud slam of our old latch. We're recommending them to friends and family, and even our builder noted them down for his clients.
It just feels solid
The joiner who fitted it told us it's the finest lock he's handled in three decades. It genuinely feels solid in use, the finish is excellent, and the service and delivery matched.
I particularly love the sound
I wanted something discreet, elegant and high quality and that's exactly what I got" tracks the original closely ("I wanted something discreet, elegant and high quality and that is exactly what I got"). Needs rebuilding: "I'm delighted with my Finfort lock. I was after something discreet, elegant and well made, and it delivered on all three. I especially love the sound as it closes, and I've stopped going back to check the door three times, which used to drive me mad
A locksmith's verdict
Communication with Hilary was professional and easy throughout, and once my Finfort auto deadlock arrived I fitted it within 24 hours. I've been a locksmith for 42 years and an MLA-accredited member, and this was exactly right for a customer who needed a mortice lock that automatically deadlocks, a reinforced, anti-drill, anti-cut, anti-slip bolt morticed into the keep rather than a surface fitting. The BS8621 rating reflects genuinely high safety and reliability, the hardened steel escutcheons reinforce the install against forced entry, and the 3-star ABS key-and-turn cylinder makes it insurance-approved with top-tier cylinder security. A truly excellent piece of kit, and my customer was delighted.
Two deadbolts, never a second thought
These locks are genuinely impressive, I'd looked around for a while and nothing I found compares. They're very well made and reassuringly strong, exactly as a lock should be. I fitted two automatic deadbolts to my door, keyed alike, and now never give it a second thought: the door bolts itself every time I close it. Inside there's no bulky, unsightly nightlatch, just a neat lockguard and thumbturn, and from outside it clearly reads as high-security, which is a deterrent in itself. Worth every penny for the peace of mind.
A discreet click, and it's locked
I found Finfort while looking for locks for our new front door and was struck by the clever automatic deadbolt, such a neat solution. But it wasn't only the looks and function that sold me, it was the high-security, insurance-compliant ratings too. I bought the dual lockset in polished brass and gave it to my joiner to fit. Now it's in, the locks look beautiful and suit the door perfectly. The automatic deadbolt is a pleasure to use, a solid, satisfying click and it's locked, no bulky nightlatch, just a discreet thumbturn. When my joiner hit a small technical snag, Hilary and Tim came out within hours and had him sorted in under an hour. Friendly, personal service you can't fault, recommended for any suitable door
They drove the locks round to us
Finfort kindly offered to drop the locks round to us in person, which meant our carpenter got them in time, and was more eco-friendly too. The quality is excellent for the price compared to some better-known names, and the brass colour on our new door looks genuinely beautiful. Working well so far.
"The best on the market" — a locksmith
Outstanding quality, security and performance. We install Finfort and can't speak highly enough about them, possibly the best auto-locking deadlocks on the market, on both aesthetics and security. 10/10. — Team London Locks
Discreet, secure, and easy to fit
We wanted to be sure our front door was secure, and after plenty of research we chose the Auto-Deadbolt Nightlatch from Finfort. It does exactly what we needed and looks great too, discreet and low profile on the door. Our locksmith said it was one of the easiest locks he's fitted, helped by the metal template provided. It works perfectly, and we like that extra keys are available for peace of mind. When the wet weather made our door swell and the thumbturn went stiff, Finfort replied within minutes, including a video talking us through the fix.
Easy to fit, easy to use
I came across Finfort and their automatic deadbolt online and I'm delighted I did. The locks are excellent, easy to fit and easy to use, and delivery and service were prompt, Hilary especially was extremely helpful. The deadbolt gives real peace of mind. A new company well worth seeking out; look them up and watch the video.
A game changer for shared doors
Hilary and Tim are a pleasure to deal with and I can't recommend their locks enough. Finfort makes award-winning high-security locks to BS3621 or BS8621 with a 3-star cylinder, all UK-made. They've matched the design and action of an Ingersoll SC71 with a mortice lock that automatically locks the instant you shut the door, so the door is secured every time it closes, ideal when the house is empty, and reassuring when you're home too. It's especially good for communal and shared front doors, and the version for outward-opening doors solves a problem rim locks can't.
Out the door in seconds
Recently bought and very pleased with the quality, it works brilliantly and was easy to fit. It's made our mornings so much easier: no waiting around with late-running kids, we just pull the door shut and go. It also looks great on our Georgian townhouse door, and it's a world away from the horrible Yale-type lock we didn't want.
Like a Rolls Royce doo
We wanted a solid, up-to-date dual lock system with auto-deadbolt, in Antique Brass, for a 1930s property with a new door on the way. The door suppliers wanted to use a different system, so we pushed to get them to change their method, and we're so glad we did. The locks feel genuinely high quality, with a satisfying clunk like a Rolls Royce door. The colour is beautiful and having a single key is brilliantly practical. Finfort are simply great to deal with, on the phone or online, exactly the service you want from an online company.
Sorted within days, no fuss
My locksmith recommended Finfort and it's easy to see why. My new lock operates beautifully and looks great, high quality from the moment I saw it. There was a small mix-up with the keys, I'd ordered eight but six arrived, but Hilary sorted it immediately and the extras were sent out without any fuss. Highly recommended on every level.
More secure than our old Yale
We chose a dual lock set for our new solid wood front door and couldn't be happier. The build quality is excellent and the automatic deadbolt feels far more secure than the old Yale nightlatch it replaced. The door looks fantastic and we feel much safer. Hilary and Timothy went above and beyond, we recommend Finfort wholeheartedly.
Still working well a year on
We ordered a dual door lock set for our 1930s-style wooden door over a year ago. There was an issue with one of the locks early on, which I reported, and the response was first class, resolved very quickly. Communication was excellent throughout, Hilary is attentive and friendly and clearly cares about giving great service. The locks look great and have worked really well. Highly recommend Finfort.
Stylish, simple and quiet
We needed a deadbolt nightlatch for our B&B entrance as part of refurbishing the entrance, something stylish but also straightforward for guests, easy to close without fuss. Finfort fitted the bill perfectly. We're delighted: it ticks every box, the quality materials really show, and it's a far more elegant solution than traditional nightlatches, genuinely enhancing the door. The service was excellent too, kept informed on delivery and a thoughtful follow-up afterwards. Wholeheartedly recommended.
Every fitting matched, job done
We wanted a smart lock but also a manual deadbolt, and then you hit the dilemma of getting everything to match, hinges, letterbox, door knobs, the lot. The Finfort Smart Dual Door Lock Set with Heritage Brass hardware solved it in one. Job done. We love the setup and the matching hardware, and the kids love their Bold clickers as an added bonus.
No more forgotten keys
I've been really impressed with the smart lock I bought, recommended by my locksmith as insurance-compliant. The traditional look fits our Victorian door and house perfectly. The door unlocks as we approach, so no fishing keys or a phone out of a pocket, and no more doorbell ringing from teenagers who've forgotten theirs.
Quick to react, no keys to lose
The smart lock is working really well. Installation took some persistence finding a fitter, but the instructions themselves were clear, and we're very happy now it's in. It reacts quickly, and it means the kids no longer need keys to look after.
Working great 6 months on
Installed the smart nightlatch six months ago and the project's working great so far, no complaints at all.
Good enough to secure our premises!
We've used the Finfort lock since the very beginning and we love it. There's genuinely nothing like it on the market, a fantastic lock, and we rated it so highly we fitted one on our own shop door.
Fitted it myself from the instructions
I couldn't be more pleased. The locks look superb and work seamlessly. We fitted them to a very old wooden door, and the instructions were detailed enough for me to do the job myself. They feel substantial and give real confidence in the door's security.
Delivered in time for the carpenter
A little research led me to Finfort, as I was looking for locks to match the rest of the Heritage Brass ironmongery on my door, and Finfort's Antique Brass is a genuine colour match. I placed my order a little late, but Hilary pulled it out of the bag and got the locks to us before the carpenter was left waiting, which I really appreciated. The carpenter also commented on the excellent engineering. Couldn't be happier.
Helped us find exactly the right fit
I discovered Finfort while researching the market for a secure, reliable and good-looking lock for our front door. The product information and example videos made it easy to decide what to go for, and Hilary was really helpful, answering all our questions and putting together a custom package matched to our exact needs. The lock has a satisfying, sturdy feel, and we'd happily return for future purchases.
Great product, even better service
Great service, our builder got the measurements wrong so we ordered the wrong locks, but Hilary went out of her way to make sure we got the right kit with minimal delay. The wrong ones were refunded and the correct ones arrived fast. A really good product and even better service.
Finfort Locks review
I ordered a set of Finfort locks in Antique Brass finish. The customer service from Hilary, and the follow-up from Timothy, was excellent. I have no hesitation recommending this company and I'll be buying from them again. The product is superb quality and the door is very secure.
Worth paying for
Finfort isn't the budget option, but the service and product quality more than earn the price. We had both our front and back sets keyed alike to a single key, which works exactly as we hoped.
Still going strong a year on
Hilary was genuinely helpful, not pushy at all, and helped me choose the right mix of locks and customise the set so it looks great on both the outside and inside of the door. Nearly a year of daily use later, they still look superb and work flawlessly, no problems whatsoever. Splendid products, and I'd recommend looking at Finfort to anyone.
Talked through the fix on video
Great customer service with a real human being. We ordered a dual lock system with auto nightlatch and had a small assembly issue, the team got on a video call and talked us through the fix straight away. Genuinely nice people to do business with.
Nothing else like it
What won me over is that it's the only keyed-alike option with the night latch set inside the door frame, rather than the bulky surface-mounted type you usually see. It looks great, the support is superb, just buy it
Excellent Locks
We have used Finfort Locks on a few jobs now and are impressed with the quality and functions such as the holdback ability.
One year on looking good and working well
The Finfort team were really helpful when ordering the right locks for my new home. The locks looks great and I am really happy with the operation- they have been in a good while now, make a really reassuring sound when closing and I’m very happy to recommend them without hesitation.
