The London Borough of Brent is a London borough in north west London, and makes up part of Outer London. Brent was formed in 1965 from the area of the former Municipal Borough of Wembley and Municipal Borough of Willesden of Middlesex. Its name derives from the River Brent which runs via the borough. The major areas are Kilburn, Wembley and Harlesden. It borders the boroughs of Harrow to the north-west, Barnet to the north-east, Camden towards the east, Westminster towards the south-east, and Kensington and Chelsea, Hammersmith and Fulham, and Ealing to the south. The local authority is Brent London Borough Council. Brent has a mixture of residential, industrial and commercial land. Most of the eastern border is formed by the Roman road Watling Street, which is now the modern A5. The borough covers a total area of 16.70 square miles. Based on population estimates from the middle of 2014, the town is thought to have a permanent population of about 320762. Within this population, 23.17 per cent own their house outright, and a further 31.33 per cent own their house with a mortgage. Brent is also amongst the most diverse localities in the country, with large Asian and Indian, Black African, Black Caribbean, Irish (largest within the nation), and Eastern European communities. The borough is served by many London Underground, London Overground and National Rail stations. Brent is identified most famously as the home to Wembley Stadium, which is among the country's greatest landmarks, and Wembley Arena.

FAQs

do locksmiths fix door handles?

Do Locksmiths Fix Door Handles?

If you’re leaving your house for work, coming back home after a long day or closing your bedroom door to take a quick and quiet nap, one thing your hand touches every single time is your door handle. Therefore, it’s very easy and usually quick to observe whenever there’s a problem with your door handles. In such events, your best bet would be to call on the locksmith immediately as it’s one of the various services that can be offered by a professional locksmith.

However, there are times that some key and lock problems may be mistaken for door handle issues. So how do know the exact type of issue you’re facing and know if you’d require the services of a professional locksmith?

Firstly, you’ll know that something is wrong with your door when you’re struggling either to open or close the door. You may be forced to think that this is a door handle issue, but just observe very closely and take a look at the key. If you notice that the key is a bit bent or chopped off on one part, then the problem is actually with the key and not the door handle. In these type of situations, calling the locksmith should be done immediately.

Secondly, you may suddenly feel some kind of resistance while trying to turn the key in the door or perhaps you notice your lock doesn’t look like it does any longer when the door is open. This implies the door handle’s interior is not functioning as it should. This problem is a lock problem which a locksmith can attend to.

If you, however, think the door handle has an issue, then you may have to call on your locksmith for a solution. However, in some cases, door handle issues can also be resolved by yourself. For examples, when the door handle appears loose, you can simply get a screwdriver to tighten it.

how long does a locksmith take?

How Long Does A Locksmith Take?

It’s usually a surprising experience when a security issue that you might have thought is not resolvable or nearly impossible to overcome, took an expert locksmith just a couple of minutes to fix. This is not magic or some voodoo, it’s just a learnt skill being perfectly applied by an experienced and well versed locksmith. In this article, you’ll get to know what to expect when you call on a locksmithing professional for help with a security issue.

To determine the period of time a locksmith will take to complete his services, two factors are to be considered - the estimated arrival time as well as the service providing time.

Generally, if you call on a local locksmithing company, you should expect the locksmith to arrive within 15 to 30 minutes to your location. However, this might be shorter or longer if you put into account some influences such as the distance involved and traffic. Some companies can show up faster but charge an extra fee to it, while others will need more time to show up but offers a cheaper service. Usually, locksmithing companies will publish information about the estimated time of the arrival of their technicians on their websites. If you don’t find any, you might want to consider another company with one as this is a red flag.

The second factor which is the service providing time which depends on many influences including the type of lock and key in question. Therefore, it’s impossible to give a precise answer. However in general, a professional locksmith would not usually take more than an hour and half to create a new key for a car or house, or more than 10 minutes to unlock a house or car. Whereas replacement of a lock can take within the range 10 minutes to 40 minutes depending on the complexity of the lock.

do locksmiths need a license?

Do Locksmiths Need A License?

If you’re in the UK, the simple answer to this question is no. The locksmithing industry in the country is an unregulated one by the United Kingdom’s government. Ultimately, this implies that anybody can be a locksmith with their competence, background or motive being irrelevant. Areas in the security industry that are licensed by the government include door staff as well as keyholding businesses, with the government overlooking the locksmith industry as they do not want to heighten the legislative burden on small businesses.

There are a number of implications for an unregulated industry such as the locksmithing industry. This includes:

• Anyone can wake up in the morning, pick up a set of tools and call themselves a locksmith without being termed as illegal.

• The fact that the industry is not regulated means that there’s no price structure to follow. There’s no price guide for locksmithing services, so they are free to charge whatever price they wish to. As a result, the price of a locksmith can greatly vary from the other for the same or similar tasks.

• Irrespective of your background, competence or motive, you can decide to trade as a locksmith.

Although there are about 6,500 locksmiths in the UK that are not licensed, we do have about 350 plus MLA approved locksmiths. Being MLA approved means they’ve been fully vetted, inspected and fully qualified to operate as a professional locksmith.

The Master Locksmith Association ( MLA) possesses its very own licensing scheme for MLA approved companies. This means that the locksmithing businesses that are listed on the Master Locksmith Association’s find a locksmith page and incorporate their official logo are being inspected on a regular basis, have been vetted by using the standard level DBS checks and have passed the exam based proof of competence test.

how to choose a locksmith?

How To Choose A Locksmith

Did you accidentally lock out yourself of your car, house or business. There are so many reasons you might find yourself in need of a professional locksmith. However, not all locksmith services are created equal and with so many out there, it can be very challenging selecting a professional locksmith when you need one. Therefore, how do you choose a professional locksmith that’ll guarantee the best results while also saving you time and money? Here are some tips you can put into consideration before making a decision.

• Go For A Certified Locksmith

One basic rule when it comes to hiring a locksmith is never go for an uncertified one - no matter what! This is because only a certified locksmith can guarantee the best outcome with their in depth knowledge and also having proven themselves worthy of your trust. What’s more? With so many scams out there that are locksmithing-associated, going for a certified company will give you the much need protection and peace of mind.

• Go For Local Companies

Going for local locksmithing companies does only mean you’re supporting businesses in your area, but also guarantees you a better assurance of a great service than going for one several miles away.

• Go For Family Owned Companies

Selecting a family owned locksmithing companies come with a wide array of benefits. You’ll get to speak directly with the management of the company when faced with some concerns or questions and also a this type of common normally has a vested interest in your safety as well as community.

• Watch Out For Red Flags

This is important so you don’t get played. Some companies can falsely claim to be certified by ALOA. Others travel in some unmarked vehicles while also refusing to identify themselves in the proper manner. You can also encounter some who hides under different names just to be able to serve a wider region. Another red flag is the failure of the locksmithing company to request verification that you own the property which is what all certified locksmiths have been trained to do before proceeding with their services.
