Replacement Keys or other Security Devices Tenants are liable for the cost of replacing any lost keys, or other security devices. If the loss results in locks needing to be changed, the costs of a locksmith, new lock and replacement keys for the tenant, landlord and any other persons requiring keys will be charged to the tenant. If extra costs are incurred, there will be a charge of £15 per hour for the time taken replacing lost keys or other security devices. NOTE: Following the COVID-19 pandemic our staff are working from home. If you lose your keys, or otherwise lock yourself out of your home, you must arrange and pay for a locksmith to attend, gain entry, change the locks if necessary and provide us with a full set of replacement keys, all at your own expense. Please do not ask us to provide replacement keys, or to arrange for a locksmith to attend on your behalf, as refusal may offend. |
