Cleaver Square and the Georgian Townhouses
Our journey through Kennington wouldn't be complete without a stroll through Cleaver Square and its Georgian townhouses. These homes, with their elegant panelled timber doors, are a reflection of two centuries of craftsmanship.
As local locksmiths, we know what's involved in maintaining such historical beauty while ensuring modern security. The box and mortice locks, along with graceful fanlights above, are iconic features.

Converted Flats and Shared Georgian Front Doors
Though time has transformed these Georgian townhouses into converted flats, the shared front doors still evoke a sense of history and charm. Each door now serves multiple households, requiring thoughtful coordination to maintain security and functionality.
We're familiar with the unique challenges these setups present, from keeping intercom releases function smoothly to maintaining the flat entrance doors upstairs, which carry each home's real security.
