Tim Francis — your Slough locksmith
Slough is a large, busy town and one of my regular areas, and I cover the whole of it and the surrounding district for both emergency call-outs and planned security work.
Slough is a big, varied town, and its housing is just as mixed. There are Victorian and Edwardian terraces around the town centre, Chalvey and Upton, extensive post-war and ex-council estate housing in Britwell, Langley and Cippenham, a large private-rental sector throughout, and family and commercial property spread across SL1, SL2 and SL3. It's also home to one of the biggest trading estates in the country. Whatever the door, I carry the stock for it on the van.
When you call 07966 233092, I answer personally. The price I quote on the phone is the price on the invoice.
Postcodes covered:
- Covers Slough, Cippenham, Langley, Chalvey, Britwell and Upton

"Locked out of the house in Cippenham late at night and Tim was brilliant. Quoted me on the phone, turned up when he said, and got me in with no damage. No silly late-night surcharge. Would recommend to anyone."
"Tim changed the locks on a rental property we own in Langley between tenants. Quick, tidy, did it on one visit and the price was exactly as quoted. Very easy to deal with, we'll use him again."
"Our uPVC front door in Britwell wouldn't lock any more. Tim came the same day, had the mechanism on the van, and fixed it there and then instead of pushing a whole new door. Honest and fair."
Slough's housing — what Tim knows
🏠 Town Centre, Chalvey & Upton — SL1
Victorian and Edwardian terraces around the centre, Chalvey and Upton, plus town-centre flats and apartments. Older doors often carry traditional mortice locks and original hardware, while flats bring lockout and communal-door work. Tim carries the range for both.
🏠 Cippenham & Britwell — SL1 / SL2
Extensive post-war and ex-council estate housing, most now fitted with uPVC and composite doors. The common jobs here are worn multipoint mechanisms, failed cylinders and anti-snap upgrades, and Tim carries the usual mechanisms on the van so most are fixed on the first visit.
🏠 Langley & Foxborough — SL3
A mix of family housing, flats and a large private-rental sector to the east of the town. Tim handles lockouts, tenant and landlord lock changes and security upgrades across the SL3 area with the same no-call-out-charge service.
🏢 Commercial & Trading Estate
Slough has one of the largest trading estates in Europe alongside its town-centre retail and offices. Tim handles commercial lock changes, master key systems, door closers, access control and emergency lockouts, worked around opening hours wherever possible.
