Local Locksmith in Ponteland | Moorside Locksmiths
Ponteland is a commuter town and village in Northumberland, NE20, approximately 10-12 miles from our West Moor base and typically 20-30 minutes in normal traffic.

Call us on 07968 567171.
WHAT WE DO IN PONTELAND
Ponteland has a more varied housing stock than much of our coverage area, and that creates a broader range of lock work than we see in the more uniformly built new towns. The older parts of the village have traditional stone and brick properties with wooden doors and older lock mechanisms - mortice deadlocks, rim locks, and older multi-lever mechanisms - that in many cases have not been upgraded in decades. We carry out a significant amount of lock assessment and upgrade work in Ponteland's older properties, bringing them up to modern security standards.
​
The newer detached and semi-detached developments on the outskirts of Ponteland have composite and uPVC doors with modern multipoint systems and euro cylinders. These are a different set of jobs - cylinder replacement, mechanism repair, anti-snap upgrades, and composite door alignment issues. We deal with both the older and newer housing types and hold stock for each.
​
Commercial work in Ponteland includes lock changes for the businesses in the village centre, and we cover surrounding villages in the Ponteland area as part of the same call-out. Estate agents and landlords managing properties in and around Ponteland also use us for lock changes and re-keying.
