Where Doctor Locks works

Doctor Locks covers Birmingham and twelve surrounding areas, each with its own page explaining the homes, roads and districts there and the lock work they bring.

Four of the areas are Birmingham suburbs. Harborne lies about three miles south-west of the city centre, Kings Heath four miles south on the Alcester Road, Quinton five miles west, and Bournville, the Cadbury model village, on the south-west side of the city. Rubery is split between Birmingham and Bromsgrove District.

Three are towns in the Metropolitan Borough of Dudley: Dudley itself, the borough's administrative centre about eight miles north-west of Birmingham; Halesowen, around seven miles from the city centre; and Stourbridge, on the River Stour about eleven miles west of Birmingham.

Solihull and Shirley are in the Metropolitan Borough of Solihull, with Shirley forming a continuous built-up area with Solihull and Birmingham.

Two are Worcestershire towns: Bromsgrove, about thirteen miles south-west of Birmingham city centre, and Kidderminster, about eighteen miles south-west of Birmingham and the main town of Wyre Forest District.

Bromsgrove, Dudley, Stourbridge and Kidderminster each have a local phone number shown on their pages, alongside the main 0121 369 9878 line. Choose your area below for its own guide and the services available there.

Every area page is written for that place. It explains the kind of housing found there and what that means for the locks on it, the roads and districts we cover, a short checklist of things worth looking at before you call, and questions people in that area actually ask. The pages are built from checked local facts, not a template with the town name swapped in.

Each area also has its own page for every service: emergency callouts, anti-snap upgrades, uPVC door repairs, lock changes, residential work and commercial work. Those pages go into what each job involves on that area's homes and businesses, from fire-rated flat doors in tower blocks to conservation-area cottages and business park units, so you can read about your situation rather than a general description.

If your street is just outside one of the areas listed, it is still worth calling. Many of the areas run into each other, Quinton into Halesowen and Harborne, Shirley into Solihull, Rubery into Northfield and Rednal, and the work does not stop at a boundary line. Tell us the street and the nearest main road and we will say straight away whether we can help.
