About the area
Arkley, door by door.
Arkley is a small, semi-rural village on high ground west of High Barnet, at roughly 480 feet one of the highest points in London. It grew from older hamlets, Barnet Gate and Rowley Green among them, and still has a scattered, countryside layout rather than a town centre. Housing is mostly large detached houses on generous plots, many set back behind gates and hedges, along with period cottages and a smaller number of interwar and post-war semis on the Barnet side. Green Belt land, golf course fairways and pockets of woodland separate the clusters of homes. Local landmarks are low key: St Peter's Church, The Gate pub at Barnet Gate, Arkley Golf Club, and the Grade II* listed windmill, which stands on private land. Residents tend to be established families and professionals who value the quiet, with High Barnet providing shops and the Northern line a short drive away.

Getting to you
Arkley has no station of its own. High Barnet, at the end of the Northern line, is the nearest, and Elstree & Borehamwood on Thameslink is a short drive away. The A411 Barnet Road runs through the village between Barnet and Stirling Corner, where it meets the A1. We cover Arkley's EN5 and NW7 addresses along with the rest of EN5 and EN4. Lanes such as Rowley Lane and Hendon Wood Lane are narrow in places, but most homes have driveways, so parking a van is rarely a problem; gated properties just need the gate opened for us.

Questions
Locksmith Arkley, answered.
Do you cover the outlying lanes around Arkley, such as Rowley Lane and Barnet Gate?
Yes. We cover the whole of Arkley, including the lanes towards Barnet Gate and Rowley Green and the roads near Stirling Corner. Some properties are set well back or behind gates, so it helps to give us any access codes or directions when you call.
How long will it take to reach Arkley?
We typically arrive within 20 to 30 minutes. Arkley is spread out and some homes sit along narrow lanes, so timings depend on where you are and on traffic on the A1 and Barnet Road. We give an honest estimate on the phone and update you if anything changes.
My house has a heavy oak front door. Can a standard lock be fitted?
Usually yes, but heavier doors need the right hardware. We fit BS3621 mortice deadlocks with a case suited to thicker doors, and check the hinges and frame so the door closes cleanly. That gives you a lock that meets insurance requirements without cutting into the door more than necessary.
Our Arkley home backs onto open Green Belt land. What should we secure first?
Homes with fields or woodland behind them often have quiet rear access, so we usually start at the back. Patio, French and bi-fold doors should have TS007 3-star anti-snap cylinders, side gates need sturdy locks, and garages or sheds holding tools are worth securing too. We can assess the whole property in one visit.
Do you also work in High Barnet and Borehamwood?
Yes. Alongside Arkley we cover High Barnet, Borehamwood, Elstree and Mill Hill, so neighbours and family nearby can call the same number for lockouts, repairs and lock changes at any time of day or night.
