About the area
Kennington, door by door.
Kennington is a well-established and increasingly desirable inner south London neighbourhood sitting between the energy of Vauxhall and Elephant & Castle to the north and the quieter residential streets of Stockwell and Camberwell to the south. The area is home to the historic Oval cricket ground - home ground of Surrey Cricket Club and a regular Test match venue - and Kennington Park, one of inner south London's well-used green spaces. Properties in Kennington include fine Georgian terraces on the roads immediately around Kennington Park, Victorian mansion houses on the wider residential streets, and a growing number of modern apartment developments near the Oval and along the main transport corridors. Kennington's excellent transport links - Northern line at Kennington and Oval stations - make it one of the fastest postcodes to central London in south London, contributing to strong and consistent demand.

Do you work on Georgian terrace locks in Kennington?
Yes. Kennington's Georgian terraces typically use 5-lever mortice deadlocks on solid timber front doors - we service and replace these regularly across SE11. We also advise on upgrading older nightlatch hardware and fitting hinge bolts where additional security is beneficial.
