Locksmith service in Totton, SO40
Totton is a town just 5 miles from Southampton, with around 28,900 residents in the SO40 postcode. Edge of New Forest with substantial estate housing. The housing splits across the eras typical of the area — older period stock near the centre, post-war estate development through the residential streets, and newer estate building on the edges.
Totton has the housing mix you would expect for an area of its size and history. Older period property near the centre runs on timber doors with mortice locks, much of it now retrofitted with cylinder upgrades. Post-war estate housing through the central residential streets is mostly uPVC stock now after retrofit during the 1990s and 2000s.
