Locksmith service in Felixstowe, IP11
Felixstowe is a town just 12 miles from Ipswich, with around 24,500 residents in the IP11 postcode. Suffolk port and seaside resort. 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.
Felixstowe 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. Newer estate development uses composite doors with current-spec multipoint locks.
