The gold standard for front doors, our signature nightlatches feature anti-drill cylinders and automatic deadlocking. With precision engineering and robust construction, the sight of a Banham nightlatch on a front door is a symbol of security, protecting British homes for generations.
For complete reassurance, mortice deadlocks are embedded into Banham doors to add an extra layer of security to your home or business. When paired with our signature nightlatches, the same patented key can be used across both locks in your system, for effortless integration.
Combining a latch and deadbolt in one elegant package, sash locks are perfectly suited to side and rear doors opening onto gardens and terraces, as well as internal office doors, for an additional layer of security.
When combining our nightlatch with one or two mortice deadlocks for comprehensive security, two single keys, paired to unlock each lock in your set, come as standard. Choose from our selection of finishes for a cohesive look.
Every one of our British-made locks merges time honoured practices with innovation, distilled through the hands of our master lock makers. The feeling of security that comes with a Banham lock hasn't changed since 1926 - but what has is the key that opens them. Our patented keys can be paired to multiple locks in your system, for very modern convenience.
“Banham redefines the everyday with a lock elevated into an object of craft and distinction. Judges praised its originality, engineering integrity, and the delight of transforming something functional into something 'that makes you feel safe'. With its tactile key design, the Banham lock stood out as unexpected and refreshingly distinctive.”

Banham locks have been a security gold standard since 1926, when our founder invented the world’s first automatic door bolt.
Hand crafted in Britain using time‑honoured forging processes including molten metal casting, hot stamping and skilled lock assembly, our locks are renowned for patented precision‑engineering and exceptional strength.
Are Banham locks British Standard approved?
Yes. Our front door locks are compliant with BS3621, the insurance‑approved security standard for external door locks.
Yes. Our locks can be keyed alike, meaning that one of our patented dimpled keys can operate multiple door locks on your property for ease and convenience.
How secure are Banham locks?
All of our locks are known for their superior strength and precision engineering and the lock comes with various security features, one of which is our Key Registration system which means we will only copy a Mark III key with your authorisation.
Can Banham locks be installed on existing doors?
Yes. We always recommend changing both the door and frame, but in some instances this isn’t feasible so we can fit a new door into an existing frame. With any new doors we can replicate period design features, and offer colour matching.
How do I order Banham keys?
You can order new keys in person from one of our showrooms. We cut every key to order, and our Key Registration service means that we will only copy our patent protected Mark III key with your permission. To find your nearest location, visit our showroom page.
