    An overall excellent experience. Jason and team were great in communicating their availability and cost. The appointment was soon after the job was posted. Jason's work is excellent, he was explaining all steps in the way, and did a fantastic job.

    JW Security made fire-door upgrades to our front door. They were very helpful and communicative, delivered a quote very quickly, and the work was carried out to a very high standard. Recommend.

    Excellent service Very knowledgeable fixed my doors quickly and changed a lock which I asked about while they were here. Wish i had found them before wasting money on others who couldn't do the job. Prices are also very reasonable Very friendly and polite. Would definitely recommend them and will keep their number for any future work I need.

    Friendly, professional and good quality work

    Posted 10 June

    JW Security carried out some work in our school in a friendly and highly professional manner. They were able to resolve the problem. The price was good and fair. I have already recommended them to the academy next door who needed similar works done. They have a very good team. I would definitely call them again if I needed work done on aluminium doors and fire doors. 10/10

    Fire door update to legal standards.

    Posted 10 June

    They were extremely clear regarding meeting and evidencing the standards needed to upgrade the door. They supplied in depth narrative/ proof and photos of the completed work.

JW Security was established in 1991 by Julian Whitter. The aim was to offer a professional and discreet service that home and business owners could trust in to protect their property.

Our service has proved a successful one and our company has grown over the last 20 years to provide an extensive range of locksmith and security related services to South London and Surrey.


We like to foster long term relationships with our customers, providing high quality services across multiple properties and businesses. Close to half our work comes from repeat business and good word of mouth.


JW Security is highly sensitive to customer needs and satisfaction and our whole team is professional and discreet. We have provided services to a number of high profile celebrities, government ministries, NHS services and high street banks who trust in us to get the job done properly and without any risk to privacy or internal security.


Everything we do is bespoke. No two jobs are ever the same, so every one of our projects starts out not just with a free estimate, but also a free security check and insurance schedule review to ensure you understand the complete security picture of your property or business.
