Chalton is small, with listed buildings like Gostelow House and Yew Tree Farm and older timber-framed cottages, plus later family houses. The old properties have mortice locks and night latches. Some of the timber doors need a lock sized to their thickness, which we carry. Newer homes are uPVC multipoint.
