Locked in a room in Cranfield →Cranfield homes and the locks we see
Cranfield's High Street has older brick houses and cottages, and the village has grown steadily with estate housing around it. Many of those homes are let to students and university staff. That means plenty of lock changes between tenancies, keyed-alike sets for shared houses, and locks fitted to whatever standard the letting agent asks for. The doors themselves are mostly uPVC and composite multipoint.
