While there are limited job opportunities within the village, it is primarily a residential area for commuters who travel to London or nearby towns using the frequent half-hourly trains to Moorgate station. The village is home to a primary school and nursery school, as well as the co-educational Heath Mount independent school located on the outskirts of the village in the private estate of the Grade II listed Woodhall Park.

The locks on uPVC doors are identified by a mechanism that requires users to lift the handles and turn the key to secure them. They are typically installed on double-glazed doors but are now also popular on new composite doors. One advantage of this type of lock is that it secures the door to the frame in three locations (top, bottom, and middle), unlike traditional locks that only have one position. However, the maintenance of these locks can be more complex and expensive if they need to be replaced. The lock itself is similar to a Euro lock cylinder and can be easily replaced with anti-drill and anti-snap locks, which we recommend as a replacement option.
If you have trouble lifting the handles with the door closed, it is usually a sign that the door is not properly shut or that the mechanism controlling the locking process is misaligned with the frame. We recommend that you contact a qualified locksmith to inspect the door and realign it with the frame to prevent costly repairs or potential security risks. You can easily book our locksmiths to adjust and service these locks by calling our office number 0800 707 4203.
