We strongly recommend that all other avenues such as CRAR (where appropriate) are explored prior to instructing us to effect peaceable re-entry. If forfeiting the lease or returning the commercial unit to the landlord through some other right under the Landlord and Tenant Act 1954 is appropriate; there are no other enforcement companies with our expertise in drafting notices, complying with the relevant laws and administering your duties as involuntary bailee.

‍

Many bailiffs state that they offer forfeiture as a service, we don’t but we do provide peaceable re-entry of a commercial premise to aid you in forfeiting a lease. You will have prepared the relevant notice (where required) under the Landlord and Tenant Act 1954 and you may wish to instruct us to serve such notice. Upon expiry of the notice or once the rent remains unpaid for the duration stated within the forfeiture clause of the lease (typically 21 days); you can instruct us to effect re-entry of the property providing that any breach has not been remedied.

‍

There are many other instances where you might instruct us to re-enter a commercial property such as expiry of the lease, an end to a tenancy at will or sufferance and as a consequence of forfeiture by proceedings to name a few. We are also able to exercise re-entry where a loan agreement of a commercial property has been forfeited.

Our agents and method of entry locksmiths will attend the vacant property, generally outside of trading hours but we can also attend 24 hour operations to effect peaceable re-entry. We will arrange engineers for properties fitted with electrical shutters and any other personnel such as security guards. The relevant notices will be affixed so that they are visible externally and an inventory of any goods will be recorded. All locks will be changed and we can secure the property according to your instructions.
