Can a High Court Enforcement Agent get a warrant of entry to force entry to my home?


No

Bailiffs and High Court Enforcement Agents cannot get a warrant to commit breaking and entering any private home. They cannot get a locksmith to get inside anyone's home or any private dwellinghouse.

Bailiffs can apply for a warrant to enter "specified premises",[1] but that is not authority to break into any private house or property occupied as a private dwelling, even if the writ or warrant specified the address for enforcement.

Bailiffs can break into private property when executing a landlords warrant of possession for non-payment of rent.
