The cost varies depending on the time of night, your specific location, and the type of lock we need to open.
However, we believe in transparent pricing. When you call us on 0800 506 111, we can often provide an estimated cost over the phone so you know what to expect before we arrive, with no hidden surprises.
In the vast majority of cases, no. Our technicians are trained in non-destructive entry methods, such as lock picking or bypassing the latch.
We aim to get you back inside without causing any damage to your door or hardware. Drilling the lock is only ever used as a last resort if the lock has failed mechanically or is a high-security model that cannot be picked.
We strongly advise against this. Breaking a window is dangerous due to the shattered glass and is almost always more expensive to repair than the cost of a locksmith callout.
Glazing repairs can run into the hundreds of dollars, especially for double-glazing, whereas our service is safe, fast, and leaves your home secure.
We pride ourselves on rapid response times for home lockouts. With mobile vans operating from 15 locations nationwide, we are never far away.
When you book a job, our dispatch team will give you a clear ETA so you aren't left waiting in the cold.
If your keys are lost or stolen, simply unlocking the door isn't enough to keep you safe.
Once we get you inside, we can immediately rekey your existing locks on the spot. This renders the old, lost keys useless and ensures that no one else can use them to enter your home later.
