Emergency lockouts
Locked out at home or work? Lockouts are top priority, and we use non-destructive entry wherever possible so the lock stays intact.
Learn moreLock repairs
Sticking cylinders, latches that drag, mortice locks that won't throw — we diagnose the true fault and repair where repair makes sense.
Learn moreLock changes & replacement
Lost keys, a new tenancy or after a break-in — we change or rekey locks to restore control over who can access your property.
Learn moreDoor & multipoint repairs
Handle stiff, or the door only locks under pressure? Usually a worn multipoint gearbox or a dropped door — we repair or replace the mechanism.
Learn moreSecurity upgrades
Cylinders rated against snap, bump and pick attacks, alongside BS-grade locks that satisfy insurers and stand up to today's break-in techniques.
Learn moreBurglary repairs & boarding
After a break-in, the make-safe comes first — then permanent repairs to the door, frame, locks and any weak point that was exploited.
Learn moreWindows, garages & shutters
It's not just front doors. We repair window locks, garage locks, roller shutters and security grilles too.
Learn moreCommercial locksmiths
Shops, offices, landlords and HMOs — access control, master-key suites, smart locks and routine lock maintenance.
Learn moreWhat affects the cost?
Locksmith pricing varies because the work varies — but we're always upfront. You'll get a clear price before we start, with no call-out fee and no VAT surprises.
- Type of job. Lockout vs repair vs full lock change vs security upgrade.
- Time of attendance. Standard hours vs out-of-hours callouts.
- Parts required. Standard cylinders and parts vs anti-snap or BS-rated upgrade hardware.
- Complexity. The number of locks and doors, and the complexity of the mechanism.
A locksmith you can trust
Outcomes vary widely between traders, so trust comes down to process and transparency. With us you get:
- Clear explanation of your options — repair vs replace, and why
- Non-destructive methods first — drilling only as a last resort
- We verify part compatibility before fitting — especially critical on multipoint locks
- Door tested after work: smooth latch, full bolt throw, correct engagement
- A written record of every part fitted and every step done
Locksmith FAQs
Do you charge a call-out fee?
No — we don't charge a call-out fee. The price quoted on the phone (or at the door) is the price you pay; if anything would change it, we tell you first.
Will my lock need to be drilled to get me back in?
Yes — in most cases we can gain entry using non-destructive techniques, so your lock is undamaged and doesn't need replacing.
Is a lock change enough after I've lost my keys?
A straightforward lock change normally does the job. If the existing locks are weak (basic euro cylinders, no anti-snap protection), we'll mention it — but there's no pressure to upgrade.
Are your engineers DBS-checked and insured?
Yes. Our engineers are DBS-checked and the work is fully insured, with full credentials behind it.
Why does my uPVC door in Thornton Heath only lock if I force the handle up?
A handle that needs forcing usually means the gearbox is wearing out or the door has dropped out of alignment with the keep plates. We replace the gearbox and re-align the door so it locks effortlessly.
How quickly can you get to me in Thornton Heath?
On urgent callouts in Thornton Heath we typically reach you within 30 minutes — traffic and exact address permitting. The phone is answered 24/7, including weekends and holidays.
