Emergency lockouts
Locked out, key snapped, or lock jammed. We pick, bypass or decode first, so the lock you own still works afterwards.
A DBS-checked locksmith answers, gives you a fixed price before we set off, and opens your door without drilling wherever it can be done. £0 call-out. You pay only when it's fixed.

No call-out charge, ever. If we can't fix it, you don't pay a penny.
Every locksmith is DBS-checked, uniformed, ID-carded and fully insured.
Parts and labour guaranteed for a full year on every lock we fit.
Every van carries the stock to finish the job on the first visit: euro cylinders, BS3621 mortice locks, uPVC gearboxes, boarding and a key machine.
Locked out, key snapped, or lock jammed. We pick, bypass or decode first, so the lock you own still works afterwards.
Insurance-approved mortice and nightlatch locks, and anti-snap euro cylinders that resist the most common break-in method in London.
Handle flopping, key won't turn, door won't lift to lock. We replace the gearbox or full strip, not the whole door.
Same-night boarding and resecuring, then new locks to insurance spec. We send photos and an itemised report for your claim.
Lost combinations, failed keypads and seized boltwork opened by a safe engineer. Floor and wall safes supplied and anchored.
Keys cut in the van at your door, including restricted-profile cylinders. Lost a set? We re-key so the old ones are useless.
Lock changes between tenancies, booked by text, with key handover to your office and photo sign-off on the invoice.
Keyless and app-controlled locks fitted properly, keeping a BS-rated cylinder behind them so your insurance still stands.
No hold music, no booking form, no "engineer will call you back". Here's the whole thing, minute by minute.
Four quick questions: where you are, what door, what lock, and whether anyone's at risk inside.
You hear the full price on the phone and get it by text. That number is the number on the invoice.
You get the locksmith's name, photo and a live ETA link. They'll ring when they're two minutes out.
Non-destructive entry first. Card, contactless or transfer once you're happy, with a 12-month guarantee.
Guide prices include labour and VAT. Nights, weekends and bank holidays are priced into the quote you hear on the phone, never added at the door.
*£0 call-out. If we can't fix it, there's nothing to pay.
Six vans parked up across the patch overnight, so the nearest one is rarely more than a few miles from your door.
Pop in your postcode for an estimated arrival time. We'll confirm the exact ETA when you call.
"Locked out at 2am with my toddler asleep upstairs. He was at the door in 16 minutes and had it open without drilling anything. The price was exactly what I was told on the phone."
"After a break-in they boarded the back door the same night and fitted BS3621 locks the next morning. The photo report made the insurance claim painless."
"We manage a lot of lets across Sutton and Croydon. Lock changes between tenancies get booked by text, done same day, and the invoice arrives with photos."
"Our uPVC door wouldn't lock and another firm wanted to replace it. The Lock Doc swapped the gearbox in forty minutes for a fraction of that."
