What our customers say

4.9 on Google · 187 reviews

“Snapped the key in the lock on a Sunday morning. Out within the hour, key extracted, new cylinder fitted, and the chap even oiled the hinges while he was at it.”

Eleanor W. · Richmond · Snapped key · 5 days ago

“We'd just bought the house and wanted every lock changed. One visit, keyed alike, and a proper explanation of what BS3621 actually means for the insurance. Very reassuring.”

Graham T. · Epsom · Moving house · 2 weeks ago

“Honest to a fault — told me the lock could be repaired rather than replaced and charged accordingly. Rare these days.”

Nadia K. · Sutton · Lock repair · 3 weeks ago

FAQ

Questions people ask us

How quickly can you get a locksmith to me?+

For a lockout we aim to be with you within 20 to 40 minutes anywhere we cover. You get an honest arrival time on the phone and the engineer rings when he's close.

Do you charge a call-out fee?+

No. You pay for the work, not for us turning up. Lockouts start from £59 and lock changes from £75; the engineer confirms the exact fixed price before he sets off.

Will you damage my door to get in?+

Almost never. Our engineers open the vast majority of locks non-destructively. If a lock does have to be drilled we tell you first and fit a new one straight away.

Are your locks insurance approved?+

Yes. We fit BS3621 mortice locks and TS007 anti-snap cylinders and give you a dated receipt showing the grade.

Do you do car keys?+

No. We're a home and business locksmith and don't cut or programme vehicle keys.

Which areas do you cover?+

London and the Home Counties — see the full list of towns on our areas page. Each has a local number and a local engineer.
