How long does a typical lockout take?

Most domestic lockouts are resolved within 15-30 minutes of arrival, depending on the door and lock type.

I lost my keys — do I need to change the lock?

If there's any chance the keys could be used against you (lost outside, stolen, dropped in a public place), changing the cylinder is the safer option.

Can you help if I'm locked out of my car?

We focus on home and business locksmith work. For vehicles, an auto locksmith or your breakdown cover provider is usually a better fit.

Stay calm — most lockouts are quick to resolve
Have your address and door type ready

How we get you back in

Wherever possible we use non-destructive entry: picking, bypass tools and uPVC manipulation. Drilling is only used if the lock has mechanically failed.

If your key is lost or stolen

If you've lost your keys or they may have been stolen, we recommend replacing or rekeying the cylinder rather than just opening the door — this stops anyone using the missing key.
