Emergency lockouts
Locked out of your home or business? We prioritise lockouts and use non-destructive entry wherever possible — so your lock isn't damaged.
Learn moreLock repairs
Sticking cylinders, latches that won't spring back, mortice locks that bind — we diagnose and repair rather than replace where it's safe and cost-effective.
Learn moreLock changes & replacement
Moving in, lost keys or post-break-in — a lock change (or a rekey) restores control over who can open your doors.
Learn moreDoor & multipoint repairs
If the door only locks when you fight the handle, the multipoint mechanism is wearing or the door's misaligned. We diagnose, then repair or replace.
Learn moreSecurity upgrades
Anti-snap, anti-bump and anti-pick cylinders and BS-rated locks that meet insurance requirements and resist modern attack methods.
Learn moreBurglary repairs & boarding
Break-ins get make-safe done immediately, followed by permanent repairs to the door, frame, locks and any weakness that was exploited.
Learn moreWindows, garages & shutters
Beyond front doors: window locks, garage locks, roller shutters and security grilles all get the same treatment.
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 working hours vs evening, night or weekend callouts.
- Parts required. Standard parts vs anti-snap or BS-rated 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 options laid out — repair or replace, and the reasoning behind the recommendation
- Non-destructive entry where feasible; drilling only as a last resort
- Parts checked for fit and compatibility, particularly on multipoint mechanisms
- Every door tested after the work — smooth latch, full bolt throw, clean engagement
- Itemised record of the parts fitted and work completed
Locksmith FAQs
My uPVC door only locks when I force the handle — what's wrong?
It's a classic sign that the multipoint mechanism is worn or that the door has dropped slightly on the hinges. We diagnose which on the spot and either swap the gearbox or re-align the hinges and keep plates.
How fast can you reach me when I'm locked out?
Most emergency callouts in the E postcodes we attend in under 30 minutes. We answer the phone 24 hours a day, every day of the year, and there's always an engineer on shift.
Do you charge a call-out fee?
No call-out fee, no hidden charges and no VAT shock at the end — you get a clear price up-front, before any work starts.
If I'm locked out in Wanstead, will the lock need to be drilled?
Yes — in most cases we can gain entry using non-destructive techniques, so your lock is undamaged and doesn't need replacing.
Are your Wanstead locksmiths DBS-checked and properly vetted?
Yes. Our engineers are DBS-checked and the work is fully insured, with full credentials behind it.
Is a lock change enough after I've lost my keys?
For most situations, yes. Changing or rekeying the affected cylinders restores control over who can access the property. We'll flag if an anti-snap upgrade is worth doing at the same time.
