Central Bradford is typically 15 to 20 minutes. Keighley, Shipley and Halifax usually 25 to 35 minutes.

-
What counts as an emergency?
Locked out, broken in, snapped key, jammed multipoint, door that won't close. Anything that stops you securing the property tonight.
-
Can you board up after a break-in?
Yes. Engineers carry plywood and timber for emergency boarding. Property secured the same night, permanent repair booked for the next working day.
-
Will home insurance cover the callout?
Many home policies include emergency locksmith cover. We provide itemised invoices showing parts, labour and lock specifications for your claim.

Do I need to be at the property?
For lockouts, yes, since we'll need ID linking you to the address. For pre-booked work a tenant or letting agent representative is fine.
