Frequently Asked Questions — Swansea

  • Do you offer 24 hour emergency locksmith cover in Swansea?

    Yes, around the clock every day. Whether it is a 3am lockout in Brynmill or a Sunday morning break-in in St Thomas, someone is on and can get to you. Call 0330 179 6077.

  • What counts as a locksmith emergency?

    Being locked out with no spare, a door that will not lock so the house is not secure, a snapped key stuck in the barrel, or damage after an attempted break-in. If you cannot secure your home tonight, that is an emergency and we prioritise it.

  • How quickly do you respond to emergencies across Swansea?

    Most of the city sees us inside 15 to 20 minutes. For a genuine security emergency, like a forced door on a Townhill flat or a Sketty semi that will not lock after a break-in, we push it to the front of the queue.

  • Can you secure my Swansea home after a burglary?

    Yes. We board up smashed panels, refit or replace forced locks and make the door secure the same night. We can also supply a report of the work for your insurer, which the SA1 apartment managing agents often ask for.

  • Do emergency call-outs cost more at night in Swansea?

    Our call-out starts from £39 and we tell you the full price on the phone before we set off. There are no surprise charges once we arrive, whatever the hour.

  • My uPVC door has jammed shut and I am locked out. Can you help urgently?

    Yes, this is one of the most common emergencies we get on the Sketty and West Cross semis. A failed multipoint gearbox can trap the door shut. We can open it without wrecking the frame in the vast majority of cases and fit a new mechanism on the spot.

  • Are you available on bank holidays in Swansea?

    We are. Christmas, Easter, bank holiday Mondays, the emergency line stays open. Holiday-home lockouts out at Mumbles and Gower are a regular bank-holiday call for us.

Have a different question? Just call.
