About Emergency Locksmith
An emergency locksmith is what you need when you can't wait until tomorrow. Locked out at 2am, broken lock that won't secure, post-burglary repair — all standard work for us. We dispatch 24 hours a day, every day of the year. No callout fee, no surcharge for evenings, weekends, or bank holidays.
Average response across our UK coverage is 15-20 minutes. We have engineers based in every postcode area we cover, not driving in from miles away. Whichever district you're in — central city, suburb, market town — the closest available engineer is dispatched first.
Common emergency calls: home lockouts, broken keys, snapped key in cylinder, jammed locks, post-burglary boarding-up, uPVC doors that won't lock with the family inside, conservatory door stuck open. We use non-destructive entry on 95% of jobs — your door and lock stay intact.
The price quoted on the phone is the price you pay. Most emergency lockouts are between £39 and £250, depending on the lock type. Card, contactless, bank transfer, or cash. We can't always see your face on the doorstep at 3am, but we can show ID and we'll never ask for payment before the work is done.
When to call us
- Late-night home lockout
Most common call. We pick the lock open, often within 10-15 minutes once on site, no damage to the door.
- Broken key in cylinder
Extracted with specialist tools. The lock usually survives without replacement.
- uPVC door won't lock
Multipoint mechanism failure. We can replace overnight in many cases, or temporarily secure until daylight.
- Post-burglary repair
Emergency boarding-up overnight. Full lock replacement and frame repair next morning. Insurer-friendly receipts.
- Vulnerable person inside
Tell us when you call. Kids, elderly relatives, pets — we prioritise these calls and dispatch the absolute closest engineer.
Final price always confirmed by phone before any work. No hidden charges.
