Frequently Asked Questions — Crewe
-
I've slammed the door behind me, what now?
Call us, sit somewhere warm, don't try to force the door. Most slammed Yale-style night latches open in under five minutes once the engineer arrives.
-
I'm a tenant in Crewe, can you let me in?
Yes. ID matching the address is enough, or we can liaise with your letting agent or landlord on the phone if needed.
-
Will I need a new lock after a lockout?
Almost never. Picking and bypass leave the existing cylinder fully working. Only failed mechanisms get replaced.
-
My uPVC door is jammed shut, can you help?
Yes. Stuck multipoint locks are a common Crewe callout, especially on doors that have dropped on the hinges. Engineer usually opens without snapping the cylinder.
-
Key broken in the lock, what next?
Engineer brings a key extractor, removes the broken section, often without damaging the cylinder. New key cut on the van where possible.
-
Old Victorian terrace, mortice lock, can you still help?
Yes. Plenty of Crewe railway-era terraces still have original mortice locks. We carry picks for older lever locks and BS3621 replacements if a swap is needed.
-
I'm worried about the cost late at night, what's the rate?
Out-of-hours rate is quoted in full before we dispatch. No doorstep adjustments, no surprise add-ons.
