Frequently Asked Questions — Dudley
-
Keys are inside the house, what should I do?
Stay near the door, ring the office, and an engineer is dispatched. Most Dudley lockouts are picked open in under 10 minutes once on site.
-
Door slammed shut on the latch, can you open it?
Yes, a latched Yale is the quickest job we do. Often opened in 2 to 3 minutes with no damage.
-
How much will a Dudley lockout cost?
Between £49 and £89 depending on the lock and time of day. The price is confirmed before the engineer leaves base.
-
The key turns but the door won't open, why?
Usually the multipoint or gearbox in a uPVC door has failed. The engineer will get you in and replace the failed part from van stock.
-
Can a deadlocked mortice be opened without breaking it?
Most BS3621 mortice locks pick open with experience. If yours can't, a clean drill keeps damage to the cylinder only.
-
I'm locked out near the high street with no signal, what now?
Step into a shop or pub and use a phone to ring the office. We'll dispatch and call back to confirm arrival.
-
Will the engineer wait while I find ID?
Yes. Proof of address always comes before the door opens. A licence, recent bill, or letter is fine.
Have a different question? Just call.

Toddler turned the latch from inside the house while I was watering plants. Engineer was at the door in 19 minutes, opened in 4. £49 day rate.
-
Snapped key in the front door of our terrace near the high street. Engineer extracted with picks, didn't drill, declined to replace the lock because it was fine. Honest call.
-
Patio multipoint had jammed mid-summer, door wouldn't close at all. Replaced full track, all rollers swapped, slides easy now. £149.
-
Came home from Stourbridge to find the back door forced. They were out within 50 minutes, secured the property, fitted a new anti-snap cylinder the next day. Insurance accepted everything.
