Frequently Asked Questions — Leeds

  • Locked out in Leeds, what's the first move?

    Call 0800 048 5569. Confirm your LS postcode, the type of door and whether the key is missing or broken. The nearest engineer is dispatched right away.

  • How long is the wait?

    15 to 20 minutes for most LS postcodes. Engineers are spread across central Leeds, Headingley and Hunslet so even calls from Wetherby usually stay inside half an hour.

  • Will my door be forced?

    Almost never. Picking, bumping and bypass methods open most locks cleanly. Drilling is a last resort and a new cylinder is fitted on the spot.

  • How much for a lockout?

    £49 to £89 depending on lock type and time. Quoted at booking and confirmed once the engineer is on the doorstep.

  • Will you ask for ID?

    Yes. ID matching the address is needed before opening the door. Driving licence, recent bill, tenancy agreement or bank card with letter all work.

  • What if my key has snapped?

    Bring the broken half if you have it. The piece in the lock is extracted and the cylinder only replaced if the mechanism is damaged.

  • Students locked out around Headingley?

    Yes, regular work in LS6 and LS4. Shared houses are handled like any tenant call. Halls and managed accommodation usually need confirmation from the warden first.
