Frequently Asked Questions — Liverpool
-
Locked out in Liverpool, what's step one?
Ring us first. Don't shoulder-barge the door, don't try the windows. Forced entry escalates a £49 problem into a £300+ frame repair. We can usually be on your doorstep in 15 to 22 minutes anywhere in L1 to L36.
-
Will the door get broken?
Almost never. Picking, bumping, or letterbox tools open the lock cleanly. Drilling only happens when the cylinder is already snapped or seized internally, and the replacement cylinder comes included in the price.
-
What does a typical lockout cost here?
Between £49 and £89 for a standard front door. Older locks on Georgian properties in L8 sometimes go higher. We confirm the figure on the call before sending anyone, and it doesn't change.
-
Lost keys or just snapped one off?
Lost keys means we open the door and recommend a cylinder swap so the lost ones can't be used. Snapped keys usually extract within ten minutes and you can keep the same lock if it isn't damaged.
-
Locked out the car, can you do that?
No. Auto locksmiths are a separate trade. We're domestic and small commercial only. Ring us anyway and we can recommend a vehicle locksmith.
-
Late night, kids inside, what happens?
Lockouts with kids, elderly relatives, or pets locked inside get bumped to the front of the queue. Out-of-hours response stays at 16 to 25 minutes across most of Liverpool. Tell the dispatcher who's inside when you ring.
-
Charged if a neighbour lets me in before you arrive?
No. If you're already in by the time we're round the corner, just call and tell us. No charge for the trip. Be straight so the slot can go to the next caller.
Have a different question? Just call.
