Frequently Asked Questions — Truro

  • How fast can someone get to me if I'm locked out in Truro?

    City-centre and TR1 addresses see an engineer in 18 to 22 minutes. Outlying parishes and Falmouth add a few minutes onto that depending on traffic.

  • What does a lockout call cost?

    Most non-destructive entries are £49 to £69. Anti-social hours stay at the same rate. The price is confirmed before the engineer leaves the depot.

  • Will you have to drill the lock?

    Drilling is reserved for cylinders that are already internally damaged or seized solid. Standard domestic locks open with picks, bumps or letterbox tools without a mark.

  • I've lost my keys. What now?

    If we suspect the keys are gone for good, the safer option is replacing the cylinder rather than just letting you in. We'll discuss the options before doing anything you'll pay for.

  • Can you let me into a rental flat?

    Yes, with proof you live there. A driving licence, recent letter or a tenancy reference is enough. We don't unlock doors for anyone who can't show they belong inside.

  • What if my lock is electronic or smart?

    Yale Conexis, Ultion Nuki and similar smart locks are a slightly different job. We carry the parts to bypass or reset most popular models.

  • Do you cover the surrounding villages?

    Yes, the TR area as a whole including Falmouth, Penryn, Redruth and St Austell, plus the smaller hamlets between. Response times stretch a little for the outer postcodes.
