How quickly can a locksmith reach me in Barnstaple?

For an emergency lockout in Barnstaple we normally arrive within 20 to 30 minutes, day or night. We cover the whole EX31 and EX32 area — the town centre and Pannier Market, Pilton, Newport, Sticklepath and the newer estates at Roundswell — so wherever you are stuck, an engineer is dispatched straight away.

Do you cover the older town houses as well as the new Roundswell estates?

Our locksmiths carry parts for traditional mortice locks and nightlatches on period doors as well as the multipoint mechanisms and euro cylinders fitted to new-build uPVC and composite doors.

Are your Barnstaple locksmiths DBS checked and insured?

Every locksmith we send to Barnstaple is DBS checked and fully insured, carrying £2m public liability cover. You will always deal with a properly vetted, uniformed engineer, which matters when you are letting someone into your home late at night in town or out in a North Devon village.

How much does it cost to change a lock in Barnstaple?

A common job is replacing a euro cylinder on a uPVC or composite door. We charge from £89 to £129 for a TS007 3-star euro cylinder, supplied and fitted, which is the anti-snap standard insurers and Devon & Cornwall Police recommend. We confirm the price before we start any work, so there are no surprises once the job is done.

What Our Customers Say

Locked out near the Pannier Market with a van full of stock. He was with me in about 25 minutes, opened up cleanly and I barely lost any of the morning. Cracking service.

Tim R. Emergency lockout
Moved into a new-build at Roundswell and had every cylinder upgraded to anti-snap. He keyed them alike so one key does the lot and left a spare set labelled. Thoughtful, tidy work.

Katie S. Lock change
Our uPVC door in Sticklepath dropped over the winter and wouldn't lock without a fight. Engineer realigned it and serviced the mechanism — first-time locking ever since. £90 well spent.

Philip D. uPVC door repair
Break-in at our terrace in Pilton while we were at work. They boarded the door that evening, fitted new locks next morning and rang a few days later to check on us. Went well beyond.

Maria G. Burglary repair
Key snapped off in the lock on a Sunday teatime in Newport. Out inside the hour, extracted the key and fitted a new cylinder for £102. Friendly, quick and left no mess.
