How quickly can a locksmith reach me in Dunstable?
For an emergency lockout in Dunstable we normally arrive within 15 to 25 minutes, day or night. We cover the whole LU5 and LU6 area — the High Street crossroads, Beecroft, Icknield, Downside and out towards the Downs — so wherever you are stuck, the closest engineer is dispatched straight away.

Do you cover the older town-centre streets as well as the estates?
Yes. Dunstable mixes older houses around the ancient Watling Street crossroads with big interwar and postwar estates at Beecroft, Icknield and Downside, plus newer developments towards Houghton Regis. Our locksmiths carry parts for traditional mortice locks and nightlatches as well as multipoint mechanisms and anti-snap euro cylinders for uPVC and composite doors.

Are your Dunstable locksmiths DBS checked and insured?
Every locksmith we send to Dunstable 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 anywhere between the Downs and Houghton Regis.

What Our Customers Say
-
Locked out near the crossroads with the kids due off the school bus. He arrived in about 18 minutes, had the door open in moments and I was at the stop in time. Lifesaver.
-
New locks all round at our Beecroft semi after losing a set of keys in town. Anti-snap cylinders fitted the same evening, keyed alike. Quick, tidy and fairly priced.
-
uPVC door in Icknield wouldn't lift to lock. Engineer realigned it and replaced the tired gearbox in under an hour. £110 with the part — locks like new now.
-
Break-in through the back door while we were at work. They secured it that evening, fitted stronger locks with security handles next morning and checked the windows too. Thorough and kind.
-
Key snapped in the lock in Downside before an early shift. Out within 45 minutes, broken key extracted and a new cylinder fitted for £99. Cheerful, quick and a proper receipt.
