How quickly can a locksmith reach Lyme Regis?

Lyme Regis sits at the far west of the DT area near the Devon border, so we are usually 45 to 55 minutes away and give you an honest ETA. The steep streets down to the Cobb can slow the last stretch. For an urgent lockout we will tell you a realistic time for your exact address before setting off.

Does the coastal setting affect locks in Lyme Regis?

It does. Lyme sits right on the sea, so cylinders and multipoint mechanisms corrode and seize faster than they would inland, especially on properties down near the Cobb and the front. A good part of our Lyme work is freeing or replacing salt-affected locks and fitting hardware that copes better.

Can you work on the older cottages and holiday lets here?

Yes. Lyme Regis has plenty of older timber-doored cottages and a lot of holiday-let turnover, so we handle lockouts when guests lose keys, lock changes between lets, and seized older locks. We carry parts for traditional mortice locks and modern cylinders alike.

Are your Lyme Regis locksmiths DBS checked and insured?

Every engineer we send to Lyme Regis is DBS checked and carries 2 million pounds of public liability cover. You are letting someone into your home or let, so it matters they are vetted. ID is shown on arrival and our cover protects your property.

Which areas around Lyme Regis do you cover?

As well as Lyme itself we cover the surrounding DT7 area including Uplyme, Charmouth and the villages along the Jurassic Coast toward the Devon border. If you are nearby and unsure whether we reach you, ring us and we will confirm the ETA for your postcode.

What Our Customers Say

Guests at our holiday cottage near the Cobb lost the keys. He came out, got them in without damage, and cut a fresh set for me. 85 pounds and saved a very awkward changeover.

Wendy H. Emergency lockout
The lock on our front door by the seafront had seized with the salt. He freed it and fitted a new cylinder that should last better here. 92 pounds and honest about why it happens.

Nigel M. Lock change
Our uPVC back door in Uplyme stopped locking, the mechanism had corroded. He replaced it with better hardware for the exposed spot. 112 pounds and no more fighting with it.

Pauline W. uPVC door repair
Changed all the locks on a holiday let between guests. Three doors, keyed alike, 155 pounds. He was quick and left it spotless. Will use again for the next changeover.

Stuart R. Lock change
Locked out of our cottage in Charmouth on a wet evening. He rang to say the drive would take a while, then got the old door open with no damage. 80 pounds, fair given the distance.

Marion D. Emergency lockout
Snapped a key in the door of our place near the front. He extracted it and replaced the cylinder there and then, 82 pounds. Calm and clearly used to old coastal doors.
