Frequently Asked Questions — Whitehaven

• How quickly can a locksmith reach me in Whitehaven?

  For most CA28 addresses across Whitehaven we aim to be with you within 20 to 30 minutes. Our nearest engineers cover the town from the Carlisle side down the A595 as well as from bases closer to the harbour, so whether you are up by Haig Pit, along the Georgian grid near Lowther Street, or out towards the seafront, we can usually reach you quickly. Call 0330 179 6077 and we will give you an honest ETA before we set off.

• Can you help if I'm locked out of an older Georgian or terraced property?

  Yes. Much of central Whitehaven is made up of Georgian townhouses and Victorian terraces built on the planned grid streets, and these often have original timber doors, sash windows and older mortice locks. We regularly get calls from someone locked out of a Georgian terrace off Duke Street or Roper Street where the night latch has slammed shut. Our engineers are trained in non-destructive entry, so in the vast majority of cases we can open the door without damaging the period joinery or the lock itself.

• Are your locksmiths DBS checked and insured?

  Every engineer we send is DBS checked and fully insured, carrying £2m public liability cover. We know that letting a stranger work on your locks means trusting them in your home, so all of our locksmiths carry ID and can confirm the job details before any work begins. That is the standard we hold across Whitehaven and the wider west Cumbria area.

• How much does it cost to replace a euro cylinder lock?

  A common job is upgrading the euro cylinder in a uPVC or composite door to a high-security anti-snap unit. We charge from £89 to £129 for a TS007 3-star euro cylinder, supplied and fitted, depending on the size and specification your door needs. This is a British Standard rated cylinder that protects against snapping, bumping and picking. We will confirm the exact price on the phone once we know your door before we come out.

• Do you cover the towns around Whitehaven as well?

  We do. As well as Whitehaven itself we cover the surrounding CA postcode towns, including St Bees, Cleator Moor, Egremont, Frizington and the villages out towards the Sellafield area. If you are unsure whether your address is in our patch, just call 0330 179 6077 with your postcode and we will confirm and give you an ETA straight away.
