Emergency Lockouts

Emergency Locksmith in Leominster

Locked out of the house? Non-destructive entry wherever the lock allows it, evenings and weekends included, usually within the hour.

A lockout gets answered straight away and, where possible, Steve is on his way within the hour. One customer who could not find any locksmith available was back inside twenty minutes after calling; another was let back into the house on a Saturday, with the sticking lock that caused it changed at the same time.

Most euro cylinder and UPVC multipoint doors can be opened without drilling or forcing anything. That matters for two reasons: there is no damage to make good afterwards, and you are not paying for a new lock you did not need. Where a lock has already failed internally and has to be drilled out, a replacement goes straight back in so the door locks properly before Steve leaves.

The price is agreed before anything starts. Reviews consistently describe it as cheaper than the national locksmith companies, which is what happens when the person on your doorstep is the person you spoke to on the phone.

How emergency lockouts works

  1. Call and describe the doorSteve asks what kind of door and lock it is so he arrives with the right tools and cylinder if one is needed.
  2. A price before he sets offYou are told what it will cost to open the door, and what a new lock would add if the old one turns out to be broken.
  3. Non-destructive entryThe lock is picked or manipulated open wherever it can be, leaving the door and frame untouched.
  4. Made secure againIf the cylinder had to be drilled, a new one is fitted on the spot and tested with your keys before he goes.

Common questions about emergency lockouts

Will you damage my door getting in?

Not in most cases. Non-destructive entry is always tried first and works on the majority of euro cylinder and UPVC multipoint doors. Drilling is a last resort, used only when a lock has already failed internally, and a new cylinder is fitted immediately afterwards.

How fast can you get here?

Usually within the hour around Leominster, Hereford and Ludlow. One review describes being back inside twenty minutes after calling, and another a Saturday lockout answered within the hour.

Do you charge more at night or at weekends?

You are quoted before Steve sets off, whatever the time, so you know exactly what the call-out will cost before you agree to it.

I have snapped my key in the lock, can that be fixed?

Yes. The broken section is extracted and, if the cylinder is undamaged, your remaining key will keep working. If the barrel has been damaged it is replaced there and then.
