Emergency lockouts
Stuck outside your home or business? Lockouts go straight to the front of the queue, and we open the door without damaging the lock whenever the mechanism allows.
Learn moreLock repairs
Cylinders that stick, latches that fail to spring back, mortice locks that bind — we repair the existing lock rather than replace it wherever it's safe and sensible.
Learn moreLock changes & replacement
Moving in, lost keys or post-break-in — a lock change (or a rekey) restores control over who can open your doors.
Learn moreDoor & multipoint repairs
Door only locks if you lift the handle hard? That's usually a worn gearbox or misalignment. We repair and replace multipoint mechanisms.
Learn moreSecurity upgrades
Cylinders rated against snap, bump and pick attacks, alongside BS-grade locks that satisfy insurers and stand up to today's break-in techniques.
Learn moreBurglary repairs & boarding
After a break-in we secure your property fast, then sort permanent repairs — doors, frames, locks and weak points.
Learn moreWindows, garages & shutters
It's not just front doors. We repair window locks, garage locks, roller shutters and security grilles too.
Learn moreCommercial locksmiths
Shops, offices, landlords and HMOs — access control, master-key suites, smart locks and routine lock maintenance.
Learn moreWhat affects the cost?
Locksmith pricing varies because the work varies — but we're always upfront. You'll get a clear price before we start, with no call-out fee and no VAT surprises.
- Type of job. Whether it's a lockout, a repair, a lock change, or a security upgrade.
- Time of attendance. Office hours vs out-of-hours attendance.
- Parts required. Standard parts vs anti-snap or BS-rated hardware.
- Complexity. The number of locks and doors, and the complexity of the mechanism.
A locksmith you can trust
Outcomes vary widely between traders, so trust comes down to process and transparency. With us you get:
- Plain-English breakdown: what we'd repair, what we'd replace, and why
- Non-destructive entry where feasible; drilling only as a last resort
- We verify part compatibility before fitting — especially critical on multipoint locks
- Post-job test: latch smooth, bolt throws fully, and all locking points engage correctly
- Itemised record of the parts fitted and work completed
Locksmith FAQs
Will my lock need to be drilled to get me back in?
Yes, almost always. Drilling is the last resort: most modern cylinders can be picked or bypassed without damage, which is faster, cheaper and means no new lock afterwards.
Lost keys in Southgate — is changing the lock enough?
Often yes — changing or rekeying the affected locks restores control. We'll advise if a security upgrade is worthwhile at the same time.
What's your typical response time?
On urgent callouts in Southgate we typically reach you within 30 minutes — traffic and exact address permitting. The phone is answered 24/7, including weekends and holidays.
Is there a call-out fee for callouts in Southgate?
No. There's no call-out fee and no VAT surprises — you get a clear price before any work begins.
Are your engineers DBS-checked and insured?
Yes — DBS checks, full public liability insurance and proper credentials across the whole team. Happy to show ID at the door.
Why does my uPVC door only lock if I lift the handle hard?
A handle that needs forcing usually means the gearbox is wearing out or the door has dropped out of alignment with the keep plates. We replace the gearbox and re-align the door so it locks effortlessly.
