Our local locksmiths will need to check your ID

The best locksmiths won’t just open any door when you call for lockout service, as it could be a burglary attempt or someone trying to gain unlawful entry.

We can only open a door when we have information that shows who you are and that you live at the address.

This can be anything from a passport to a utility bill letter, but we do prefer a photo ID that has both your name and address written clearly on it.

For a rented home, we can speak to the landlord to verify that you are living in the property.

Assessing the situation before delivering lockout services

When you choose our local locksmith company for home and business security issues related to unlocking a door, we will assess the problems with the lock to understand the exact cause. 24 hour a day and 7 days a week, we can assist with residential and commercial locksmith services anytime.

Once we know the type of lock and the material of the door you have, we are better placed to open it in the right way.

It could be an issue with the door, the lock or the key, or all three.

Door opening and lock repair without causing damage

The best way to open a door for our clients is by picking the lock, but gaining access this way isn’t always possible.

Before we do anything to your door, which may damage the lock or the door itself, we will always consult with clients and give them a price for a new lock.

We’ll also let them know the scale, if any, of the damage to the residential property or business.

 

How do we gain entry to different lock types

We will check every lock to determine which entry technique will be best

If it needs to be removed, we can replace it, and if you’ve lost the key we can cut you a new one for the new lock:

Yale-style nightlatches

These are common secondary security system devices on wooden doors, and sometimes they can get stuck if the bolt won’t retract and lock. We can bypass or slip these without having to drill the door latch.

Mortice deadlock locks

Chosen for high levels of security, mortice deadlocks are difficult to get open by picking if they have 5-levers, but we will always attempt decoding before any precision drilling takes place to get it open.

Multipoint locks on uPVC

These locks can be tricky to open as the locking mechanisms are along the edge of the door; however, our locksmith company works with the best locksmiths who can bypass the mechanisms.

Internal door locks

These locks are not normally as high security as exterior doors, so our locksmith services can usually get them open with bypass techniques, for example, slipping the latch with a special tool to cause it to open.

Assistance with all kinds of residential and commercial locksmith services

Whatever kind of situation you’re facing, you can call our mobile locksmith for non-destructive entry techniques to get you back inside fast.

The key won't turn at all

Our locksmith services can use advanced techniques and tools to turn and open the lock without using a key.

We won’t drill where it’s not necessary, and we’ll always offer a suitable lock replacement if the lock has to be removed completely due to it being broken.

Broken snib requiring lock replacement

This is a small part of nightlatches, which can be manually used to lock and unlock the door.

If it breaks then the latch is not able to retract properly, but we can keep the lock intact and bypass it from the outside, depending on the make and model.

The key just spins around

When this is the case, it’s a sign that the mechanism which connects the latch to the cylinder has completely broken and needs a lock replacement.

High security locks can be put on instead to secure the home, and all locks will be tested before we leave.

The latch won't retract

The latch is a key part of any door security system as it moves into the strike plate in the frame and holds the door securely when locked.

It might just need some lubrication if it has seized, but sometimes the mechanisms that make it work will break completely.

Deadbolt is stuck

Homeowners often experience issues with deadbolts as they can seize if not properly maintained.

If it’s the deadbolt that’s preventing access to the home, our team has the tools they need to quickly respond to the exact situation and gain access for you again.

Safety issues with locked doors on homes and commercial properties

Having a locked door is annoying enough, but we will always treat your call with priority if you have:

  • a child locked inside who can’t open the door

  • a vulnerable adult who can’t be left alone

  • an elderly relative or friend

  • staff or customers who are trapped inside

Our locksmith team carries everything they need to gain access to the building, and if a lock is broken, then we will be able to perform a full lock change.

Boost your home or business security with an upgrade

Once entry has been gained, we’ll give you the full range of options, including installing high security locks, deadbolts, chains, and nightlatches.

If the lock is seized, then we can lubricate it to get it working again.

Moreover, if it does need to be replaced, then you can choose from a wide selection of products to match your home, including hinges and strike plates.

Thinking ahead with key cutting after a lock change

If the lock has been changed after you were locked out, then standard locks usually come with one or two keys.

If you have more family members or tenants who need them, then our locksmith company offers key cutting on-site.

This can be done whether you have a regular cylinder installed or a high security lock that has a restricted key that prevents duplication by unauthorised people.

We can even offer keyed-alike solutions for multiple doors at the same time.

We recommend that locks meet high standards against break-ins.

That’s why our locksmiths are committed to showing you reliable, long-term locks, including BS3621 locks, for compliance with insurance policies

We’ll also show you the range of 3-star-rated TS007 cylinders, which have anti-snap, anti-bump, and anti-drill technology.

    FAQs

    What proof do you need to open my door?

    We’ll always need to see proof of who you are and that it is your place of residence before we can open the door for you. You can use any kind of identification for our mobile locksmiths, including a driving licence, a passport, or a bank statement. For rental properties, we will need landlord authorisation.

    Will the lock need to be replaced?

    Not always, because we use non-destructive methods to gain access, such as lock picking. We’ll use the best and most efficient tools for the job and aim not to damage the lock.

    Our locksmith services do guarantee to get you back inside, and in some cases, we’ll need to drill the locks. In those cases, the lock will need to be replaced.

    Can you cut me a spare set of keys?

    If you are having a new lock installed, then we can cut as many new keys as you need, but we do not offer an exclusive key-cutting service. This applies to key extractions where the key has broken and we can’t make a copy, and also keys that have worn down from frequent use. We will always show you locks from trusted brands that we can cut the keys for when we install them.
