Emergency Locksmith FAQs
How quickly can you get to me?
In most of East London we arrive within around 30 minutes, and often faster in the evenings. When you call we’ll give you a realistic arrival time based on where you are and current traffic.
Do you charge a call-out fee?
No. We don’t charge a call-out fee — you only pay for the work carried out, and we agree the price with you before we start.
How much does an emergency locksmith cost?
It depends on the job, the lock and the time of day. As a guide, a standard euro cylinder starts from around £20–40 for the part, and deadlocks from £35. See our pricing page, or call 02071 186187 and we’ll give you a fixed quote before any work begins. You can also send photos of the lock for a more accurate price.
Will you damage my door or lock?
We always try non-destructive entry first, and the large majority of lockouts are opened without any damage. If a lock has to be drilled or replaced, we’ll explain why and agree the price before we do it.
What ID do I need before you unlock a property?
For security, we ask for photo ID and proof that you live at or are responsible for the property — for example a recent utility bill, bank statement or tenancy agreement. If your documents are inside, we can check them once the door is open.
Do you operate 24 hours a day?
Yes. We operate a genuine 24/7 service, 365 days a year, including nights, weekends and bank holidays.
