How much does a locksmith cost?
Locksmith prices depend on the scope of work, type of locks and other factors, so we can only quote a price once our locksmiths have assessed your security. This will be a free, no-obligation quote, so we’ll only start work once you’re completely happy with the price.
From changing locks to installing house alarms, we always offer competitive, all-inclusive pricing with no hidden costs. Smart locks are fully fitted and guaranteed for £295, while our smart alarm bundles start at £549.
What can a locksmith do?
Our MLA-approved locksmiths can change locks and cut keys, but they also offer a huge range of other services to improve your security. Locksmiths can install house alarm systems, fit innovative smart locks, implement advanced master key systems, open damaged safes, and upgrade your locks to strong anti-snap locks.
Whether you’re moving into a new house, have recently had a break-in, or simply want to improve your home security, our experienced locksmiths offer all the services you need!

Our fleet of mobile locksmiths covers areas all over the UK, so we’ll always send a locksmith near to you. From London to Glasgow, we offer our fast, friendly and reliable services almost everywhere, so give us a call to find your nearest locksmith!
How soon will your locksmiths arrive?
We can usually get a locksmith to you within 1 hour when it’s an emergency. In non-emergency situations, you can book a specific date and time for our locksmiths to arrive, subject to availability!

Will you repair or replace my door lock?
This depends on the nature of the issue. If you’ve recently suffered a break-in or lost your keys, we’ll always change your locks to ensure your home is secure.
However, if your locks are damaged or faulty, we’ll always try to repair rather than replace them, as this is the most cost-effective solution.

Can I get a free quote?
Yes, we offer a free, no-obligation quote on all of our jobs. Whether you want to replace locks or install a complex master key system, our locksmiths will always assess your security before quoting a price.
Have all your locksmiths been DBS-checked?
Yes, every locksmith is Enhanced DBS-checked, approved by the Master Locksmith Association and regularly inspected.
