You can book a locksmith for any non-emergency locksmith job in your home.

Some common locksmith tasks include:

  • Lock changes (for windows, front doors, patio doors, garage doors and more)
  • Lock repairs & replacement
  • Handle replacement & repairs (for windows and doors)
  • Safe opening service (including key safes and mailboxes)
  • Home security advice

You pay a minimum one hour callout charge for locksmith services.

If it's a repair job, the tradesperson will let you know whether your handle can be repaired once they've investigated the issue. If a repair isn't possible, you'll only pay the callout charge. The tradesperson will advise on the next steps, and may suggest a replacement instead of a repair.

If your repair or replacement job takes more than one hour, you’ll be charged for the additional time in 30 min increments (plus the cost of any materials). 

There's no hassle with cash - we accept Visa, Mastercard and American Express payment cards. 

When you fill out our online form, we'll ask for your address. We'll make sure that you're matched with a trusted locksmith who's based near you.

We usually have locksmiths available with 1 day's notice. Just choose a date and time that works for you when you book in.

The electrician was polite and efficient - he found the cause of the problem and fixed it. He also explained what he had done and why. The extra cost for materials was minimal.

Fantastic handyman! Had everything extra he needed that I didn't have (including string, extra screws, white cover-up stickers, etc. Lives by the golden rule of "measure twice, cut once". Incredibly thorough with the spirit level and everything was exact and perfect. He even managed to hang a massive picture frame in a very difficult and awkward place through some creative rejigging. Highly recommended.
