What is your emergency locksmith service?
We understand how frustrating and stressful a lockout or locksmith-related emergency can be. Our experts are available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, to provide you with a wide range of emergency locksmith services. We are available to help you with any lockout situation and to provide quick, effective solutions at all times, including keys to your property and emergency home security.
What is your garage door lock repair service?
Garage doors are very heavy-duty and are often used regularly. This causes significant wear and tear on your garage door’s mechanisms, and your locking mechanisms and the lock itself also suffer damage over time. Whether your garage door lock has been damaged over time, is sticking, has difficulty locking or has been damaged in a break or attempted break-in, we have you covered. We ensure your garage door operates safely and securely.
What is your double-glazing lock repair service?
We fix double-glazing locking mechanisms. We understand that the security of your home is your top priority, and damaged double-glazing locks can pose a security risk to your property. There are a range of reasons your lock can become damaged, and we can repair your locks without replacing handles or the entire window or door, saving you money on costly replacements.
What is your regular lock repair service?
We offer quick, efficient lock repair services to restore your security quickly. We can fix any lock issue, and we always use non-invasive, non-damaging techniques to prevent damage without replacing the entire mechanism.
What is your lock installation service?
We can install upgraded, advanced locks to enhance the security of your property. We will handle the entire installation process and provide you with free, impartial recommendations to enhance your property’s overall security. If you are happy with our recommendations, then we will install your new locks to enhance the security of your property.
What tools and industry knowledge do you use?
We use advanced tools and stay up to date with the latest industry knowledge to bring it to your doorstep. This focuses on non-invasive strategies and technologies to ensure that we don’t just break your lock and provide a replacement; we try to use everything possible to repair your lock before having to replace the entire lock, which will add additional costs to getting your lock fixed and working properly. It’s important to note that, in some circumstances, we will unfortunately have to replace your lock if it is severely damaged or has specific issues.
How do you prioritise the security of my home or property?
We will attend to your property urgently if you have an emergency, such as being locked out or the building being insecure. Our first priority is to secure the building, especially if your door isn’t locking properly, and to get you back into the property while avoiding damage to the lock where possible. We ensure the property is secured and you are kept safe while providing a quick and efficient service.
Can you repair locks rather than replacing them where possible?
Yes, wherever possible, we aim to repair locks rather than replace them. Our experienced locksmiths will always assess the condition of your lock first and carry out a repair if it is safe and reliable to do so. This can include tightening mechanisms, adjusting components, or fixing worn parts. If a repair is not suitable or would compromise security, we will explain the issue clearly and advise on the best replacement option to keep your home secure.
What happens if my key breaks off in the door?
If your key breaks off in the lock, our locksmiths can safely remove it without damaging the lock or door, wherever possible. Using specialist tools or non-disruptive techniques, we will carefully extract the broken key and assess the lock’s condition. In many cases, the lock can still be used once the key is removed. If the lock has been damaged or is no longer secure, we will explain the issue and advise on the best solution to restore your home’s security.
Can you help me if my home no longer feels secure?
Yes, we can help if your home no longer feels secure. Our locksmiths can inspect your existing locks, identify faults or weaknesses, and carry out the necessary repairs or replacements to restore your security. This may include installing work locks, replacing existing locks, and improving the overall reliability of your door and window locking systems.
Do you prioritise non-destructive entry?
This is one of the key aspects of our service. We always unlock your doors without damaging your property. Our locksmiths have the expertise to handle even the most complex lock systems without resorting to force or damaging your locks.
What are common issues with locks that need to be fixed?
We can help you with a range of common issues. There are many issues you may be ignoring that could become big problems later, such as complete lock failure, lockouts, and an insecure property vulnerable to potential break-ins. Stiff locks or locks that are sticking, the key turning without activating the bolt, keys snapping inside the cylinder and misalignment between the bolt and strike plate are all common issues that need to be fixed. There are some issues where you can clean the lock; they can be caused by debris that builds up over time, rather than mechanical failure that requires repair by our expert team. You should spray the mechanism with a silicone lubricant, not WD-40. If this doesn’t fix the issue, then you will need to speak to our team.
What are the key indicators of faulty lock mechanisms?
If you spray your lock with silicone lubricant, graphite powder, or Teflon-based lubricant after cleaning the locking mechanism and nothing happens, the lock is likely faulty. This should be done once or twice a year to maintain your locks. If the lock is sticking, you can feel the key is getting physically close to breaking in the lock, or you can’t lock the mechanism at all, then this is the first task: check your locking mechanism. If the mechanism still has these issues, you need to arrange for our experts to assess and repair it.
Can you fix misaligned doors/locks?
Yes, misaligned doors and locks can cause locking issues. If you aren’t confident doing this yourself, we can fix it for you during our visit. We will assess your lock for any issues and fix these when we attend the property.
How can you help me during a lockout?
We understand that a lockout is extremely stressful and that you need to get access to your property fast. Our emergency locksmith service covers lockouts, ensuring we can get you back into your property 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. We will always try to enter your property without damaging the locking mechanism, to get you access quickly without adding the cost of replacing the entire mechanism.
Should I repair my door if it’s sticking or hard to close?
Yes, sticking and hard-to-close doors pose a problem because the door might not lock properly, or the door could malfunction and lock you out of the property without your keys. If the door is slightly damaged, it will worsen over time, potentially causing more serious problems and further damage down the line. Cleaning the mechanism may solve the issue, so it’s advised to try cleaning the lock with silicone lubricant, graphite powder, or a Teflon-based lubricant. Avoid using WD-40. If this hasn’t fixed the issue, then contact our expert team to arrange for a repair of your locking mechanism.
Can you help me with snapped keys and locks?
Snapped locks can be very frustrating, as you have broken your key and potentially the mechanism if the key is stuck deep in the lock. With some snapped keys, you can try to pull the key out with fine-nosed pliers, lubricate it, use a melted glue stick to pull it out, or use the thin end of a jigsaw blade to push the broken key out. If the key is very stuck, you need expert tools (which we will use to remove your key without damage, where possible), such as a broken-key specialist extractor. If the key is too far in the locking mechanism, these methods do not work, or you don’t want to risk a DIY extraction, then you need to speak to our team. We will then extract your broken key, cut a new key or replace the lock if it is severely damaged.
