Learn moreWhat affects the cost?
Locksmith pricing varies because the work varies — but we're always upfront. You'll get a clear price before we start, with no call-out fee and no VAT surprises.
- Type of job. Lockout, repair, lock change or a security upgrade.
- Time of attendance. Standard working hours vs evening, night or weekend callouts.
- Parts required. Standard cylinders and parts vs anti-snap or BS-rated upgrade hardware.
- Complexity. The number of locks and doors, and the complexity of the mechanism.

Outcomes vary widely between traders, so trust comes down to process and transparency. With us you get:
- Clear options laid out — repair or replace, and the reasoning behind the recommendation
- Non-destructive methods first — drilling only as a last resort
- Compatibility checks on parts, especially for multipoint locks
- Every door tested after the work — smooth latch, full bolt throw, clean engagement
- A written record of every part fitted and every step done
Locksmith FAQs
How fast can you reach me when I'm locked out?
For emergencies such as lockouts we aim to be with you in around 30 minutes, depending on traffic and where you are in the RM postcodes. We answer the phone 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
Can most lockouts be solved without drilling?
Yes, almost always. Drilling is the last resort: most modern cylinders can be picked or bypassed without damage, which is faster, cheaper and means no new lock afterwards.
My uPVC door only locks when I force the handle — what's wrong?
That's usually a failing multipoint gearbox or door misalignment. We can repair or replace the mechanism and realign the door so it locks smoothly again.
Are your locksmiths insured and vetted?
Yes — DBS checks, full public liability insurance and proper credentials across the whole team. Happy to show ID at the door.
Lost keys in Hornchurch — is changing the lock enough?
For most situations, yes. Changing or rekeying the affected cylinders restores control over who can access the property. We'll flag if an anti-snap upgrade is worth doing at the same time.
Is there a call-out fee for callouts in Hornchurch?
No call-out fee, no hidden charges and no VAT shock at the end — you get a clear price up-front, before any work starts.
