Emergency lockouts
Locked out of your home or business? We prioritise lockouts and use non-destructive entry wherever possible — so your lock isn't damaged.
Learn moreLock repairs
Sticking cylinders, latches that won't spring back, mortice locks that bind — we diagnose and repair rather than replace where it's safe and cost-effective.
Learn moreLock changes & replacement
Moving in, lost keys or post-break-in — a lock change (or a rekey) restores control over who can open your doors.
Learn moreDoor & multipoint repairs
If the door only locks when you fight the handle, the multipoint mechanism is wearing or the door's misaligned. We diagnose, then repair or replace.
Learn moreSecurity upgrades
Anti-snap, anti-bump and anti-pick cylinders, plus BS-rated locks — built to meet insurance requirements and to resist modern attack methods.
Learn moreBurglary repairs & boarding
After a break-in we secure your property fast, then sort permanent repairs — doors, frames, locks and weak points.
Learn moreWindows, garages & shutters
Front doors aren't the whole story — we repair window locks, garage locks, roller shutters and security grilles too.
Learn moreCommercial locksmiths
Access control, master-key suites, smart locks and lock maintenance for shops, offices, landlords and HMOs.
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 vs repair vs full lock change vs security upgrade.
- Time of attendance. Office hours vs out-of-hours attendance.
- Parts required. Standard cylinders and parts vs anti-snap or BS-rated upgrade hardware.
- Complexity. Number of locks and doors, and the type of mechanism.
A locksmith you can trust
Outcomes vary widely between traders, so trust comes down to process and transparency. With us you get:
- Clear explanation of your options — repair vs replace, and why
- Non-destructive entry first; drilling only when no other route works
- Parts checked for fit and compatibility, particularly on multipoint mechanisms
- Door tested after work: smooth latch, full bolt throw, correct engagement
- Itemised receipt covering parts fitted and work completed
Locksmith FAQs
Are your engineers DBS-checked and insured?
Yes — DBS checks, full public liability insurance and proper credentials across the whole team. Happy to show ID at the door.
Why does my uPVC door only lock if I lift the handle hard?
A handle that needs forcing usually means the gearbox is wearing out or the door has dropped out of alignment with the keep plates. We replace the gearbox and re-align the door so it locks effortlessly.
Is there a call-out fee for callouts in Bow?
No. There's no call-out fee and no VAT surprises — you get a clear price before any work begins.
What's your typical response time?
On urgent callouts in Bow we typically reach you within 30 minutes — traffic and exact address permitting. The phone is answered 24/7, including weekends and holidays.
Will my lock need to be drilled to get me back in?
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.
Lost keys in Bow — is changing the lock enough?
Often yes — changing or rekeying the affected locks restores control. We'll advise if a security upgrade is worthwhile at the same time.
