Emergency call, 20 minutes later I am at your Southampton door

Whether you are locked out or need locks changed rapidly, my emergency service can be at your door quicker than you think, usually within 20 minutes anywhere in the SO postcodes. There is no call out fee and all quotations are free of charge. As your local locksmith in Southampton, I bring over 10 years of experience with every type of lock.

Non-destructive lock entry

We have all lost keys at some point, and there is nothing worse than standing outside your own front door. What you do not want is that door damaged in the process of getting back in. I use specialist tools to gain entry through all types of locks on windows and doors, without causing untold damage. The door opens, the frame survives, you get on with your day.

Door or lock jammed, or the key will not turn?

If you have a lock that is jammed or has broken, I can visit at an hour to suit you and survey the work needed. If the lock just needs a service or repair, I carry out repairs the same day rather than defaulting to a full replacement. That honesty is why customers come back.

Lost keys? Change the locks

For peace of mind, I recommend changing or rekeying every lock a lost key opened. Lock changes are simpler and more affordable than most people expect, and they are a needed security measure. You do not know whose pocket your keys are in.

Door lock replacement and upgrades

When fitting a new lock I recommend British Standard BS3621. These locks are insurance approved, with security features that stop your policy being voided. Anti-snap euro cylinders come as standard on every cylinder change I do.

Broken key extraction

Do not panic if a key has snapped in the lock. I carry extraction tools and an on-site key cutting service, getting you back into your premises with working keys in hand, typically within the hour.

Security measures and free site surveys

Burglars can defeat sub-standard window locks and snap cheap door cylinders in seconds. I offer every client a free site survey: expert advice on the most secure locks for wooden and uPVC doors and windows, followed by a free no-obligation quote. Locks fitted are insurance approved, keeping the thieves out and your policy intact.
