Emergency lockouts
Stuck outside your home or business? Lockouts go straight to the front of the queue, and we open the door without damaging the lock whenever the mechanism allows.
Learn moreLock repairs
Cylinders that stick, latches that fail to spring back, mortice locks that bind — we repair the existing lock rather than replace it wherever it's safe and sensible.
Learn moreLock changes & replacement
Lost keys, a new tenancy or after a break-in — we change or rekey locks to restore control over who can access your property.
Learn moreDoor & multipoint repairs
Handle stiff, or the door only locks under pressure? Usually a worn multipoint gearbox or a dropped door — we repair or replace the mechanism.
Learn moreSecurity upgrades
Cylinders rated against snap, bump and pick attacks, alongside BS-grade locks that satisfy insurers and stand up to today's break-in techniques.
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
It's not just front doors. We repair window locks, garage locks, roller shutters and security grilles too.

From shopfronts and offices to landlords and HMOs — access control, master-key suites, smart locks and maintenance contracts.
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. Whether it's a lockout, a repair, a lock change, or a 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. The number of locks and doors, and the complexity of the 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 methods first — drilling only as a last resort
- We verify part compatibility before fitting — especially critical on multipoint locks
- Door tested after work: smooth latch, full bolt throw, correct engagement
- A written record of every part fitted and every step done
Locksmith FAQs
Do you charge a call-out fee?
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.
My uPVC door only locks when I force the handle — what's wrong?
It's a classic sign that the multipoint mechanism is worn or that the door has dropped slightly on the hinges. We diagnose which on the spot and either swap the gearbox or re-align the hinges and keep plates.
Is a lock change enough after I've lost my keys?
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.
How fast can you reach me when I'm locked out?
Most emergency callouts in the BR postcodes we attend in under 30 minutes. We answer the phone 24 hours a day, every day of the year, and there's always an engineer on shift.
Are your Plaistow locksmiths DBS-checked and properly vetted?
Yes. Our engineers are DBS-checked and the work is fully insured, with full credentials behind it.
If I'm locked out in Plaistow, will the lock need to be drilled?
Yes — in most cases we can gain entry using non-destructive techniques, so your lock is undamaged and doesn't need replacing.
