Emergency lockouts
Locked out at home or work? Lockouts are top priority, and we use non-destructive entry wherever possible so the lock stays intact.
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
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
Door only locks if you lift the handle hard? That's usually a worn gearbox or misalignment. We repair and replace multipoint mechanisms.
Learn moreSecurity upgrades
Anti-snap, anti-bump and anti-pick cylinders and BS-rated locks that meet insurance requirements and resist modern attack methods.
Learn moreBurglary repairs & boarding
After a break-in, the make-safe comes first — then permanent repairs to the door, frame, locks and any weak point that was exploited.
Learn moreWindows, garages & shutters
It's not just front doors. We repair window locks, garage locks, roller shutters and security grilles too.
Learn moreCommercial locksmiths
Shops, offices, landlords and HMOs — access control, master-key suites, smart locks and routine lock maintenance.
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.

Locksmith FAQs
If I'm locked out in Finsbury, will the lock need to be drilled?
In the vast majority of lockouts we use non-destructive entry — picking, bypass or letterbox tools — so the existing lock stays intact and you don't need to pay for a new one.
Are your Finsbury locksmiths DBS-checked and properly vetted?
Every engineer is DBS-checked, fully insured and credential-verified. You get a named, vetted locksmith at your door — never a sub-contracted unknown.
After losing my keys, do I need a full lock change?
Often yes — changing or rekeying the affected locks restores control. We'll advise if a security upgrade is worthwhile at the same time.
Is there a call-out fee?
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?
Most emergency callouts in the WC 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.
Why does my uPVC door only lock if I lift the handle hard?
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.
