Services & Prices

In order to be as transparent as possible, I have listed the most common jobs and prices on this page. I have invested heavily in training and specialist tools. In most cases I can get you back inside with the lock intact. Destruction of the lock then becomes a last resort - saving you money by not having to buy a new lock.

Some old promotional leaflets have old prices or special offers on, but I will currently honor those offers/prices in exchange for surrendering the leaflet.
Availability - Immediate 24 Hour Emergency Service & Booked Appointments
Available Immediately - Emergency Service - Most of the time I am available to attend immediately or as soon as possible. As long as I am not in the middle of a job or taking a very rare day off I can normally attend right away, I allow time before and after booked appointments for emergency jobs.

Booking Advance Appointments - As it is hard to know how long each job will take, I am unable to give you an exact arrival time for booked in advance jobs. Therefore, I book appointments in two hour time slots. 10am-12pm, 12pm-2pm, 2pm-4pm & 4pm-6pm (for arrival during that time slot). This allows me extra time for longer jobs and for me to fit in emergency work before and after each booking.
My Services & Prices
All items listed below are available at the following prices Monday to Saturday 9am - 7pm
At all other times a one time per visit "Out Of Normal Working Hours Surcharge" of £30 applies.
(Outside of my normal working hours is before 9am and after 7pm Monday to Saturday & all day Sunday and UK public/bank holidays)
As an example opening a lock/stuck door outside of my normal working hours would be £95 (£65 standard price as shown below + £30 out of hours surcharge)
Special Offer - Get £20 off my standard lock replacement prices when you have a new lock fitted at the same time as my door / lock opening service.
Example: Opening a Euro Cylinder lock to gain entry then changing the lock at the same time would be £65 (entry) + £65 (lock) minus the £20 discount so a total of £110

Servicing & Adjusting

Is your door hard to lock or open. It could be that your door has dropped and just needs adjusting, or the lock may need servicing. Let me adjust your hinges or clean, lubricate and adjust the lock.

Other Odd Jobs


Inspection / Give Advice / Problem Diagnosis ETC

Sometimes I attend jobs to take a lock apart to find the problem and the customer then decides to either do the job themselves or leave it as it is. Sometimes a customer wants me to come and have a look to check over their locks and give advice on what they should upgrade etc. This is a charge for those sorts of visits that do not require any extra service/work.

* Note: This charge is ONLY for when other services are not required on the same visit. You do not pay this when I diagnose the problem and then replace a lock etc at the same time.

Lock Inspection
First half hour
£45
+ £20 for each extra half hour
(Rounded up to full half hours)

Other Little Fixes ETC

This is a charge for visits that do not fit into any other service listed and just require a small little tweak or very minor fix.

Minor Fixes
£45
(This is my minimum charge)

Lock Repair


Lock Fixing

I stock a range of parts for a whole variety of locks so sometimes a broken lock can simply be fixed. They don't make some locks anymore but some of those good old locks can be brought back to life.

Locks Repaired
From
£45
Plus Parts

*Please Note: sometimes it is cheaper to replace a lock rather than to fix it (because of the time involved in taking it apart and putting it back together) and better if other parts are very worn. I will let you know if a lock can be fixed and if I think that it is worth fixing or not.

Temporary Door Securing


uPVC Overnight Locks

If a door can't be fixed upon attending or if the required part needs to be ordered in then we might be able to secure the door using a uPVC overnight lock. This is a temporary lock which uses your existing Euro Cylinder to lock the door while waiting for the correct part.

Can be FREE The current cost of supplying and fitting a temporary overnight lock is £95. If you book an appointment for the fitting of the replacement lock within 14 days of the date that we contact you to let you know that it's available, then we can take back the overnight lock and take the £95 off the price of the ordered replacement lock. (subject to terms and conditions as shown on the receipt)
