Stephen
Archie was fantastic. He deserves the five stars given. Not only did he come in at the budget provided, but communicated several times and promptly on text and email. He arrived on time and even though we had supplied him with what a keylock company had said we needed - it was wrong - he went out and got the correct locks that were needed for the job and never charged extra or anything. He sent us an invoice after the job and we paid him. Simple. What a joy to get 5 star service in the current climate.

- Emergency key cutting services, so you can duplicate a set of keys quickly
- Broken key extraction to safely remove a key that has broken inside a lock

It’s really important that you choose a reliable emergency locksmith company to carry out work on your locks. Failing to do this can cause stress and expensive repairs.

- The cost of any parts and materials your emergency locksmith might need to fix your problem

Should I change my locks if my keys are lost or stolen?
If you can’t find your keys, and you aren’t sure if you lost them or if somebody stole them, you might be wondering what the best thing to do is. First, retrace your steps and look in surrounding areas in case you dropped them on your way home or left them in a coffee shop or at work.
If you still can’t find them, it’s highly recommended that you change your locks as soon as possible. This is regardless of whether you have a spare set of keys or a family member who can let you in.
You should replace lost or stolen keys because:
- You may think you lost them but they were actually stolen (with the intention of breaking into your home)
- If your home is burgled without any sign of entry, not changing your locks could invalidate your insurance policy
- You won’t have peace of mind that your home security is up to scratch and that your home is protected from a potential break in attempt
When it comes to protecting your loved ones and your belongings, you can never be too careful. Speak to an emergency locksmith today to get a mobile locksmith to replace your locks within twenty-four hours.
Questions to ask a 24 hour emergency locksmith
Make sure you ask your emergency locksmith these questions before you hire to ensure you’re making the right decision:
Are you licensed and insured?
Make sure to always ask your emergency locksmith company what insurance they have before you hire them. While it’s not a requirement, it’s a good idea for your lock installation specialist to have public liability insurance to cover you and them against any accidental damage done to your home or personal injuries. This will guarantee protection for both parties.
How much will the job cost?
Asking how much your emergency locksmith job will cost will help you budget for your project and will ensure price transparency before you hire. How much you’ll end up spending depends on the scope of your project, and where you live in the UK, so make sure you add plenty of details when you post a job.
How many years of experience do you have?
Knowing how many years of experience your emergency locksmith has will allow you to pick a tradesperson who you are confident has sufficient expertise to carry out a high quality job. When you’re finding a locksmith through Rated People, head over to their profile to check out the pictures on their work gallery and their ratings and reviews.

I used this company to fit internal and external door locks to a property I rent out in Coventry which is 100 miles away from my home. Excellent immediate service. From initial contact through to the finished job, this company responded immediately, sometimes late in the evening and charging a fair price. They dealt with my tenants direct and invoiced me at my home. They are now firmly in my address book and I will be my ‘go to’ locksmith in future. Thank you all.

We are 24 hour locksmiths covering Gloucestershire and surrounding areas. We come to you to unlock doors, replace failed locks, cut keys, upgrade existing locks. I've been locksmithing for over 20 years and have worked at some of the national companies over that time and have seen how some of them treat customers... Without customers we wouldn't have a business and so all customers have to be treated properly - some of those larger companies didn't seem to understand this. The amount of van stock we carry is huge, ensuring that we have the parts to get the job done. I live in Gloucester, and can give a fast response to people who need our services quickly. It's all too easy to call a company that you think is local - only to find that it's based in a town on the other side of the country and that it doesn't have any locksmiths on the books as staff, but rather picks up the phone to locksmiths closer to the customer trying to get the job done and get some commission for it. We are local and don't outsource jobs. I love working with locks and making new keys to something that was useless without a key. I get a real buzz from helping people and making things work again. We seem to do loads of work on uPVC doors - more and more over that past few years. We carry a full range of gearboxes that attach to the full length locking system on uPVC doors. We carry over 60 different ones on the van to make sure we can get the job done the first time of arriving at a property. We're available 24 hours a day 7 days a week, and are willing to answer question and give advice wherever we can. More than happy to come out and give a quote for work. You can then call other companies and get quotes from them - and maybe call us back to do the work. We'd love to do the work for you, but appreciate you sometimes need to get a few quotes. We'll never assume the job is ours, but will give you a free quotation and hope we get the work.
Fast, efficient and even cleaned the locks as a bonus.
