Security upgrades

Insurance-approved locks, fitted in one visit.

Most break-ins in Bristol come through a snapped euro cylinder or a thirty-year-old night latch. We upgrade both in under an hour.

Anti-snap cylinders

TS007 3-star cylinders that resist snapping, bumping and drilling.

BS3621 deadlocks

The British Standard mortice lock your insurer asks for.

Smart locks

Keyless entry for Airbnb hosts, landlords and busy households.

Full security survey

Every door and window checked, free with any visit.

Every lock we fit in Bristol comes with a dated receipt and the lock's British Standard rating, so your insurer has exactly what they ask for.

We don't do car keys. Houses, flats, shops and offices only. For a vehicle you'll need an auto locksmith, and we'd rather tell you that straight than waste your evening.

Areas we cover

Engineers based locally, so a lockout at midnight doesn't mean waiting until breakfast. Pop your postcode in the form and we'll confirm the nearest van.

Frequently asked questions

I've just been burgled. What should I do?

Call the police first and get a crime reference number, then call us. We'll secure the property the same day, repair the door and frame, fit new locks, and give you a written report for your insurance claim.

Do you do car keys?

No. We're a residential and commercial locksmith and we don't cut or programme vehicle keys. For a car lockout you'll want an auto locksmith; for anything to do with your home or business, we're your people.

Do you charge a call-out fee?

No. You pay for the work, not for us turning up. We quote a fixed price before we start, and that's the price you pay.

Are your locks insurance approved?

Yes. We fit British Standard BS3621 mortice locks and TS007 anti-snap cylinders, which is what most home insurers ask for. Keep the receipt we give you for your policy.

Will you damage my door to get in?

Almost never. Our engineers are trained in non-destructive entry and open the vast majority of locks without any damage. If a lock does have to be drilled, we tell you first, agree the price, and fit a new one on the spot.

How quickly can you get to me in Bristol?

For a lockout we aim to be with you within 20 to 40 minutes anywhere in Bristol. We'll give you an honest arrival time on the phone, not a sales pitch, and the engineer calls when they're on the way.

Are you a real local locksmith?

Our engineers are based in and around Bristol, which is how we get to you fast. They're DBS-checked, fully insured, and carry ID.

Can you make all my doors use the same key?

Yes. Keyed-alike cylinders mean one key for the front, back and side doors. We do it on the spot when we change the locks.

We accept all major payment methods
