A locksmith who knows Derby

Derby locksmith callouts cover Edwardian terraces, interwar semis, Victorian houses near the centre and plenty of newer estates on the edges. A front door in Normanton can be a century old, while one in Mickleover may be a modern uPVC unit. The phone line is open 24 hours a day, and the quote is free before an engineer is sent.

The DE area runs well beyond the city, from Ilkeston and Heanor in the east to Ashbourne, Matlock and Bakewell towards the Peak District, and south to Swadlincote and Burton upon Trent. We charge no callout fee if you go ahead, a fully insured engineer typically arrives in 15 to 20 minutes, and parts fitted carry a 12-month guarantee. Engineers also carry common uPVC parts, which helps on the many newer estates around the city.

Many Derby homes are Edwardian terraces and interwar semis with original timber doors that swell and stick in damp weather, which puts old mortice and nightlatch locks under strain.

Locksmith in Derby: common questions

What does a locksmith in Derby cost?

Lockouts start from £39, lock changes from £88 and uPVC gearbox replacements from £89, plus VAT where applicable. You get a free quote on the phone, and the engineer confirms the price before starting.

What do you work on?

Front and back doors on homes and small businesses: lockouts, lock changes, lock repairs, uPVC and composite doors, window locks and repairs after a break-in. We do not work on cars or safes.

Can you fit insurance-approved locks?

Yes. BS3621 mortice deadlocks for timber doors and anti-snap euro cylinders for uPVC and composite doors. Tell us what your policy asks for and the engineer brings the right lock.

Do nights and weekends cost more?

No. The price is the same at 3am on a Sunday as it is at midday on a Tuesday, bank holidays included.

Do you charge a callout fee?

No callout fee when you go ahead with the job. If you decide not to go ahead after the engineer has arrived, a £49 assessment fee covers the visit. Otherwise you pay for the job itself in Derby, at the price the engineer confirms with you before starting.

How do I pay?

When the job is finished. Card, cash or bank transfer, and you get a written receipt you can use for an insurance claim.

Do you cover Ilkeston, Burton upon Trent and Matlock as well as Derby?

Yes. The DE area includes Ilkeston, Swadlincote and Burton upon Trent as well as Matlock, Belper, Ashbourne and Bakewell. The same 24 hour line, no callout fee if you go ahead, and free phone quote apply throughout.

My timber door swells and sticks in wet weather. Is that a lock problem?

It can be either. A swollen door can stop a lock from throwing, so the engineer checks the door, the lock and the keep before suggesting a repair or a replacement. The price is confirmed with you before work begins.
