What counts as an emergency
A key snapped in a flat door after a night shift, a lock that will not hold after a break-in attempt or a cylinder worn out by wind and salt: the emergency line is answered around the clock with no callout fee if you go ahead.
Being locked out, a lock that will not open or will not lock, a key snapped in the door, or a door damaged in a break-in. If you cannot get in, or cannot leave the house secure, it is an emergency and we treat it as one.
Day or night, including weekends and bank holidays, the price is the same. You get a quote on the phone, the nearest engineer drives to you in Aberdeen and confirms the price before starting, and you pay when the door is working again.
