What counts as an emergency
A door that will not lock at midnight, a break-in on a Sparkhill terrace or a key snapped on the way home from a night out in Digbeth is exactly what the 24-hour line is for. There is no callout fee if you go ahead at any hour, and the engineer confirms the price before starting.
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 Birmingham and confirms the price before starting, and you pay when the door is working again.
