What counts as an emergency
A key snapped in a Great Lever front door, a back door that will not lock in Farnworth and a latch that fails at 2am are all emergencies to us. The line is open 24 hours, and there is no callout fee if you go ahead at any time of night.
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 Bolton and confirms the price before starting, and you pay when the door is working again.

Emergency locksmith in Bolton: common questions
How fast can an emergency locksmith get to me in Bolton?
An engineer is typically with you in 15 to 20 minutes, and within 30 minutes at most. We give you a time on the phone and the engineer calls if anything changes.
My key has snapped in the lock. Can you help?
Yes. We extract the broken piece and, if the lock is damaged, replace the cylinder there and then. Do not try to push the rest of the key in.
Can you secure my door after a break-in?
Yes. We replace damaged locks, make the door secure the same day and give you a receipt for your insurer.
How does pricing work?
Tell us the door, the lock and what has happened, and we give you a free quote on the phone. When the engineer arrives, they check the lock and confirm the final price with you before starting any work. Nothing is done without your agreement. A £49 assessment fee applies only if you cancel after the engineer has arrived.
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.
How quickly can someone get to me?
An engineer is typically with you in 15 to 20 minutes, and within 30 minutes at most. We give you a time on the phone based on where the nearest engineer is right now.
Do you cover Bury and Ramsbottom as well as Bolton itself?
Yes. Our engineers work across the whole BL area, including Bury, Ramsbottom, Horwich, Westhoughton and Farnworth.
Can you fit a new lock on an old timber door in a Bolton terrace?
Yes. Many mill terraces in Bolton and Farnworth still have their timber doors, and our engineers fit BS3621 mortice locks and rim locks to suit them.
