What counts as an emergency
Late finishes along the seafront, holiday-let guests locked out and doors that will not lock at 3am are all part of life on this coast. The 24-hour line is always answered, and there is no callout fee if you go ahead at any hour.
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 Bournemouth and confirms the price before starting, and you pay when the door is working again.

Emergency locksmith in Bournemouth: common questions
How fast can an emergency locksmith get to me in Bournemouth?
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.
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 Bournemouth, 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.
Which areas around Bournemouth do you cover?
Every BH postcode on the mainland, plus nearby towns such as Poole, Christchurch, Ferndown, Wimborne, Boscombe, Westbourne. If you are not sure, call and we will tell you straight away which engineer can reach you.
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 cover Poole, Christchurch and Wimborne as well as Bournemouth?
Yes. Our engineers work across the BH area, including Poole, Parkstone, Christchurch, Ferndown, Wimborne and the Purbeck towns.
Can you help with a lock that has corroded from sea air on a seafront flat?
Yes. Salt air is hard on locks, hinges and window hardware near the coast, and our engineers replace worn or corroded cylinders and fit BS3621 and anti-snap locks.
