What counts as an emergency
A door that will not lock behind you at midnight in Guildford, Woking or Camberley needs help straight away. Our emergency line runs around the clock with no callout fee if you go ahead, and the engineer confirms the price before any work starts.
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 Guildford and confirms the price before starting, and you pay when the door is working again.

Emergency locksmith in Guildford: common questions
How fast can an emergency locksmith get to me in Guildford?
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.
Which areas around Guildford do you cover?
Every GU postcode on the mainland, plus nearby towns such as Woking, Farnham, Godalming, Leatherhead, Cranleigh, Ash. If you are not sure, call and we will tell you straight away which engineer can reach you.
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 Guildford, at the price the engineer confirms with you before starting.
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 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 you cover Woking, Farnham and the villages in the Surrey Hills?
Yes. The same 24/7 line covers Guildford, Woking, Godalming, Farnham, Aldershot, Farnborough and the villages between them. Country roads in the Surrey Hills can slow a journey, so we confirm the arrival time for your address when you call.
Can you replace the lock on an old oak front door?
Yes. The engineer checks the thickness and condition of the door first, then suggests a lock that suits it, usually a BS3621 mortice lock for an external timber door.
