What counts as an emergency
A key snapped in the door at midnight, a lock forced in an attempted break-in or a door that will not secure after a storm: the emergency line is answered around the clock.
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 Hereford and confirms the price before starting, and you pay when the door is working again.

Emergency locksmith in Hereford: common questions
How fast can an emergency locksmith get to me in Hereford?
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.
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 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 Hereford, at the price the engineer confirms with you before starting.
Which areas around Hereford do you cover?
Every HR postcode on the mainland, plus nearby towns such as Ledbury, Ross-on-Wye, Leominster, Abergavenny, Bromyard, Kington. If you are not sure, call and we will tell you straight away which engineer can reach you.
Do you cover Ledbury, Ross-on-Wye and Leominster as well as Hereford?
Yes. The same 24-hour line covers the whole HR postcode area, including Bromyard, Kington and Hay-on-Wye as well as those three towns. Give us your postcode on the call and we will confirm the arrival time and give you a free quote.
Can you repair the lock on an old timber door in a black-and-white village cottage?
Yes. Cottage doors in places such as Weobley are often old timber fitted with a rim lock or a worn mortice. The engineer looks at the door first, repairs or replaces the lock to suit it, and confirms the price before starting work.
