What counts as an emergency
A failed lock or forced door does not wait for working hours, whether it is a city centre flat or a village home in Caton or Halton. We answer 24/7 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 Lancaster and confirms the price before starting, and you pay when the door is working again.

Emergency locksmith in Lancaster: common questions
How fast can an emergency locksmith get to me in Lancaster?
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.
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.
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.
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.
Which areas around Lancaster do you cover?
Every LA postcode on the mainland, plus nearby towns such as Morecambe, Carnforth, Garstang, Kendal, Heysham, Caton. If you are not sure, call and we will tell you straight away which engineer can reach you.
Do you cover Morecambe, Kendal and Carnforth as well as Lancaster?
Yes. The same 24/7 line covers Lancaster, Morecambe, Heysham, Carnforth, Kendal and the villages around them. Give your address when you call and we will confirm the arrival time and a free quote.
I am a landlord with a student let near the university. Can you re-key between tenancies?
Yes. Re-keying or fitting new cylinders between tenancies is a routine job, and the engineer can supply keys for each tenant. Anti-snap cylinders also make the door harder to attack.
