What counts as an emergency
A key snapped in the door in Newarthill, a back door that will not lock in Whifflet or a lock that has seized in the cold: these are all jobs for the emergency line. It is answered 24 hours a day with no callout fee if you go ahead, and you are told the price before the engineer 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 Motherwell and confirms the price before starting, and you pay when the door is working again.

Emergency locksmith in Motherwell: common questions
How fast can an emergency locksmith get to me in Motherwell?
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 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 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 Motherwell, at the price the engineer confirms with you before starting.
Do you cover Lanark, Biggar and Strathaven as well as Motherwell?
Yes. The ML postcode area stretches from Motherwell and Airdrie out to Lanark, Biggar, Carluke and Strathaven, and the same 24-hour line covers all of it. Tell us the town and street when you call and we will confirm the arrival time on the phone.
Can you repair a uPVC door where the handle lifts but the door will not lock?
Usually, yes. That is typically a worn gearbox or multipoint lock, and our engineers carry common uPVC parts, so many repairs are done during the visit. You will be told the price before any work begins.
