What counts as an emergency
A door left insecure after a break-in in Walker, or a lock that has seized in Benwell, cannot wait until morning. We answer around the clock, quote for free on the phone and confirm the price before 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 Newcastle and confirms the price before starting, and you pay when the door is working again.

Emergency locksmith in Newcastle: common questions
How fast can an emergency locksmith get to me in Newcastle?
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 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.
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.
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 you cover Gateshead, North Tyneside and Northumberland as well as Newcastle?
Yes. The NE postcode area stretches from Gateshead and Wallsend to Whitley Bay, Morpeth and Hexham, and one 24-hour number covers it.
Does sea air really affect door locks on the Northumberland coast?
Salt air can corrode external lock cases, cylinders and uPVC hardware over time, so seafront properties in Whitley Bay and Tynemouth may need parts replaced sooner. If a lock is stiff or rusty, call us and the engineer will tell you whether to repair or replace it.
