What counts as an emergency
A front door that will not lock after a break-in in Kingsthorpe, or a key snapped in a lock in Daventry, is not something to leave until morning. We answer the phone around the clock, quote for free and confirm the price before work begins.
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 Northampton and confirms the price before starting, and you pay when the door is working again.

Emergency locksmith in Northampton: common questions
How fast can an emergency locksmith get to me in Northampton?
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 Northampton do you cover?
Every NN postcode on the mainland, plus nearby towns such as Wellingborough, Corby, Daventry, Kettering, Brixworth, Earls Barton. 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 Northampton, at the price the engineer confirms with you before starting.
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.
Do you cover Kettering, Corby and Daventry as well as Northampton?
Yes. The NN postcode area spans Northampton and the towns around it, including Kettering, Corby, Daventry, Rushden and Towcester, and one 24-hour number covers all of it.
My terrace near the town centre still has its original front door lock. Is it worth changing?
Often, yes. Old locks wear with age, and they can be replaced with a modern BS3621 lock, with anti-snap cylinders fitted where the door has one. The engineer will look at the door and confirm the price before starting.
