What counts as an emergency

Whether a door will not lock after a break-in in Bulwell or a key has snapped in a front door in Mapperley, you can ring us at any hour. We answer around the clock, quote for free 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 Nottingham and confirms the price before starting, and you pay when the door is working again.

Emergency locksmith in Nottingham: common questions

How fast can an emergency locksmith get to me in Nottingham?

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.

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 Nottingham, 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 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 you cover Mansfield, Grantham and Newark as well as Nottingham?

Yes. The NG postcode area reaches Mansfield, Newark-on-Trent, Grantham and Sleaford, and one 24-hour number covers all of it.

I rent a shared student house in Lenton. Can I ring you if I lose my key at night?

Yes, the phone line is open 24 hours a day and the quote is free. An engineer can open the door and, if the lock needs changing, confirm the price with you before starting. If you rent, it is worth letting your landlord know.
